Jericho.
Joking :P
Eternal Sonata. It looks like a JRPG (especially with the fucking-long cutscenes), but the combat system was a refreshing change. Certainly a sleeper hit in terms of gameplay and looks.
And I have a thing for Polka.

I went for Conan. I was looking to be a crap game, but i actually liked it.

Crackdown if only because people thought it was just a meh game with the Halo 3 beta tied to it, but it deserves so much more than that. I still play it to this day, having fun doing the most random shit but having so. much. fun.

it's close between eternal sonata and VF5, but i'm gonna have to go with VF5.
it's seriously the most fun i've had with multiplayer in a long time.
I really liked Overlord, but then again I guess it's just Pikmin. Still I found it hilarious.
Glory Days 2 for DS would be my write-in. It's like Wings of Fury meets Choplifter meets RTS..

im picking crackdown for pure fun factor and the amount of time ive put into it alone. i just got VF5 though and am having a blast just playing with my dad today. such a damn good game.

Zack & Wiki: I have not played this game, but have heard a lot of good things about it. I may never try it and that constitutes it as a sleeper.

Crackdown is one of my favorite games of all time now. It's so much more fun than GTA. :)

That game that was bundled with the Halo 3 Beta. "Crackhead" or whatever.

Crackdown is not a valid choice for this poll. It was anything but a sleeper; it got tons of coverage and sales thanks to the Halo 3 beta. It doesn't matter how much you loved the damn game (though I admit it was good); it's not a sleeper!

if it didnt have a halo 3 beta it would have been a sleeper hit, therefore, it still technically is, and there wasn't really any advertisement for the game either, or much coverage on the actual game prior to its release, the only thing people talked about was the beta.

crackdown- explosions are fun. lots of orbs to collect too.
Crackdown. Best co-op ever.

I voted for Crackdoown, it went from free game included with Halo 3 beta into a real game

Eternal Sonata is definitely a title that more people need to try out. Both Eternal Sonata and Zack & Wiki have been seriously underrated by most people.

Meh.
Crackdown belongs in the GOTY category, IMHO, but what the hell...at least I can vote for it here.

oops late in the process, PUZZLE QUEST is the best sleeper hit.

I would say Uncharted first, and Unreal Tourney 3 second. First, they are on the PS3. Two, they are very fun games (I've never played Uncharted, but just watching it is fun). Uncharted should sell on par with Creed, but it doesn't...yet.

Crackdown will be the title I would say Sleeper. Just because everyone that purchase Crackdown was the way for sure you had Halo 3 beta on locked in. On joining the beta. But then when you finally got to play Crackdown you then realize it was worth the purchase even more. Crackdown had awesome sound and just a different style of gameplay. Which I would say the hole game caught me off guard in how fun it was.

Same, I can't believe i waited so long for it, it adds so many kickass things to the game. way more worth it than the 10 dollar halo 3 map pack.

Those two are DEFINITELY NOT sleepers.

I think i'd have to go with Naruto for the 360. I expected it to not be any better then any of the other games but it ended up being a really fun game to play, though the online sucks ass lol.

Crackdown, since it was said to be nothing more than a free game attached to the halo beta. I've got more time into crackdown then I do for Halo 3
