I didn't know any of those except FFVII were highly regarded.
If VF2 is generally held up as the best of the series or something then I would say it's overrated too. I do like the game (Saturn version) but VF4-5 have it beaten very, very easily. I like the VF series more than any other fighting games (excluding Smash Bros) but VF2 is worse than most Tekken games, every Soul Calibur game, most DOA games, a few Bloody Roar games, Fighter's Megamix (Saturn) and it's on par with Fighting Vipers I'd say. It's probably near the lower end of fighting games I actually enjoy even though it's probably the most nostalgic for me. I will say that it was the best fighting game at the time of it's Saturn release in 1995. It beats the hell out of Rise of the Robots for sure.
Oh Powerstone might be overrated....if people still care about that game, it was good, but I never liked it as much as it seemed everyone else did.
As for Diddy Kong Racing, its good but not as good as most Mario Kart games, CTR, Mickey's Speedway (N64, Rareware) those two Sega All Stars racing games (PS3/360 versions), probably a few other kart games I can't remember right now. It's better than Jak X though, I'll give it that. Again, if it's widely rated above those games, I would call it overrated but I can't say I've heard it getting that much praise.
