i remember that, at the time, it was considered extremely graphic for its depiction of certain themes and story elements. parents made an issue about it, and I had to buy the original game with my parent's consent from behind a counter at my local computer store. If you've ever played the game or read the book, you'll understand why. I can't really explain it without major spoilers. It's a really dark and fucked-up game.

but, that's why I don't know if these counted since they're only unpopular now due to them being somewhat obscure and old. they were all pretty popular back in the day.
