Anyone even heard of shenmue 2?

GT3 is not a patch on the original.

 

[Josep]

i play neo-geo arcade games like mad! kof2k, metal slug3, all those classic games

 

[sytaylor]

i agree GT3 was a letdown, specially since i spent £280 to play the damn game... bah! thank god for GTA3 and MGS2... but i digress...

overrated... ALL FIFAS, for christs sake why must everyone love those games? its not so bad now but a couple of years ago (fifa 98/99 transition) EVERYBODY loves those games and i was cheering for sega's swws97... i also thought half life, while good on the storyline front (and i mean VERY good), was a bitch to play... FPS' just arent cut out for jumping and sneaking (well halflife wasnt anyways)

underrated: NiGHTS, sure the critics loved it, but how many of you have actually played the game beyond the first level for either character? how many of you have strived to get that 100+ link with a superb combo? not sound familiar? then you havent lived! there are a number of gems on the saturn that people missed... darn it

ok, why the hell am i the only one who thinks that Halo was overrated.
the graphics just dont seem that impressive, only moving at 20-30fps, were as most games should easily move at 60-70fps on that hardware . (plus i think the weapons suck and you can only eqip like 2, there's just more fun to have playing deathmatch Doom II on Win95)
i just dont see why microsoft spent so much money promoting that game when they didnt even have the chance to finish it.

 

[Jaz]

I think Halo is overrated..

And DOA3..

And Project Gotham..

And.. er.. XBox itself..

 

[B*A*G*G]

i agree, the whole system was underrated.
i think the saturn owned, its prolly my most played console to date.
shining force 3 deserved alot more respect.
and it was a good system for porting cps-2 & SNK arcades expecially with Mr. 4 MEG ram cart.

 

[B*A*G*G]

i play neo-geo arcade games like mad! kof2k, metal slug3, all those classic games

hell yeah man.
its funny how the games are only 2-3 years old and already considerd classic's
thats the magic of hand drawn gameplay:sly:

fifa 98 to be honest kicked ass. then it went downhill, the games stopped developing.

uh yeah, one more overrated: final fantasy! never understood the craze about those games. ok, they are good but square could sell blank cds as long as they write 'ff' on the box... lain2:

 

[blizz]

overated:

HALO
DOA3
Project Gotham
Square in general (The Bouncer anyone?)
Dragon Quest 7

underrated

NiGHTS
Silent Bomber (looking very dated now though )
FF8 (god forbid Square make an RPG harder!)
Bangai - O

 

[flow``]

quake 3 wasn't overrated..

and yes the saturn had some great rpg's.. albert's oddesy, shining force 3, shining: the holy ark, panzer dragoon saga, magic knight rayerth..and other great games like nights, daytona usa, sega rally, resident evil, sonic jam, and the list goes on

 

[Malcolm]

/dancing in a circle chanting how terrible max payne was

I agree totally

 

[Raging Fuel]

Wonder boy 3. One of my first games, and still IMO one of the best games ever.

 

[Slougi]

Battle of Olympys on the NES. Hey it was my first game ever!!!

 

[DuDe]

Soul Calibur is overrated. Yeah, it`s fun and it`s a nice game, but there`s no way in hell that it deserves the perfect scores it got in almost every review site. Same applies to the Tekken games.
Underrated : Samurai Showdown 3, Garou mark of the wolves, and System Shock 2 (prolly THE most underrated game ever).
