I've heard barely any hype for Lost Odyssey or Halo Wars, so your inclusion of those is kind of odd.
Anyway, I'd say the three most overhyped games are Spore, LittleBigPlanet, and Fable 2, in that order. No triumvirate of games will so disappoint internet nerds as those three will in '08.
Underhyped? No More Heroes, Halo Wars, Mushroom Men, Too Human, Ninja Gaiden DS, Mario Kart Wii (surprisingly).
"'Casual games' are something the 'Game Industry' invented to explain away the Wii success instead of actually listening or looking at what Nintendo did. There is no 'casual strategy' from Nintendo. 'Accessible strategy', yes, but ‘casual gamers’ is just the 'Game Industry''s polite way of saying what they feel: 'retarded gamers'."
