    What do you think was a really great computer game that never sold well? My picks are as follows.

    1. Planescape Torment
    2. System Shock 1 and 2
    3. Dues Ex

    IIRC, Battlezone I was one of those. Good game, but sold poorly for some reason. Bundling it didnĀ“t help... Another one is Dungeon Keeper II, which got smacked down in the game magazines.

    @corbulo87 - Well, it was my favorite HoMM game and I know lots of people who share my thought.

    Anyway, I must say:

    Planescape Torment and The Longest Journey. I have yet to see someone who have heard or even tried that game.. sigh.

    I agree with HoMM2 - I have never played a demo more than that one although for some reason i never got the game.

    Little Big Adventure 1 & 2 - absolutely awesome but i hardly no anyone who owned it.

    Nox is a fun game, when you get used to the gameplay. I's a nice, simple game for MP as well.
    Since I didn't play much games, this is the only one that came to mind.

    For PS2 it's probably BG:Dark Alliance. I sold it to some of my friends and they love it, even they are unfamiliar with D&D.
    Oh Sorry! You only asked for PC games, right?

    Edit: Heh, Death Rabbit, seems we have an other thing in common.
