Forums - Gaming - Most Overrated game you've ever played

PandaexpressPanda said:
I will be creating a new thread tommorow with a poll including the most mentioned games on here, if anyones got any other big names we may have missed throw em out here.

 

Yeah, I want Little Big Planet on the poll. I demand it, actually. If you want to poll, be fair about it, and don't exclude games because you love them. Outside of this forum, in the real world, you'll find millions and millions of people who would tell you GTAIV was better than LBP. Therefore, LBP should be included because it is a very hyped game, and it wouldn't take much for it to be overhyped, and we should give people the option of selecting it.

I'd be dead certain you'd put Fable 2 even if no one suggested it, so yes, LBP. I suggest it. Make it so, in your pole. Also, I wanna see MGS4 in the poll. Those games have great reviews, but do they deserve 10s? You'll see during your poll.



I don't need your console war.
It feeds the rich while it buries the poor.
You're power hungry, spinnin' stories, and bein' graphics whores.
I don't need your console war.

NO NO, NO NO NO.

I suggest you wait until January to do so, because I have a feeling a lot of new games that are about to come out will have to be put on the list.

I am a Gamer... I play games and not consoles. I have a PC and Console on which I game... I like games. End of Story!

I would have to say COD4. It's a good game, but:

-The single player campaign is extremely short and only decent.

-There is no multiplayer (co-op) campaign.

-The graphics are nothing special. MGS4 and Uncharted prove just what the PS3 is capable of and COD4 is nowhere near this. I know it's multiplat, but I've seen better looking 360 games as well. (I remember reading a Gamespot user review where a guy said that MGS4's graphics were disappointing after COD4. Don't you hate it when people review a game without so much as looking at it? He gave it a 7/10)

- No trophies (lol)

The only thing that was good about it was the online multiplayer, which I will admit was excellent; the class and experience systems are ingenious. But why spend so much time on online multiplayer and neglect single player, even leaving out an increasingly common co-op campaign, just to make the multiplayer good? I guess they didn't have enough time for everything, and so decided to work on one feature.

Why all of these perfect scores and Game of The Year awards? Why does it have the same metascore as Gears of War and MGS4, both of which are far superior?

I would give it 8.8/10.

These 2 tie for me:

Halo 3 and GTA IV - both solid, but neither remotely coming close to the hype IMHO and both clearly not the 10 games they were made out to be (although the MP on Halo 3 was close to it the SP wasn't and I judge the game on both).

LBP I don't think you can judge yet just by its nature. Until we see whether the community takes off or not you're not judging the whole game. So far it actually seems to match the hype anyway - its fun, cute and allows a great deal of creative possibilities. I can understand people not liking it (that's the same for every game) but if I compare the promise to what (so far) as been delivered then it seems to have easily come closer than many other AAA hyped games this generation.



Try to be reasonable... its easier than you think...

Halo, Bioshock and GTA 4



SMG, GTA4, Halo3, FF12 and the Orange box, i found all these games to be equally overrated IMO.



Halo (All 3 of them)
Fable.
Ninja Gaiden II
Gears of War



GTA 4
