Most Overrated Games

I'd have to go with these 3 games (They're all pretty good games, it's just that the noted issues I had really put me off):

Metroid Prime - Too much backtracking, really dull, lifeless world, and a real lack of innovation.

Ninja Gaiden - Too much trial and error gameplay, a broken save system (saving anywhere should be an option), and derivative

gameplay.

Elder Scrolls 3: Morrowind - Bland world, broken combat system, and too much reading.

World of Warcraft. Runescape. Starcraft. Megaman. (Pick one- they're all bloated, overrated games.)


The list is pretty huge.

Runescape is at the top followed by World of Warcraft. Then Comes dragonfable and adventure quest.

I don't understand how Halo is overrated at all........

Hmmm. This is tough. I would have to go with Wii sports, though. The reasoning, is that the game's control schemes are super-inaccurate in real life, which is never fun when you lose because something doesn't control well. That's my reasoning.

How, pray tell? I would assume that something would cause more than a million people to pre-order it.

Dude, I agree. I think there are much better 1st person shooter games out there. Each to his own, though.

When something becomes super-popular, there is always a counter-movement.

For something to be overrated, it first must be highly rated. Thus, having millions of pre-orders provides plenty of opportunity to be over-rated.
