No, it's certainly not a flop. However, the review battle, metacritic, the election, and Gears 2 has killed SOME of the hype around here, I've noticed.
It is being discussed, just more in the vein of "reviewers are fanboys" instead of "best game ever."
That said, Leo-J made a "best shooter ever" topic yesterday. It's in my posting history.

I don't need your console war.
NO NO, NO NO NO.
