Most Overrated Game ever? A pointless rant

Well, I've always felt like Halo was overrated. When I played the original Halo, I thought it was fun but it didn't equal the hype I had heard before hand. Besides, when I hear most overrated game ever, Final Fantasy VII immediately comes to mind.

I think FF7 is overcredited, I much prefer older titles in the series. However I won't argue that FF7 did some things we hadn't really seen before. It even pushed in the FMV sequences into the main stream and they held there for quite some time and are still holding on.  The only thing I can think of Halo having offered when it was new that was fairly rare for console games was, online play. But these days so many games have good strong online play, and more interesting systems then Halo I can't comprehend it. I went to buy Eternal Sonata at Best Buy all the clerks were looking at me like "No halo?" when I told them "I've been playing games too long got sick of FPS in 1994" they looked at me with this blank look like I just spoke some unknown language.
