Pokemon. Excluding the very first one. Talk about resting on your laurels, the developers keep churning out the same game with minor variations and people keep rushing out to buy it.

Side note: Is FF7 archaic and dated? Yes. Overrated however? No. If you were lucky enough to play it when it first came out, you immediately realized that you were playing a game that would raise the bar for every rpg that would follow. FF7 is to rpgs, what Mario 64 is to platformers.

Guitar Hero
Rock Band
Viva Pinata

SM64 is definately not as monumental to platformers as Super Mario Bros. (the game that essentially started platformers and their popularity), Super Mario Bros. 3 (which really just refined it and shaped modern platformer set-up), and Super Mario World (which I like more than SMB3, and it has Yoshi).

As for Pokemon, I can see why people wouldn't like the 3rd and 4th Gen ones (although I did), but how can you hate Gold and Silver? They took what made the first ones iconic, made the graphics not suck so much (have you seen Charizard in Pokemon R/B?), and practically doubled the adventure and playability. Many people would say Gold and Silver are the greatest Pokemon games ever made.

As for Final Fantasy, maybe I'm just set in my roots on RPG games, but it's just not me. I did like other Square Enix titles though, like Chrono Cross and the Kingdom Hearts series.

Gears of War
GTA

Rock Band--- anything from those guys

There were about 50 used copies of Halo 3 about a month or two after it's release at one of the EB Games stores where I live, the fad didn't last long thats for sure.

Halo 3 has sold 8.1 million copies and was the best-selling video game of 2007 in the U.S

i dont like castlevania never heard of it until i came here

 

[Mr. Awesome/Wack]

best-selling video game of 2007

dude that was 2007 when most of my freinds thought it was cool.

 

[Jaems]

one game that sticks out more than anything.
Final Fantasy VII.

Kingdom Hearts series is also overrated.

So? Doesn't mean it's not shit, just proves that it's overrated and overyhyped. The fact that it had such a shitty turn over rate proves my point that it's garbage.

 

[kevenka]

don't bash on the classic Chrono trigger, it was one of the best game released for its time and I still really love it...

Yeah, because the US is everything? Newb.

IMO the most over-rated games are Halo, God of War (pressing buttons, not fun at all, except in Patapon

), right about everything that says Microsoft or Sony.

Hmm well I like the Megaman Battle Network series, and the star force series wasn't half bad. (pity it's over) And I hear the =y may be remaking the first series on the GBA for the DS. I don't understand why everyone is Pissing on pokemon the first games entertained me immensly when I was a kid, and I do consider G/S/C the best pokemon games ever, and it is about time they made remakes of those great versions

Gears of War 1&2 was great to me!

Halo sucks COD is better
TWEWY its very unique I'll give it that but Knights in the Nightmare was better and with Golden Sun DS on the horizon things might be looking up

I have never played the original FFVII so I can't dole out Justice I like the movie it was epic

C.O.R.E. is way too hyped even though it hasn't come out yet.
I HATE the Conduit it's online was the appeal, but after playing it, it ain't worth shit to me and I'll be selling it soon

the peanut gallery is over and out
