Nothing could possibly live up to the massive hype and my subsequent overestimation of what those last two were going to deliver. Just let myself get too psyched. I appreciate others have different opinions of WD but a cell-shaded, linear, cartoon with zero replay value should not be getting a high review score while games that required ten times the effort and talent to make get high 70s and low 80s. I thought the first Bioshock was a bit overrated but this latest was fawned over to a ridiculous degree. Good game, maybe very good but nothing I'd want to play more than twice. GTA is the poster boy for early gen review-score hysteria. Nothing will ever deserve a perfect 10 imo.

Crysis 1 was another overly hyped game but I could only guestimate from playing 2 so I didn't put either in my 'top' 5.
