which do you think are the most overrated and underrated games of all-time? the games can be from any platform. IMO, most underrated games: 1.condemned criminal origins 2.hitman blood money 3.oblivion(despite all the good reviews it got, it's still underrated) 4.pop:t2t 5.sotc 6.pop:ww can't think of anymore right now. most overrated games: 1.okami(now, don't get me wrong. this is a good game but not as good as the critics are making it out to be) i don't think there are many other overrated games

Wow...I'm glad people feel same about Halo 2 as I am. Halo was great throughout. And altair, POP: WW deserved what it got. It was crap compared to Sands of Time.

@cc-----i couldn't think of any other games, so i mentioned it. but pop:ww ain't crap man. i enjoyed it. but i'll admit that the hard rock music wasn't required and they shouldn't have changed the prince's character so much. come to think of it, it ain't so underrated after all.

pshyconauts and shenmue are two gr8 games that never sold much esp physconauts.
whereas in the case of shenmue it was written as a 5-7 part game(as 16 chapters)and lot of money was put into it(one of the most expensive games ever made with a budget around 70million) sega released 2 parts it did sell but not to the extent sega hoped especially in japan,so the future on whether shenmue 3 will appear is not known.

psychonauts was fracking awesome -- one of the only platformers/act-adv games that i played for 20-odd hours (tho i didnt finish it ) @kc - a lot of reviewers loved JGR, but i think it was way over-hyped. it's use of cell shading was neat, but it ended up being a tony hawk clone... V

pop:ww was severly flawed with its savepoints and the game being ultra tuff putting off a lotta ppl like me who think playing a game is more bout having fun than worrying like giving an exam. Pop : st was much cooler anyday so i dont think pop ww is underrated,it got what it deserved

i felt pop:ww was a good game. its savepoints were well placed and its gameplay was tight. it wasn't so tough either(to me, anyway). so imo, pop:ww wasn't flawed(not even near it actually) save for the hard rock music.
