Forums - Gaming - Games that you think, critics got wrong?

Ratchet and clank a crack in time, and Metal Gear Solid Peace walker are the two most underated games ever, they're both amazing!!

I'm going to stick with underrated, then construct a 400-foot neon display with the logo for "Sonic Adventure 2" and start writing a doctoral thesis on why it's the second best game of all time and the critics who laughed at it (especially the treasure hunting haters) are chumps.



Monster Hunter: pissing me off since 2010.

A lot of hate for modern warfare 2


what? the hate is nothing, it deserves more.



Being in 3rd place never felt so good

Overrated:  GTA IV, FF VIII, Fallout 3

UnderratedL Fallout 1/2, Shadow Hearts


WAY UNDERRATED: All things Sir Tech (Wizardry kicks ass) All things Sierra!



Under rated imo: final fantasy crystal chronicles the crystal bearers - really unexpectedly bad reviews yet i enjoyed the game a lot - - - - - - - also, digimon world 3 was simply a blast yet it got a lot of bad reviews

Nobody'd said Lost Odyssey?  Well it's VERY under-rated.  I think that when it came out, people were expecting FF13 to come along and raise the bar so high that they didn't give this game the respect it deserved.  It's a very enjoyable, very pretty HD version of what I wish the Final Fantasy series would have done.  It lacked innovation but is that such a bad thing when it does everything it's supposed to do so well?  Still my favorite traditional JRPG this gen.



You beat me to it.

Overated: MW2.



Underrated:

-Monster Hunter Tri (It deserved mid 90s IMO)

-New Super Mario Bros Wii

Overrated:

-Modern Warfare 2 (because everyone is saying so and I wanna be part of the trend)

-Metroid Prime 3 (I just didn't like it, too repetitive)



overrated: Halo, Call of duty etc.

Underrated: "Tales of" games and JRPG's in general for that matter 0.0
