not that old, but grim fandango and the longest journey are two good games.

Giants: Citizen Kabuto and Startopia (PC)

Both sold pitiful amounts despite being highly innovative, original and enjoyable games.

There was a Novalogic robot game a long time ago, it was great, and you had to build nodes, similar to UT2004, in order to destry bases, and you piloted one of several different mechs. They were supposed to come out with an expansion pack, but never did cause the game didn't sell. I don't remember the name of the game, but I loved it.

Many others I can't even begin to remeber...
