Final Fantasy VII it was easily the worst FF game on the PS1 even the re releases of 1,2,4,5 and 6 on it where all better.

that is an utterly ridiculous statement. ff7 single-handedly ushered in modern gaming.


Opps, I meant to say FF 8 that is the one I despise the most.  Seven is pretty good but still somewhat overrated plus it didn't age well.

Yeah 8 is pretty bad. It has its moments, but it's pretty lacking in many departments. Mainly in having likeable characters. It was a pretty slip-shod title. I also disagree with the other guy though, that 10 was probably worse. Tidus was not likeable in any way. He was a total prat.

Also, I just want to make it clear that I don't think ff7 is likethebestgameever. I'm just saying it revolutionized gaming. But yes, it's still overrated and has not aged well.

I didn't like 10 that much either never beat it on the PS2 but might beat the remastered version on the PS3 eventually.  Never played 11.  Didn't like 12 that much either since it played too much like a MMORPG and 13 isn't that great either.  Skipped 14 like 11.  My expectations for 15 are pretty low.



Around the Network

Deus Ex Human Revolution

Also agree with those that picked GTA IV and Skyrim.



Final Fantasy VI and Oblivion.

Both of which I full on disliked, which is odd, because their sequels are some of my favourite games of all time.



MGS4, Gears of War, Smash Bros games....Oh and for all the people who love team ICO....ICO was a horribly overrated game.



Bioshock. I couldn't even finish level 2 of how bad it was for me. Worst $5 I spent on PSN.



Around the Network

So many...

- Halo 1, 2 and 3. Rigid Gameplay, very, very dated graphically, meh narration. Only the masterchief, Cortana and vehicule did save it.

- GTA IV : A gta where it's a pain to drive cars ? Niko Bellic must be the dumbest and ugliest character I have ever played.

- Bioshock. No much to say, just a bad game IMO. Only saved because of this story but I rarely play a game only for its story.

- All the Assassin's creed.

- All Uncharted except the 2 one.



Almost all Valve titles, Smash 3ds (honestly, I love the series and the genre overall, but that not that one), Bioshock, Skyrim (too many glitches and retarded IA), all Cod games (they're fun in 4-players split screen but that's it), Rayman Origins.... what about the Wii ? I know it's a console and not a game, but I think the Wiimote (and the bad use of it too) ruined most of those awesome games released on that console, I really hate that motion stuff and the analog on the "knuck-something" felt really cheep, and I'll never understand why it was made around an octagon instead of a circle, the point of the analogs is that you can move in a lot numbers of directions.... seriously, Wii is actually the best console I have when I use other controllers lol.



Hey don't click here ! It's creepy !!

I want a PlayStation All-Stars Sequel ! Come on Sony, stop making too many shooters !

I'll make a better signature when I'll have time to do it...

Recently, Destiny. Though not sure if it's overrated or overhyped. Or both.

Well it wasn't rated particularly highly... so it's tough to call it overrated. Overhyped though? Definitely!

Destiny is, by far, the most overhyped game I've ever seen.  



"You should be banned. Youre clearly flaming the president and even his brother who you know nothing about. Dont be such a partisan hack"

Elders Scroll IV: Oblivion. I bought the game because of the great reviews and because it was a Rpg. Skyrim, IMO, was a better game.



I guess Majora's Mask. Maybe I wouldn't say I "dislike" it, but I like it a lot less than I do all the other Zelda games I've played.
