Halo/CoD are just repetitive shootfests! WoW is like having a second freakin' job! I thought that Bioshock was overrated. I think Phyconauts was overrated, primarily because everyone who's played it is completely freakin' insane. GTA IV is a terrorism simulator. Don't try to deny it. Sonic is old and sucks! Mario is for babies! Last but not least: Hi , I'm a self-absorbed ass who believes that inaccurately imitating forum posters and pointing out the futility of online video games debate is funny to anyone ever. If that fails, I try meta-humor. It fails.
Okay, I'll be someone else. A good chunk of Starwars games are overrated, especially the popular ones. If you haven't heard my rants about it before, it is because these popular games were off other games that were also popular. They have basically taken their ideas and put it into Starwars form for most of them.
I'm pretty sure KOTOR is Knights of the Old Republic, MrGoobles.
I think Halo and Call of Duty (whatever number you prefer) are 2 overrated games. There's always talk about them. I know they're both great games, but it's annoying when all I see in the forums are "Halo VS CoD!!" or "MW2!!". Modern Warfare 2 may be a bit overhyped. :/
You ever played Mass Effect? Well its made by the same people. It has a worse combat system then the first Mass Effect, though really it was more based on preparation for battle, strategy, and was the first game(that I have played) to have a moral system. It basically had a Mass Effect quality storyline, MMORPG style combat, and PS2 graphics.
I feel that the most over rated game....well thats a tough choice for me. Prototype would be probably one of the most over hyped for what it delivered.....the only thing that saves Halo 3 is the forge mode allowing for tons of possibilities in custom games, Gears of War had a decent single-player.....hmm.....I guess Grand Theft Auto. Not because it was not a good game and all, but just because of the ratings it got on metacritic(98/100) making it the highest rated game on PS3 and 360. I thought it was nice, but not that good.
Halo series is my vote for most overrated. Decent games, Just too much hype. KOTOR one was good, it was made by Bioware(Mass Effect) Two was ok but not the same. Good games for their time though.
I have to go off on this one. It is the plague that is ruining the internet. Everyone thinks it is so great, are they blind? They are playing a game with horrible graphics, even worse game play, full of a community of kids not even old enough to get out of the booster seat and think cursing makes them cool. This game needs to be put to a stop.
@12466ninja. Guitar hero is not overrated. Like to also point out that you only have 14 posts and as a7xfan said you like 10 or something. I know that makes me only four years older but still i reckon only reason why you think guitar hero and rockband are over rated is cause you suck at it most likely. All games you said were good are shoot'em'up games. You must broaden your game shelves.
