What's the most overrated game ever in your opinion?

I decided to retry Super Mario Sunshine after giving up on ever beating it back when the Wii came out. And I remember exactly why I gave up. The camera is terrible, worse than the camera in Super Mario 64. It spazzes randomly. The wall jump is unresponsive in the levels where it is necessary, partly because the camera can't stop moving and partly because it just won't work on its own. Mario is way to twitchy and easily falls off of anything narrow. I was thinking maybe I was too harsh on the game because it was my first 3d platformer as a kid and tht after beating Galaxy, 64, and Odyssey it wouldn't be as hard, but if anything I was too soft on it. Sunshine is difficult because it's a partially unfinished mess that needed another 6 months of development time at a minimum. I'd call it overrated as it frequently appears on lists of the 'top 10 best Gamecube games' when it doesn't deserve to be.

Super Mario Sunshine:

At launch, people play: “This game is shit! Worst Mario ever!”

A little after, Gamecube defence patrol: “It’s not that bad, look at world 4 section 16, pretty cool 2 minute segment, AmIright?”

Even more later, Gamecube defence patrol: “You know what, you might not remember, but Sunshine was actually better than Mario 64 in some ways.”

After Mario Galaxy, everyone loves Mario Galaxy, Gamecube Defense Force returns: “These games are great n’all, but it’s no classic like Mario Sunshine? AmIright? Poll people!” and like 14% agree with Sunshine Spartacus over here.

Mario Odyssey gets announced, Sunshine Spartacus’s rebellion has spread to youtube: “Mario Odyssey for the first tone is a sandbox open world classic that everyone has been waiting for since the last sandbox open world classic Mario Sunshine, which is in my opinion the greatest Mario Game ever made?” Some people agree with Sunshine Spartacus, the rest of us are left scratching our heads.

Some of us pop Sunshine back in to play after Odyssey on the chance that Sunshine Spartacus of the Gamecube Defence League is right. The response after playing: “Goddamn this game sucks!”
