I tried to think of examples for this, but for a game to qualify its average critic score should be at least 15 points higher or lower than what I would give it, because 8/10 really isn't that different from a 9 or 7 out of 10, and that really doesn't happen very often. I couldn't come up with a single game that I consider overrated by that much. One underrated game I finally thought of was Koudelka on the PS1, which has an average score of 60, while I would give it an 8/10.

Obviously there are a lot of games I consider slightly overrated, but it's with games like Breath of the Wild that has a 97 metascore, while I would give it "only" 91, or Bioshock, which has a metascore of 96, while I would give it something closer to 85. That doesn't really count as critics "really" missing the mark to me.
