Not our fault that games are so good now these days.

halo 3 didn't live up to any hype. I found it quite disappointing. As for MW2, it lived up and went further than my high expectations for it. So yea I'd say there are some games that do

yes lol tottally they are. but you know that MW2 is awesome

I know MW2 looks great but games like assassins creed and fable although they are still great games didnt live up to the hype (hopefully AC2 will). This means that people only or a least mostly buy the big games rather than the hidden gems. I love Eternal Sonata and it is very under rated.

MW2 exceeded my expectations, how ever i found the story quite....short.

RE5-did not meet expectations; however you cant improve on perfection.

well some do live up to the hype but most good looking games don't live up to the hype.

Its how the game compines get you to buy there games.

Actually MW2 does indeed live up to its hype as you can see here.

The game is indeed crazy. I just got MW1 and the game is ridiculously awesome!!!!!!
