Most over-rated games ever

[Dos Santos Aveiros]

Anything after Wolfenstein 3D. All the same epileptic enducing nonsense. Doom was crap so were the rest.

Don't let nonchalance read this.

 

[Knowledge]

Killer instinct was so overrated.
All the Fifa's are overated as Pro Evolution Soccer 3 is better.

 

[Roonaldo!]

Afl 99.

Agreed, the covenant was good, but the flood was just crap.

The Most overrated game ever is AFL Live Premership Edition

 

[kriles76]

C64 - Double Dragon

Amiga500 - Space Ace

Oh for the days of international soccer on the C64 - now that was a game!

[Roonaldo!]

Cricket 2002 also gets my vote.

They thought they could get rid of all the bogs from 04 edition.......... They were wrong

All cricket games after International Cricket on the NES

You poor bastard.

I'm yet to see one good reason to suggest why Doom and the like were nothing more than just rip offs in the format of Wolfenstein by their produces to suck more money out of gamers.

Wow they all had better graphics. Who cares. At least in wolfenstein you got to shoot at nazis.

OverHyped-
Kevin Sheedy's Coach. I am a HUGE management type game followed. I have all the soccer management games (EUFA Manager, Total Club Manager 2002, 2003, Championship manager) all the cricket ones (ICC 2000 and 2002) and i buy gameslike build the theme park and oil tycoon and make your own airplane company and since AFL i have a huge following for i couldnt wait to get this game. I got it for Christmas and loaded it on straight away and was over it in about 1 hour. I mean you couldnt even do anything in it.

Overated
Turok 2 on Nintendo 64. Everywhere i looked this game got like 9.9, 9.8, 10's ect and i decided to skip my rule (my rule being before i buy a console game i rent it first) and got it a week after it came out and i thought it was absolute crap. Couldnt get into it at all and it was a total waste of like $100.

I agree bar Cricket 2k4 - it's a ripper IMO (on ps2 that is).

Might want to re-read that sentence, dude.
Don't think it says what you think it says.

By the logic I think you intended using, all romance movies since Gone With The Wind have been nothing more than ripoffs to earn money.
All stories since the ancient Greeks - nothing more than ripoffs.
By that logic, we'd be living in caves, using stone wheels and painting on the walls with ochre.

You're entitled to think all games suck, but the rip off argument is moronic, and the assertion that companies wish to earn money is hardly the pinnacle of insight.

Better graphics. Better game play. Better (or at least different) story lines. Better experience for the user. Larging gaming areas. More customisations (mods). And still they stay priced at $50 to $100, the same price as they were 10 to 15 years ago.

M29 best stick to discussing games you've actually played rather than games you've seen at a friends house or on TV.

Who rated Enter the Matrix?
Overhyped, yes, overrated, no.

I played it on PC. It was just ported straight over with no thought for the differences in controllers (mouse and keyboard). Far too easy. And you were supposed to play it TWICE from two different perspectives? *snore*

Had they put some thought into the PC version it could have been a cracker of a game.

For people who like fps war games i reckon battlefield vietnam was poor.

 

[PeteLX]

Leisure Suit Larry 2.

Lsl1 was great, get laid lots. Lsl3 was great, get laid lots, turn into a woman, get laid again. Lsl2 sucked - go on a game show, go on a cruise, end up on an island getting eaten by natives. In the not-nice way.

It's also damn hard, too.

Those Seirra games were ********ing outstanding.

Oh by the way - did you know that a brand spanking new Larry game is coming out in a few weeks?

SOCOM 2 for ps2

Cant agree... I didnt mind BFV. I dont play it very often now but when it was first released I liked it. Fantastic graphics, heaps of vechicles and so many options.

Has anyone mentioned the FIFA series??? the most overated football series of all time.
On the flip side has anyone played Madden 2005???? probably 1 of the best games anyone could who is in to top notch sport sims could ask for, i rated it very highly and is a must get for the hardcore sport gamers.

cheers
