In fact, I would say it is one of the most appreciated on the list, myself, given that a day doesn't go by when someone doesn't annoy me because I have not played he game, and the game itself seems to pop up in gaming forums a lot more than any of the other games on the list.

It may not have been as popular as it should have been, but, myself in opinion once again, I do not think that it got worse recognition than many other games on that list, comparing the quality of the games.
The fact that more people seem to play it now then when it came out infact indicates to me it was underappriciated at its time.

Also remember, that many people here are much/most interested in RPG genre, which means we are more likely to have played/tried out PS:T, thus increasing the postcount about it in the forum, then at many other boards/forums- so we can't really take activity at GB for a good meassurement of public and broad appeal.
