    Hahaha, yeah not so low profile now.

    I'm going to name some one noters: Juggle was great. Brave Man is incredible. Block Drop was recently relaunched and was a pretty amazing puzzle game.

    If you don't have that one yet, why are you even looking for new games to get? That's all you'll need!

    I estimate the time to be about 26 hours at least, that's with prior knowledge of the game (I'm basing that time off of the fact that it took me about 2 hours to beat Case 1 of Justice for All, which is about 1/3 the length of a typical case, and there are 4 cases of that length in Ace Attorney, and one short case.) and not using a guide. Not using a guide and going through a first playthrough should take about 30 hours. That's a lot of time for an adventure game.

    Oh yeah, check out N.Y.Zombies. It's an original and extremely fun and intense zombie shooter. There's absolutely nothing like it on any console that I can think of.

    Don't know if these have been mentioned.
    Some are forgotten, some are hidden gems.

    Orbital
    Ocarina
    Wifi Warfare
    Isotope
    Hungry Shark
    Jelly Car 8)

    Again, some of these were once popular, but you don't hear about them much anymore, however are some of my favorite games.

    EDIT: OH AND PAYBACK!
    Payback is f...I mean goddam awesome!
    I like it more than Chinatown Wars.

    despicable me I quite like, not sure if it counts as a hidden gem with this huge blockbuster around the corner, but few might have played it :D

    I think it's the first game which asks you to pay for the Lite version. This alone will make me stay very, very far away from it :)
