Forums - General - Overhyped and Underhyped games of 2008.

Under-Hyped:

1. Gran Turismo 5

Yes call me stupid or whatever....but This game is severely under-hyped.

I mean it's always been the BEST-SELLINg game for PS...but nowadays Ps3 fanboys are more interested in games like killzone 2 that can suddenly make Ps3 touch heavens in sales..

Prediction - DEFINITE - 8 million + seller....even if my fellow fanboys in USA betray GT, EU & JAP will make sure it gets that high up..this will sell Ps3's A LOT!

2. Star Wars : Force Unleashed

After George Lucas said himself THIS is the "next chapter" in the Star Wars saga you would've thought HUGE HYPE would follow but it's NOWHERE. The game looks BRILLIANT with all the new mechanics their putting in.

I mean SW Battlefront was so heavily hyped....why has hype fallen flat on this one

Prediction - It will sell an estimated 5 million ACCROSS ALL PLATFORMS combined

I DO NOT have a third game

i agree with Star Wars



@wiiforever

thanks I thought I was gonna get flame for saying that

dunno why but suddenly it's like "cool to hate star Wars"



All hail the KING, Andrespetmonkey

i guess cause it's kinda old



The overhyped games are all on the system I don't like, because they suck.

@wiiforever

Well I dunno but imo it's one of the deepest movies ever (story & culture wise)...

It was a play on the general attitude here.

I won't name anyone, because they're pretty easy to pick out.



 

 

@wiifrever

he was giving the general reason most people will call games over-hyped...



All hail the KING, Andrespetmonkey
