No, no game ever does.

People expect games to be absolutely perfect, and when it's not, they're disappointed.

That doesn't mean the game won't be good, though.

Well, no game ever does live up to the hype sadly. Just because a game doesn't live up to the hype doesn't mean its a bad game, though.

The game is actually decent, apart from the inclusion of jetapacks which came in after Dark Voids, and that half the ships and infrastructure look like things out of a Mass Effect games, everything else is fine.

We'll know when it comes out.

And no game lives up to the hype. No game.

And no, not even Duke Nukem will live up to the monumental hype its built.

Is it hype or nerdy anger?

I know, I, for one, am looking forward to making Spartan-Boba Fett. Wait...Boba Fett is better than any old Spartan! Hey, video-game industry! I want a goddamn Boba Fett game!

As for the hype it will live up to? I know it will live up to mine. I've learned to not expect too much, but from what videos I've seen...it's gonna be juicy.

they've hyped it as perfection, so i hope it isn't... imperfection is good, so there's something to strive for. it will be good, but it will have it's place

No.

Of course not.

...

Although, to be fair, there is no way to really know until it's been released.

There is a reason I don't follow hype. I place my own expectations, that usually aren't amazingly high, and see what happens. I played the Beta and watched the E3 trailer, but thats about it. As long as armourlock isn't as overpowered as in the beta, it will most likely be good.

My favorite example of my antihype lifestyle is Mass Effect 2. I only watched the teaser. Didn't know anything that was coming. I didn't speculate on wheather it was too dumbed down or not, since I knew nothing about it. Then I bought the game. I was surprised by everything and loved it.

Sure it will! Just look at Duke Nukem Forever! That game has lived up to all the hype!

Seriously though, I highly doubt it. Rarely happens. Just ask Peter Molyneux, the master of overhyping.

If its anything like 90% of triple A games made today, the campaign will only be enough to take up an afternoon, and the entire rest of the game is all multiplayer and achievement farming. Not really much of a game in my opinion.

My hype for reach is coming in sudden bursts, but I don't have really high exspectations. I know the game will good, I will try not fall for the hype.

How the hell are we supposed to know? The game hasn't been released yet, ALL WE HAVE is hype.

If I had to guess, I'd say no, but it would come pretty close.
