I don't see how God of War is overrated.When God of War is always overlooked.No one I know plays God of war besides me they know its a good game but they're just not the type.Plus I never hear anyone hype God of War up.Plus you said that you hate Kratos with a passion but I doubt you even played the whole series.
This is just my two cents.
Everything else I think belongs there.Especially Halo it truly deserves numero uno.

I played the first two God of War games, haven't gotten around to 3 yet because I didn't like the first two all that much.  boringly simple puzzles, horrible generic hack and slash gameplay, no difficulty at all except cheap environmental deaths, and a horrible story in every way.  Character was a complete prick to the point I not only didn't like him but actively wished him to have a pike jammed through his eye hole; the story was poorly told (seriously, I had practically NO idea what was going on until the end of the first game. the sequel improved here but not much better); and it was just...a mediocre game with endless hype for some stupid reason.  Everyone goes on about how awesome it is, how deep and engaging the story is, and how Kratos is a tragic hero, and I just have to laugh.  these people do not know quality storytelling at ALL.
