Seriously, valve makes some awseome original games. That game shouldnt be overrated because it is original and the concept is great.
Another thing to add to the overrated list: animal crossing.
Sure, its fun on the first playthrough, but later on its just GRINDING. Its not fun to repeatedly catch the same fish over and over and finally get the fish you want, or 2 pick weeds.
If they're so awesome, where's Episode 3?
Gabe Newell has feelings too, you know (T_T)

You are now reading this. You just lost the game.
You have just read this. You are also manually breathing.
Do i have to explain it to you?
1: Same thing EVERY game
2: its like ANY other turn based game, except this time you can make ANY monster you meet join your team.
3: It makes no sense whatsoever (entrusting kids with monstrous beast that can cause earthquakes, hurricanes, and other disasters at a whim? Oh, you put an age limit on who can use it. Congratulations, now instead of having innocent 7 year olds playing with their pokemon, we have kids going through puberty and experiencing emotional issues entrusted with this power.
wut!?)
4: I AM ThE MOST LegenDarY MonSteR in ThE WoRLD!!!!!!(next game comes out) I Am the nEw Most LegEnDary MonSter in the WorlD!!!!!!(rinse and repeat)
5: EVERYONE uses action replay. theres no point in even trying to play any handheld nintendo game legit.
6: They pit animals in gladiatorial duels to the unconsciousness. really?
7: What do they eat?! I have always wondered HOW they get MEAT into their diet if there are no real animals, only POKEMON. in fact, i havent even seen ONE pokemon being killed for food, yet in the pokedex it talks about how pokemon lay traps to catch prey. WHAT PREY?
I could go on and on...

I can see why you don't like it, you played a Spanish version!

Sorry, I couldn't resist.
Also I played mw2 for the first time a couple nights ago at a friend's house. Basically I got the feeling that it was a typical fps filled with leveling that resulted in awards that reward kill streaks with the ability to take cheapness to a whole new level by basically flooding the map with death.
Also Halo. Need I say more. The fps genre on general is overrated. There are great fps's out there, but ****ing hell...boring generic uncreative fps's are EVERYWHERE...and people say the rhythm game genre is oversaturated.

While Halo is nothing special per say I can see why people like it so much especially when taking into account of what it offered when it came out

1: They aren't really different games, they're different VERSIONS of the same game. That's why they're called "Pokemon Emerald Version". Because it's not a different game.
2: I don't see how that's a bad thing. I've seen some pretty badass monsters in other games and wished they could come on my team.
3: It was a game made for kids. It makes sense for kids to be the main characters. Now that there is a wider age range, they are making the new protagonists older.
4: It never says that one Pokemon is the most legendary. It just says they ARE legendary. And it makes sense too, because the Legendaries from each version are specific to that region, so people in that region care more about them.
5: Most people don't use Action Replay, and the people who do are just ruining their own experience.
6: In other video games they send kids out (Final Fantasy, anybody?) to fight to the death. This is much more tame compared to those other games.
7: There are other animals, you just can't see them in the games because they are completely useless to the story. Also, Pokemon eat other Pokemon but again, this is a kid's game, so they're not going to show that.
Mass effect 1 & 2 Yeah there's a lot of story and side missions but I just didn't give a **** about the story and the gameplay got repetitive.
Gears Of War: Yeah the gameplay was a bit better then most games but not enough to generate this much hype.
Zelda. This is just my personal opinion and if so many people see something that I don't then I must be the one who is wrong but I think this game series is mediocre and boring.
Assassin’s Creed 1. Fun for about an hour and then it's boring and ****. not putting 2nd game and brotherhood up because I can see they are at least trying to make them better.
Grand Theft Auto 4: Fun for about an hour until you realize you have less freedom then the last game. Where are my cheats that allow me to jump off buildings and live? Where are my flying cars? Where is my sandbox game?
YOU CAN'T EVEN ****ING CAR SURF. Plot was ok though.
Killzone 2. the only thing I could see why people liked this game is because it looked good. but it didn't. it looked average as hell.
I agree with everything you have ever said. EVER.
I absolutely miss the amazing games that were fallout 1&2, though, but I really like Fallout 3.
Legend of Zelda OoT was boring as ****ing ****, I don't understand how it's widely considered the "best game ever made". Yeah, I know, personal opinion and ****, but that doesn't make up for the ********.
Bioshock is underrated, and it's not just another shooter. I cried while playing that game.
I CRIED.
MANLY TEARS.
THAT DOESN'T HAPPEN.
AND IF ANYONE EVER SAYS HALF LIFE IS OVERRATED I WILL SHOOT YOU MULTIPLE TIMES WITH MY RAWKIT LAWNCHAIR.
Also, just because a game is overrated doesn't necessarily mean it's bad. There are some really great games that are overrated. Too many to name, in fact.
One more thing: Guitar Hero.
Fun ****ing game until harmonix stopped. After harmonix left, it just felt like it was about the money. Oh yeah, because after harmonix left, it WAS only about the money.
Want to know the games that guitar hero wouldn't exist without? Frequency. Amplitude. Look up some ****ing gameplay videos on youtube. Rock Band? Love that ****ing game. Love it to death. Highly overrated. Am I going to stop loving it? No. Rock Band: Unplugged? Unsaid sequel to Amplitude. Underrated? Yes. Love it to ****ing death. MW1/2+BLOPS. Fun games. I'd give them a 7.5/10. Not GOTY material. Do I like them? Yes. Best games ever? No. Shitty? No. Shitty fan-base? Yes, mostly. Overrated? Disgustingly. Some people thought that the series started at MW. Go play some ****ing COD 1+2. WoW? I ****ing love that game. People who bash on how shitty it is need to realize THAT IT'S FROM ****ING 2004. Yeah, you were probably 6 then, so you probably don't remember **** about it. Of course the graphics don't meet up with most of todays. Overrated? Yeah, maybe. Fun? Yeah, definitely.
I swear to god, 12 year olds are ruining the gaming industry. I really hate the ****ing world.

You just made me tingle bro, you know... down there..
Everything after CoD 2
Amnesia the dark descent, Sure its somewhat creative; But it had no replay value, i just dont get what the buzz is about.. Not that scarey.
Everything after Halo. It became all about the multiplayer after the first game, And the multiplay isnt that amazing imo.
Minecraft.
Bioshock, The story didnt make up for the lame game imo. [Take pictures of the enemy so you can do more damage?] Amoung other things.

You obviously didnt read the text at the start.
The game isnt mean to just go 'lawlawl i run through every mission' its meant to have you immerse yourself.
Your supposed to play it in dark rooms, and prefferably headphones.
Its like watching a freaking horror movie in broad daylight, friends all around you. it isnt scary, and if it is you have no courage.

The game has to tell me how to enjoy it before i start playing?
It failed to draw me in at all, So what else does the game have going for it? Im not one to get anymore of out a horror movie or game based on how bright the room im watching it is. And if the game truly depends on somthing like that to be any "Better" it shows how lacking it really is, But thats off topic.
Its overrated, Not the worst game ever.

if you were playing CoD while gay people were doing on the couch next to you, it would kinda ruin your game wouldnt it?
if you watch a horror movie in broad daylight, it is ruined.
