Wheelman

Wheelman is an over-the-top open-world driving and shooting game developed by Vin Diesel's development studio, Tigon Studios and published by both Ubisoft and Midway. Diesel himself lends his likeness and voice to the game, which focuses strongly on feeling like an action movie. Gameplay mostly consists of insane driving through Barcelona with no focus at all on realism and instead a concentration of feeling like an action movie filled with stunts and insane chases. If you like crazy fun gameplay more than polish and graphics, Wheelman might be worth a chance purchase.

Re-Volt

RC car racer with weapons and powerups. A lot of fun.

Planescape: Torment

Planescape: Torment is a top-down RPG made by Black Isle Studios (closed in 2003) and released in 1999. This game focuses more on the story telling (the 'role playing' part of RPG) than fighting. It has some really nice and funny dialogs delivered in both voice and text. You can avoid many combat situation by talking your way out of it. Which is pretty nice. The game received very high review scores but didn't sell too well. I was hoping for a sequel after I played through it the first time on my old junky computer way back when.

Wizardry 8

Developed by Sir-Tech, Wizardry 8 concludes the Dark Savant trilogy and is the last Wizardry game in the series. Players can create or import a party of up to six adventurers. Another two additional NPCs can be recruited in-game from a selection of varied creatures. The game uses a first-person perspective with everything viewable except for the party. Combat is turn based and possesses a heavy strategic element. Characters develop with a unique combination of gaining levels and the usage of abilities and skills. This is a game directed at the hardcore RPG audience.

Final Fantasy VIII

In this adventure you control a group of teenage mercenaries and their friends. Plow your way through the nonsensical plot and save the world. This console RPG uses a relatively unique combat system compared to other Final Fantasy games.

The Triple Triad card game is one of the best minigames you will find in the Final Fantasy series.
