So, it's been a big holiday season for triple-A titles like MW2 and Assassin's Creed 2, so it's easy to over look some of the smaller games with lower production values. Is there anything that you're interested in this holiday season that isn't part of the block-buster crowd?
 
For me personally, I want to play Way of the Samurai 3, because it looks so bad it could be good, and The Saboteur, because that game looks like goofy fun. And boobs.

I don't know if you'd necessarily call it a B list game, but I'm very interested in Demon's Souls.

I buy more B-list games than A-list games. AAA titles are the minority in my collection.
 
EDIT: Oh, as for ones I want: jurassic the hunted, zombie driver, twin sector.

Kenka Bancho was pretty B-list and I've very much enjoyed my time with that, I liked Raiden IV aswell. I had a good time with Demon's Souls whether you count it as B list or not.

Would you call The Saboteur a B-List title? I want to play Darkest of Days for the simple fact that i want to try a WW1 FPS. I know its terrible but i still want to try it.

It's as far from a B list game as it gets... so .. don't even dare to call it one! Or I will find you!

You'll be disappointed about Way of the Samurai 3, then. It's good, and not in a "so bad it's good" way. It really is a great game.

@Slippy: I just meant B list in that it wasn't a big hyped release. I wasn't using the term to reflect it's quality in any way. Sorry if I offended. :)

Demon's souls is pretty close to being a B-list game. Maybe not quite, but it's definitely close. It has very very limited marketing and the production values aren't super high themselves. It's definitely not an AAA big budget blockbuster like Modern Warfare 2, with huge production costs and a massive marketing budget. That says nothing about the quality of the game, just the production values & marketing budget. 
 
As for which B-listers I want to check out, I dunno. Would Tropico 3 be a B-list? I haven't really been following it. It definitely doesn't have a big marketing budget, and it's not from a big developer or publisher, so I'd assume the production values aren't huge either.

Been playing [Prototype] which I guess at this point is considered a B game. 
 
Anyone still playing Demons Souls?  I sort of expected many folks would give up on it by now.  Especially with Dragon Age out.

Dragon Age and Demon's souls aren't even that similar aside from fantasy RPG.

If I was shopping for an RPG & had those two to look at, I think I would pick the better game. :P

 I kinda wanted to play those Japanese RPG's that were put out for Xbox. Infinite Undiscovered, Lost Odyssey. Which is weird because... I hate those games.

They're really awesome, I have all of them. I wouldn't put Lost Odyssey in with that bunch though, it's a much more polished and deeper game.

well if you want just low hyped games
 
Atelier Iris series is pretty fun
Mana Khemia (to bad, mana khemia 2 was the best RPG of 09)
Ar Tonelico
 
also, quality wise, this game is a triple A title but never got the hype it deserved, posibaly the best RPG ever made Shadow Hearts Covenant,

Then prepare for a completely generic ride thats all i can say about those games, in fact of the Xbox exclusive rpgs i've played, only two whern't completely generic, Star Ocean was actually really good, while Blue Dragon also broke the trend by being a terrible game.
