After Watch Dogs, Titanfall, and Destiny, is 2014 the Year of Too Much Hype?

All 3 failed to deliver in various degrees, especially Titanfall, but i'm glad that i don't like shooters so i never have to actually deal with this too much lol!

Have you played titanfall? 

 

Funny, as others have mentioned, it managed to be the highest critically acclaimed title gets the most flak. Infamous was hyped quite high as well and wasn't as well rated at metacritic. It should be included in the conversation, surely. 

inFAMOUS didn't receive anywhere near the level of "hype" of these three. That's why it wasn't included (and it's not seen as an, overall, letdown, either). Not saying I agree with anything but WATCH_DOGS, but it makes sense why it wasn't included. Besides, scoring an 80 is within the realm of where inFAMOUS has always scored (being just 3 & 5 points lower than its predecessor(s).

Agreed. I'm just slinging mud back. That's basically all targeting titanfall is. Over 2 million sales, not including all the digital ones, only the bundled on an install base of 5 million and it's also the highest critically acclaimed title of the lot....

 

I can't cut quote trees either. On my phone.
