For what games do you fail to understand why everyone thinks they are great? I'd have to say Age of Empires II (blows starcraft away in terms of micromanagement) and Chrono Trigger.
Words ought to be a little wild, for they are the assaults of thoughts on the unthinking.

Chrono Trigger
:eek: LIES!

Anyway, I'd say the Halo series is most overrated. I don't really have anything against it; I had a great time playing Halo 1. I just don't think it's as orgasmically good as a lot of people think it is.

i dunno, i disagree.  don't get me wrong,  me and my buddies will still get together every 3 or 4 months to play a game or two of AOE2, but i think they tried to make it too in-depth, too complicated.  it took wayyyy too long to learn how to really play it.  i mean you're managing lumber, gold, stone, and food.  starcraft's just minerals and vespene.

i liked starcraft better :)

but maybe that's just cause i was better at it

Halo is easily overrated and the GTA series (except 1 and 2, those were actually fun to play).

Yup. Going to buy Ep2 as soon as it is out.
Doom 3, now there's an overrated game.

P.S. Prophet, fanaticism is so yesterday.

I think every game which is based only on a "ZOMG!!!111 That's next-gen graphic!!!1111one" thingy is overrated. And lately, many games are based on that :sigh:
