If you want a game that was overhyped, it's called Fable

 

Yes, Fable was the most overhyped game ever. It was still good, but it had LBP level hype and shall forever be known as a debacle.

 

Here's the crunch though.  The difference between a hyped game and an overhyped game.  You never mention Halo 3 as an overhyped game, but obviously from a media standpoint it was one of the most hyped games.  I think that the idea of overhyped makes a judgement call on the quality of the game.  Saying that Halo 3 is hyped and Fable is overhyped is saying that Halo 3 deserves it's hype and Fable did not based on the relative quality of the games.  So saying that LBP is overhyped is a call on its quality and saying that it doesn't deserve the hype, but I reserve the right to make that call after playing the game.

 

If you do think that Halo 3 was overhyped then nvm, I suppose the argument is moot.
