I expect Halo and CoD to be the main culprits in this thread.

Call Of Duty. I dont think Halo is, considering its an excellent game, and every game of it is worked on hard and has great features. However, throwing COD games out every year just to make money and giving the player the same experience is ridiculous.

Halo definitely. Halo 1 was great but Halo 3 has one of the worst campaigns I have ever played.

Fear.

I didn't make more than an hour into the first one before I realized the controls were awful and the story was non-existant. Thankfully it was one of the few games I purchased used and was able to return and get my money back.

Final Fantasy. Don't get me wrong, I through IV was great, but after that it became PoS in my opinion.

Halo series when played on the 360, I don't like Console FPS.

And the latest COD, It's a good game, but it isn't THAT amazing...

Bioshock because I thought the gameplay sucked.

Halo because people act like it's the greatest franchise in the world when it's not. Combat Evolved was spectacular though.

As for Call of Duty, I think the only over-rated one is MW2. That game honestly sucks compared to the rest of the series.

Final Fantasy. There is no reason the series is so popular. It has had horrible, bad, ok, good, great, and excellent games. Even multiple genres with RPG, TPS, Racing, Fighting, MMO, etc. Everything changes so much with each entry that there is no reason for people to get as excited as they do for everything with Final Fantasy in the title.

Bioshock because I thought the gameplay sucked.

I thought the gameplay and story sucked.

final fantasy. people talk like its the best thing since sliced bread. I cant stand it. While I do own it and like it, my 2nd would be GTA IV. I dont understand how GTA IV got a 10, but Saints row 2 (much more fun) only got an 8. GTA IV was lazy. Bad music on the "radio stations", bad driving, small city, and no car customization.

Halo, except one. That one at least gets an 8 from me. Also GTA, I could only really like one game.

The Final Fantasy series. I never really liked the games. I mean they were fine, but not that awesome as fans describe them to be.

Killzone 2. An average FPS that wasn't the second coming of gaming like Sony fanboys tried to convince themselves and everyone else that it was. Certainly not a bad game, but definitely not a 'great' game. Also loses points because of that Rico idiot.
