its pretty much ff6 with shitty polygons and fmvs. and a gay protagonist.

Borderlands
Far cry
Halo
Kingdom hearts

Metroid prime is easily the most overrated fps if all time. Metroid mechanics are so dumbed down to be shoehorned like what happend to oddworld. At least halo had multiplayer campaign

But thats the best game ever made

Uncharted is overrated as a franchise but uncharted 2 is fucking goat. I think the reason why people suck off a naughty dog so much is because of that one game and crash

why is super metroid on there? no one calls it best of all time, but its easily best metroidvania style game or top 2 with sotn depending on preference.

Entire thing is gameplay with like 3 cutscenes in the whole game

>>319427684
FF7 couldn't even get me interested when I was around 12 years old when I just finished playing 9 like 2 or 3 times a little before that.

It's shit
>>
>Super Mario World
A fine game in its own right, but easily surpassed in most aspects by its predecessor, successor, and primary competition.

>Super Castlevania IV
Babbys first Castlevania game, or better yet, babbys first castlevania game that he actually managed to beat due to how easy it is.

>Final Fantasy VII
It's a good entry in the series, but it doesn't really do anything unique for the series outside of those horribly aged pre rendered cutscenes. Battle mechanics work well, but again, not any better than in 5 or 6.

>Metal Gear Solid
This is not a stealth game. And if you're calling it it a stealth game then you're part of the reason this game is so overrated.

>Goldeneye 007
I'd chalk this up to pure nostalgia but that would be giving the game more credit than it deserves. At the time of its release, their were already more difficult, longer, more capable, better designed, more balanced, better looking, better sounding, and all around deeper shooters available.

>Half-Life 2
There are few games more full of themselves than Half-Life 2. The games best parts are when it actually stops jacking itself off to its engine and let's the player just play. Those parts are unfortunately few and far between.

>The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker
"Bro c'mon, it's not padding, it's not unfinished, you're supposed to feel like you're on an epic adventure."
K

>Bioshock
Dumbed Down for Consoles: The game.
It's literally a shallow, clunkier, shorter shock game with a half assed "choice" mechanic, mostly revered for its plot twist, even though everything after the twist is when the game really goes to shit.

>Halo 3
A step down from its predecessors in almost every concievable way

>Uncharted 2: Among Thieves
Zero replayability.
If you try to do anything other than what ND intended, you're punished with invisible walls and instant death.

>Red Dead Redemption
Some of the most tedious and repetative mission structure in recent memory. Free roaming also gets old very quickly
>>
>>319428459
Nickel back is famous. Are they good?
>>
>>319427536
it's not about the amount of cutscenes, it's about the fact that the "gameplay" is boring, unengaging, cinematic dogshit comprised mostly of traveling from point A to point B and watching your character hold on to some fur long enough to stab a glowing core

the "game" is a joke

Not even a situation where it's "good, but not that good." This thing is actively terrible.
>>
>>319428648

Of course not, you can be famous for being bad.

I'm just saying that just because something is famous or mainstream it isn't by any means bad.

You know that is a fallacy and if you don't like VII that's fine by me, but saying it's a bad game is lying. You know that if it hadn't been famous you wouldn't be parroting any of that salty hipster shit
>>
>>319428686
I thought it was some of the most exciting stuff i have ever done in a game
>>
>>319428640
I ran out of space.

>Additional note on Halo 3
The people that parade this game around were middle schoolers who made the jump from PS2 to 360 and honestly believe Brown and dusty forged maps on sandbox with autistic custom games like "fat man" represent the apex of Halo multiplayer.

>The Last of Us
I shouldn't even have to explain this one.
I will say the experience is superior to say, Uncharted, but many of the same problems persist and at the end of the day, the replayanility and challenge take a back seat to predictable storytelling and MUHGRAPHIX.

I would have put Sonic Adventure on this list, but on the last few years, people have finally started to catch on to how shit it really is.

>>319428976
What did ff7 do that was so good? Shitty polygons. Shitty turn based combat. Shitty characters. Take off your nostalgia glasses.

SotN had its inverted castle, but the balance is garbage. There's only one boss worth fighting and that' not Dracula. SotN is the one overrated. It is enjoyable but nowhere as good as people tend to say.

Why do you think Planescape is one of the most overrated games? Just curious ya know

Ocarina of time

>>319425320
Uncharted is one of my favorite games of all time but I can still admit that 1 looks like shit without nostalgia goggles and the second half of 3 was a 2 re-skin, but aside from a few slow parts, Uncharted 2 was seriously fun, single player and multiplayer.
>>
>>319426664
Playing it for the first time was a really cool experience but it loses the magic afterwards

>>319423952
I'm sorry but I can understand how most of you people will say Final Fantasy VII is overrated, since you hear nothing but praise.

But were you there during release date? The amount of hype back then? I will still stand by and say it's still one of the best vidya of all time. It was such a monuental figure at the time with it's graphics and story. From 2D to 3D was absolutely stunning.

Most of you neo-/v/ cancer will never understand.

Fallout 3 is Superman 64 tier and still some people like it

>>319431817

This. But you know, I'm sure its just because we're "old".

Look man, there are non-ironic Youtuber threads where they actually talk positively about the act of consuming a lot of Let's Plays and such. These kids on here DON'T PLAY VIDYA. So yeah, we're getting old and 4chan is mostly retarded children these days.

Only the soundtrack was half decent, but even that gets stale after being recycled so much throughout the game.

This post is giving me an headache. It's as if you were complaining about Fire emblem not having exploration. It is a TRPG anon, and you wanted a JRPG. You are complaining about the genre here.

You are the kind of retard who would shit on Tactics Ogre too.

It's like everything at ND went downhill after Uncharted 2.

>>319436881
When there is literally nothing else in the game besides fighting in the same squared areas over and over again, yes it's a problem.
>>
>>319437093
That doesn't make it bad, there are quite an handful of good games sticking to those rules.

>Valkyrie Profile: covenant of the Plume
>Disgaea series and a bunch of NIS series
>Tactics Ogre
>Vandal Hearts.
and I'd almost include the Fire emblem games even though the formula is a bit different.
