Red Dead Redemption -- I've seen people call it the best game of all time. Meanwhile, you spend about 50% of the game on horseback riding from one house across a barren desert to another house. But wait! There's things to do in that barren desert! Like rangling a horse, because you know, you want that different color one than the one you have now, or hunting! Because, I don't even know why, I guess you just do it because you're allowed to, and that's why it's fun!

Weird how that works, I found it extremely fun, it just felt really really well done, authentic in a way, if you like westerns I can't get why one would not like it, if you dislike westerns I can fully see the boredom happening though...
Oh well, opinions and such I guess.

I love plenty games, these are some of the ones that just don't click or I feel are bad and over hyped for no reason or because of previous games(Hint Hint that Zelda video which I agree fully with...).

Far cry 2 was very good in my opinion but the third one was half as fun. somewhere along the way they lost something..

I found it to be trying too hard, it was set in an open world but did not utilize it. Also Vaas was a pretty bad attempt at trying to appear "deep and intellectual".

Dude...did not utilize it??? You can fucking wrestle with sharks and hunt tigers with a bow in this game. You clear up pirate camps by stabbing them with a machete in the back, drive buggies over rugged terrain, ride zip-lines and hang-gliders over ridiculously high distances, climb radio towers that give you the feeling they barely stand up, skin animals to craft wallets out of their skins, brew performance enhancing drugs and you can even shoot explosive arrows from a recurve bow...LIKE FUCKING RAMBO!!!!!! The fuck more would you have wanted from it in order to "utilize the open-world"? Riding a tank though the fucking jungle??

Man, makes me wanna play it again, I really hope 4 is good, did you watch the gameplay footage yet? Seems like its gonna be better then 3 even....

Except the missions were cookie cutter following the same Ubisoft game formula of capturing bases and radio towers, their missions did not utilize the open world nature of the game is what I meant.
The animal hunting part felt highly contrived and grindy with you unable to craft items simply because the game said so forcing you to collect other animal pelts to artificially increase play time.

I think FFVII was the biggest waste. (I'm trolling, calm down). No really, freaking Counter-Strike. Bleh.

Why Angry Birds and Bastion. It's just fun to fling chickens at pigs no matter what you say. And Bastion, I mean how can that game be overrated. It was praised because it was good. I finished the game and the game as a whole was damn great. The graphics, aesthetics, tight controls, awesome music and hands down the best narrator in a game, ever. Period.

ok.....
some times i cant really understand whats wrong with people....
if a game is famous it should be and it has to be called over rated (there are exceptions though)...
1.The Last of Us >>> when people calling it overrated or boring the only thing comes to mind is WTF???
i have friends who didnt understand story at all and they just finished the game and all of them where calling it awesome..!!!!
i was talking to them about the story and i found out that they didnt know anything about the story at all...(to make things clear our main language is not english and nearly all of my friends suck at english ...... )
so what they enjoyed was only gameplay and maybe music.....(all of them are out of gaming news like hypes or anything els... if you ask them :hey microsoft e3 event was awesome...they will ask you what is e3?..... most of em have a jailbroken ps3 or x360 a few of them download games and all of em just play it)
But i played The Last of Us because of the story and that was great....(i highly recommend you to play on survivor diff ...thats what this game should be)
2.>>>>>>cod series ...when WaW came out lots of people calling it garbage or say that there is nothing innovative in this game BUT the gameplay was great and the game has lots of NEW things(just take zombies as one there many more)...it also has a great multiplayer...
and now people calling it the best one of the series ......yes Waw was a great game but at its time it was overrated and now is the best huh? ...mw1 was a great game too(both single and multi) mw2 was good but not the mltiplayer just campaign and mw3 has a great multiplayer .....
bo series was the best ones IMO especially bo2..... only garbage was the lastest call of (dog)shit ghosts....
i played the walking dead s1 and i found out that choices are a lot more effective in cod BO2 than TWD S1 .........
so over rated ones imo are cod ghosts and bioshock series..(i just played 1 and infinite)
why: in both of them all of interesting things will reveal at the end(more in infinite) you just kill alot of enemies to reach the ending where the evrything is...so just for an ending that was too much....(havnt played infinite DLC but i heard that their good)
lets make this post longer the other over rated one is lol (im not a pro moba player ) my brother is a dota player since the old one after sometime he started playing dota 2 but somthing happend to our internet(the problem is still resisted) that he couldnt play dota 2 anymore so he started lol first he was calling it awesome but after a while he was calling it stupid shit !!! so he has reached to my opinion i talked to some of my friends(not the stupid ones) and their opinion was the same.....
you know except gameplay and anything else what is really hurting me is that F2p thing about lol which lol is not...Yes yes you can do anything via ingame credit but finally youll endup with paying but at least in dota 2 you have anything for free at the start....
another overrated one is cs series completely bullshit....(i play cs:go alot just because of my friends and laugh)....
another one is GTA V(wanna talk about the recent one ) wasnt really exciting i wanted to get it on pc for multi player but i heard that oc version gonna be full of cheaters so im gonna ignore it too..........
i think payday 2 is overrated too......

So dont judge people whit your limited knowledge and closed mind ........

Honestly I LOVE Bioshock and can see why people hate it, its not for everyone for sure...also calling someone stupid for an opinion is well sorta stupid in itself, by calling Bioshock overrated(Which honestly it sorta is even though its great in a way) he is doing exactly what OP asked...

I know what you guys are looking for. You're looking for someone to name a game that one would never think could ever be called "overrated". I have such a game in mind. Know that I am not trying to troll by naming this game, this is how I genuinely feel. The game in question is Diablo 2. The game is often held up as one of "the best RPGs ever created". I say anyone who actually thinks that has obviously never paid attention to what makes an RPG good. You know what makes an RPG bad? Having a stat system that is counter-intuitive. When it is more important for the survival of your mage class to pump strength and put NOTHING into intelligence because it does nothing for the class outside of adding an insignificant amount of mana to the pool. When all of your classes are pumping the physical stats not because it adds damage but because of all of the stat checks to make sure your character can use better equips you have a deeply flawed stat mechanic. Especially when you consider the stat checks are the one and only real use for the mechanic and the real survivability (in terms of life and damage) in all the classes comes from the items you wear. I wouldn't have such a problem with the stat mechanic if the stats actually did something. But they don't, the insignificant boosts to damage/mana don't add up to a big bonus later on down the line. It remains insignificant.
The skill trees are garbage from the ground up. They liked to boast that each class had 30 or more unique skills. Which sounds like a lot, until you realize that 80% of the skills are just badly designed. Many of the skills are nothing more than filler skills, they are there to make it look like the class has a lot of options. The skills basically fall into one of two categories. The first are the skills that are poorly balanced making them severely underpowered and are never used. The second are the skills that are so poorly balanced they are practically overpowered which is why the builds around these skills are the only builds that are actually viable in the final difficulty.
It's funny because ever since the release of Diablo 3 people have been complaining about the lack customization and how D2 had SO much customization. To which I would question of they ever played the game and then I would remember nostalgia glasses. When Path of Exile came out, many felt that game is what Diablo 3 should of been. I say they're wrong, so completely wrong. Path of Exile is what Diablo 2 should have been.
For it's time Diablo 2 was a very good game and to this day can still be fun. However, even back then, the RPG mechanics were archaic and/or poorly designed. The fact that people still have yet to realize this and continue to hold the game up as a shining example of how to do a game right, to me screams completely and utter overrated in every sense of the word.
