Games that used to be insanely popular or viral for their time but have been forgotten

Stuff people actually liked a lot but didn't have staying power in the public conversation
Games that were hyped and failed on release like Brink or Haze don't count
Games that people still think about like Team Fortress 2 or Left 4 Dead don't count either but there might be a few on this list because it's subjective
suggestions welcome

I think the slender man games that were popular in 2012 or so should be here

I wouldn't say Poptropica is forgotten but it's fanbase has died down quite a bit, so that's my suggestion.
