Of course, the natrual success of your sleeper hit is irrelevant. What matters here is only in reference to your personal satisfaction-- meaning a game you underestimated, never hyped up or got caught in hype, ect.-- Only for it to blow you away, after giving it a chance. Thus, making it your own personal sleeper hit. It doesn't necessarily have to be a sleeper hit, among the mainstream.A sleeper hit (often simply called a "sleeper") refers to an unhyped film, book, video game, or album that gains unexpected success or recognition. A sleeper hit does not necessarily have to make a lot of revenue, it just needs to achieve a high degree of success relative to expectations.
My Number # 1 sleep hit, was just discovered a week ago-- it's called Zone of the Enders: The 2nd Runner. Its quite possibly, the best game i have ever played. This is coming from someone who has a strong dislike for anything revolving around mechs, but this game is just simply extraordinary. I can't believe i avoided this game for two whole years, only to sit down and go into it, expecting it to be the worst game of all time-- the game completely surpasses my initial expectations. The story is excellent, the battles are amazingly intense, and the graphics are quite gorgeous and very stylish, especially for a game released over two years ago. It goes down as a sleeper hit for me and it's definitely a very unappreciated gaming title, which i can see clearly now. I've only experienced four other sleeper hits this generation of gaming, which all happen to be for the Playstation 2-- this game tops all of them. So here's my list of sleeper hits.
1. Zone of Enders 2
2. Ryu Ga Gotoku
3. Shadow Of The Colossus
4. Street Fighter Alpha 3
5. The Bouncer
You guys(gals) have any ?
