Most overrated game ever..

Spyro? Overrated? A game that gets no praise and crappy reviews can't be overrated, just as a heads up.

Who called Spyro oveerrated? Lol. Spyro is underrated. the best spyro games were the first 3 on the ps1 and only the best.. if you can, get the spyro collection for ps1.. it's worth the price if u can find it.

I had all 3 Spyro games I still think I have one of them somewhere. I liked them as a kid but I never went back to them. I liked Crash Warped alot but I lost it, I still have Crash 2.

I've never played FFVII, so I can't complain about the overrating thereof. But I do have a question, just out of curiosity: if FFVII is so overrated, what's your guys' favorite Final Fantasy?

And Spyro... heh.

I've always liked Hunter, just because he's a cheetah. He's a tad annoying, and I'd like to see his design smoothed out a bit, but still... he makes me smile just for being there.

FF VIII. I absolutely adored that game, which is quite unusual because I'm not an RPG fan and I very much disliked VII. Perhaps it's more about personal taste than anything else, but I really loved the graphics, the futuristic setting, and the overall storyline.

Nononononono. Not like that!

I mean in the advertisements for the latest game (I really should think before I post

) And yeah, every game made after the third instalment has been absolutely crap. I should know, since I own "Enter the Dragonfly" *shudders uncontrolably*

A good example was that I was babysitting my neighbours one day. The three of us, the two kids and myself, were watching TV. Then the new ad for Spyro came on. It was the first time any of us had seen it. The kids were excited, after all, their friends kept on going on about how good the ads were. I, however, was not. But still, the kids I was looking after AND all of their friends at school were absolutely flipping for this ad, and just couldn't wait until they got the game

Halo.

I went there. I've played it. It's crap.

Oh, and Dead Rising. Third party waste.

Oh noes if Nintendo didn't make it's evil

DR is a great arcade style game. Guess I just like gore and zombies alot <_<

Dead Rising was waaaay overrated. If it had come out anywhere but the huge drought it debuted in, it would probably have gotten trashed. The game is just broken. Poor design choices and such. It's still fun to play, though.

And yeah, Halo is way overrated too.

A lot of people mentioned FFVII (I'm not even gonna get into whoever mentioned OoT), and I wanted to add that I stayed away from this game for a good 9 years until I actually sat down and beat it this past May. The reason I avoided it for so long is that I used to carry the impression that it was overrated due to the overwhelming amount of rabid fan-people the game had. Just a natural reaction, I guess. But then all the hype over Advent Children was going around and I ended up hearing some really amazing music from the game, and when I actually gave it a chance I was very impressed with everything about it and became hooked on some of the characters, especially Vincent, who I'd count among my favourite VG characters overall at this point.

Even though it came out in a dry period it still sells like mad though so in a sense doesn't that sorta prove it's successful.

I agree it's overrated but I still love it, though I don't know if I could bare beating story mode again, and the only thing I haven't done is survival mode to get the sword.

It doesn't sell like crazy. Stop saying it does.
