lol never figured the Halo 3 hate was this rampant (don't take the wrong way).

Really? Welcome to the internets.

Final Fantasy 7,I have a feeling people are just saying that because:
A- It popularized RPGs with CGI and cutscenes
B- It was popular. Period
C- Came after FF6

The game's soundtrack alone makes it one of the best games of all-time, and I gladly spent 150+ hours playing that. Also, I only bought it for $15.

Halo 3's campaign was a sleeping pill, but the online makes up for that A LOT.

GTA 4, was the most overrated game of all-time hands down. It was a shell of what made the GTA series great. Bad enough reviewers wouldn't stop sucking the game's virtual p*n*s. (Check IGN's review).

Shadows of the Colossus was overrated? Please leave this thread lol

MGS4 this gen. And FF7 ever...actually GTA4 too. Lots to choose from. Doom 3...err, Street Fighter 4 even. Never seen so much hype for a downgrade in the series...



Of the current generation, yes halo3 would be the most overrated. Its an OK game but in no way does it deserve all the accolades it got, I swear even if it caused consoles to explode it would still have received 10s.

on the ps3 side I would have to pick LBP



All bow to me the VGChartz current reigning 3DS prediction champion 

 Bet with tbone51: Pokeon X & pokemon Y will not sell more than 8 million in 2013

July 2009 daveJ saidTrue the wii has a large lead now but by 2017 the most likely result will be 1. ps3 2. xbox360 3. wii <-- wii's successor launched in 2011 effectively killing sales of the wii

 2009 daveJ said: The wii will not break the 50% marketshare barrier it will go below the 40% marketshare barrier though in the future. VGChartz members: Impossible, youre an idiot that knows nothing about sales

Gears of War 1. Never played a game that had such a high critical rating, loads of GOTY awards, and such praise from players to actually be so disturbed by it all. Generally with the highly rated games I could see how they got that rating even if I personally didn't like it... not with Gears of War. Gears of War 2, though, was an excellent game which I play quite often... but the first was a work in progress that was fixed by the second.

Serves me right for challenging his sales predictions!

Bet with dsisister44: Red Steel 2 will sell 1 million within it's first 365 days of sales.
