i think assassins creed is INSANLEY overrated and the ENTIRE Metal Gear Solid series. Bad camera, badly written story, crappy controls, and completely insane story (especially MGS4). And Halo 2 & 3. REALLY average.

...

Let's get Halo out of the way first, so this doesn't turn into a fan boy war later on.

Ill join the hate parade and say Halo. Also....

Soul Calibur, they really haven't done shit for the series. It is the Madden of non-sports games.

I though that SC4 was a great addition to the Soul Calibur series. Great grpahics, online play and other goodies.

I sense an acolyte of Yahtzee in this one. And by acolyte I mean get your own god damned opinion for Christ's sake.

i never really got into the whole mario and sonic epidemic.but that might be because i wasn't around for their debut and rise to "god" status. that and the pokemon series. red and blue was good for a while but now its just gone dry.

Alright, now lets get this Halo poo poo out right now. I can't give the single player many props, it's pretty generic if it is still well paced. But the multiplayer I can say I enjoy, because it is one of the only games on the console that really takes user skill and makes it important. Sort of like how counterstrike and Unreal do on PC, there is a clear cut line between the good players and the bad, and it's hard to bullcrap your way into the good lineup.

But, overrated, Sonic no doubt, Resident Evil, Soul Calibur IV, GTA4 failed in terms of gameplay, but the story telling and technical feat of the city was impressive. Assassins creed is one of those games where everything sounds so kick ass and brilliant, but then it just turned into a hack and slash. The free running kicked ass and I actually really thought the fighting system nailed the whole timing aspect of hand to hand combat, but they just failed so hard in coming up with a story. But I think everyone will say that, and thus it isn't overrated. MGS4 had its moments of awesomeness, but it turned into an action shooter, and I can't forgive it for that.

Half-Life, oh yah I said it! Mediocre shooting gameplay, redundant gameplay segments and kinda hard to get into the story when Gordan doesn't respond in anyway. The good part is that the characters and story are done very well and that some of the gameplay segments are pretty fun.

Since these two things seem to be the biggest selling points for games these days they really should just start making nVidia graphics demos multiplayer.

WoW

I just don't get it...
It's not because I hate mmo's or something like that I have played a few.
I just don't understand the huge fascination for WoW when you have mmo's like lineage 2.

DBZ games, they all try to add in all the weird flying and glow shit from the anime and either make it piss weak supersayians or just gamebreaking too strong.

You fail for wimping out and using fail instead of giving good reason the gameplay "fails"

seriously, stuff like GTA4 might seem redundent to you hardcore gamers but its exactly the type of thing normal people enjoy. Unless your talking about the friends bullshit, then i can't side with you.

All Halo games besides CE, don't get me wrong they are good games just people think they are the holy grail of the FPS genre.
