Wow...you really don't get excited by many big games.  Oh wait COD, BF, AC, and 2K aren't on your list...

In all fairness, though, he's pointing out games he thinks they are overhyped. That doesn't mean he can't enjoy them.

 

I enjoyed Ocarina of Time, but I also have the feeling that it is overhyped.

I get that I guess but I just don't let the hype build a lot personally.  There's always going to be SOMEONE who represents a game as the second coming but most media outlets never seem to get that overhyped especially for sequels.  There's always a TON of phrases like "we will see" and "perhaps it's not what the previous game was" in those previews.  The most they seem to say is that it gives them the same feeling as a previous game.  If people get too hyped then that's their fault.  I feel like people just push the general sentiment that best suits them.  For instance if I'm a PS fanboy I'll act like Halo 5 is being hyped as the second coming just so I can say it didn't live up to the hype.  Meanwhile I'll say most are cautiously optimistic about Uncharted 4 and act like it's a big surprise if it gets 95 meta or something.  The reality is that there's always a mix and there's always those on each end of the extremes.
