R* is an example to be looked up to. R* isn't scared to be publicly bashed they take on the ppl who are trying to ruin your games like Jack T ( can say his name or i will get sick) so by saying all that how can u possibly call R* overrated by those standards everyone is overrated and u might call them overrated but there is more ppl that say they are the best and that isn't the best argument |
I can call them over-rated because they are a developer who exists on one game title only (GTA) and attention whore like no other company. I don't know of any other company that goes out of their way to create violent games just so that they can be controversial (Manhunt 2 anyone?).
Then everyone claims they invented the sandbox genre which is blatantly untrue, they may have revived it and translated it but it certainly existed before them.
They are not the gods of game developers that a lot of people make them out to be, many many developers make better games more consistently than R* does, Nintendo, Valve and Blizzard are all examples.
