All those games have inflated expectations but that doesn't make them over-rated. Expectation vs result doesn't mean a game is over-rated or under-rated. Under-rated means that the game got less praise after release than it deserves and vice-versa. Since something like GOW is more niche I would expect more people who hate the game to consider it over-rated than Halo: Reach.
Edit: In addition to this, considering that GOW 3 will probably rank with the highest graphics scores and given the numerous gameplay vs graphics arguments coming strongly in favour of gameplay >>>>> graphics in terms of number of proponents, these same people may consider it to be over-rated based on that metric alone if considering review scores.
