Grand Theft Auto IV- This game's overrated, blah blah blah... Overrated=/= Bad. I personally like this GTA better than Vice City, I guess I like the 360 control setup better than the PS2 control setup. Besides, I haven't found much to really complain about the way the game plays.

Hmmm...

How could this game possibly be rated higher?

I don't think people have the same definition of "underrated" that I have.  Several games that were rated higher than 90 on Metacritic AND were big sellers have now been called underrated, including GTA4, which got a 98 (did it deserve 100?).  Also, at a quick glance, several of the top 10 selling Xbox360 games have been indentified as "underrated".  There aren't many games that get a metacritic score of 98 and sell 14 million copies..

Assassin's Creed I could almost understand, but at this rate people will be calling Ocarina of Time underrated soon.


I see what you're saying.  I think almost anything could be argued as underrated though if taken the right approach, be it in terms of the haters, the reviews, sales, what have you.  Basically the reason well reviewed and well selling games such as this and RE5 are listed is primarily because of the amount of hate from the gaming community in general, or what one perceives anyway.  At least that's the logic people who list games such as those are going off of, hope that somewhat helps.
