Most overated PC games

-Team Fortress 2 people tend to make this game to look like some sort of multiplayer goddess from the heavens. The "teamwork" thing is another thing that makes me mad.....all multiplayer games where teams vs. eachother have teamwork -_-

-Homeworld 1 and 2 both suck Relic needs to get Company of Heroes more popular and or change what they're doing to the dawn of war series and stop killing it with hyped releases like DoW2.

-BF2 ugly, nade spam, **** never registers

-New WoW-Too easy

-CS 1.6

-Guild Wars sad excuse for an mmo you can beat it and then thats it....you beat it. The PvP was fun though but thats all there was

-Quake and UT I guess cause I was bad at them but holy crap....i did not know what the hell was going on it was so fast D:

-Warcraft(dota) so boring.....

-SCII

Crysis. That is all.

Crysis. That is all.

mw2 is on pc, and so is halo.

well i don't know what people talk about crysis, it is an awesome game, even if it didn't had the awesome graphics, maybe thats the problem of being sandbox people gets lost easy or sidetracked, the game campaign is really good

Homeworld and suck, two words that should NEVER be in the same sentance.

Final Fantasy 14 that game is just down right pitiful

Fine then, remove halo and put GTA IV :roll:

codmw2.. i never want to play that trash ball ever again..

next comes WoW aka maplestory in 3d :P

its about as mundane a game as it gets.. i have never enjoyed it nor have i ever seen a reason to try and enjoy it.. its a repetitive mess everything is just the same task with a different name on it and the pvp is a joke id sooner choke on a barrel of a gun than play it again..

im sorry but if wow is repetitive then ALL games are repetitive... i played it for like 3 years and i was still trying to get some stuff i needed.

TF2, you'd think it's one of the most played MP FPS games on the PC the way people talk about it when in actual fact it isn't. Not even close.

And 1.6 players do overrate their game when comparing it to Source... if you go back and play it, it's not really that good.

definitely modern warfare 2

just glad im able to return that trash after i activated it

Final Fantasy 14 that game is just down right pitiful

i define repetitive as uninteresting and uninvolved tasks..

so boring and repetitive and while i didnt say it was easy im saying that it basically has you preform the same tasks over and over for a different dude for new rewards.. over and over.. and its not interesting.

your in a raid okay.. the boss is standing there waiting for you to arrive.. its never a case of him meeting you.

where's the sense of danger.. oh great he threw me across a room.. he was standing there when i walked into plain sight!

you get a quest saying that bandits are raiding the camp.. you head to the camp and find a bunch of dudes with red text names walking around in circles.. wheres the torhcing of tents, killing of civilians, and other such things one would expect from a "raid"

you go to become a tailoring person.. you sit there hit create all and wait for the bars to fill up as your character rubs his hands togeather.. its not involving at least give me an associated or themed mini-game to make it worth my time! i came to make robes of +9 intillect not watch a dudes rub his hands togetaher as a green bar fills. if i wanted that id go watch a dude eat kfc while he installs windows xp

your told to sneak into a camp under a spell of invisibility.. you wander in the fort or camp or w/e and the dudes are walking in circles thats not sneaking its walking in and avoiding people with a broken texture for a character!

you enter a mine full of kobolds you expect to see hustle and bussle not a bunch of weasles with pickaxes standing around like their all on strike or something..

WoW's rpg elements are null and void.. their a pathetic attempt at assembling a game for a larger audience.. yes it has everything but not a word of it is involving or believeable or good.

fights are shin kickings until someone falls over, gameplay elements are a sham and any attempt at making them unique is boring.. the only thing good about the game is the pvp but even then its 1) elitist(this can be excused many games have elitist pvp) and 2) narrow

you play certain maps using certian rules why cant i play resource control in warsong gulch.. its supposed to be a fight for lumber, make lumber important not some dumb flag! why cant i play play ctf in battle isle.. some sort of law on the island preventing flags from being carried?

you see my point. yes its got the makings of an mmo, yes all the pieces are here but thier in no order, their is no attention to detail, and its pvp aspect is uninspiring and narrow.

i can go to any free 2 play mmo and get that but im paying monthly here and getting expansions with a dedicated service.. i shouldn't be getting the same experience as a dude paying zippo/microtransaction off gpotato or ijji.

WoW is in the same class as every free2 play mmo in the market + a few other notable boring paid for ones the difference is none of the other ones has suckered in 13 million+ players..

as for you folks who smack me for mw2.. i have this and im ranting against it for being a bad game.. until you do you dont GET to argue with me k!

mw2, halo, gta 4
while we are at it. the most under rated would be - NOLF, Deus Ex, Crysis (community hates this for some reason), STALKER.chandu83

i find it kind of out of place having deus ex on your list.. yet you have the invisible war cover as your avatar..

it sjust off. the worst of the deus ex game as your avater yet you hate the better ones/all of them.. hmmm O.o

Homeworld does not suck.

Is that ok to have in the same sentence?

I take it you're one of the guys who played the game, but never learned how to communicate with your team or find an effective role. If you've never played Team Fortress 2 long enough to see how each class balances within the game and how crucial playing as a team really is, of course you'll think that it's just like every other team-versus-team game. But it's not. Team Fortress 2 is unlike any other modern multiplayer shooter in many ways, and it puts more emphasis on playing as a team than most other games.

My avatar is the box cover of Deus Ex. And I said Deus Ex is underrated. Not overrated. As in, its a good game and I like it.

Battlefield 2. I bought it and hated it. Even though the graphics were better than BF1942, the gameplay was terrible by comparison. Maybe I'm just not into the whole modern warfare thing. That and the overpowered jets were rediculous. I'm still very confused why this game is so highly regarded.

I don't know how DX is under rated, it always shows on greatest games of all time lists and whatnot...

If you say MW2 then you might as well say COD as a whole. GTA San Andreas: mess story, bad interiors, broken AI, insane difficult, a lot of gimmicks and hit and miss game play, wonky RPG elements. Its a game of quantity over quality really. biggest_loser

dont get me wrondg other cod games were some good times the first one, big red one and finest hour had its redeeming qualities and codmw1 had some good momments to.. are they over rated.. not really their so-so in that area. but codmw2 is just a dsgrace in terms of consumer appreciation vs game quality.

It never really sold that well. Which probably lead to the dumbing down of the sequel.

As for CoD games, CoD 1, United Offensive were fantastic. CoD 2 was really good, but that's where the regeneration started, and the handholding had begun. Its not a bad game at all, in fact I like it a lot, but the rest of the games were less and less fun for me.

And CoD MW2 did not deserve to sell as much as it did. MW 1 I can understand. It was nice, but MW 2 felt like MW1.1 if you catch my meaning.

BFBC 2 ...

And Crysis was a great game .

Civ 5

Mafia (sorry!!!!)

Mafia II

COD: MW 1 and 2 (once again, sorry!!!)

Half-Life 2 (its good but not THAT amazing now compared to a lot of games)

STALKER (good atmosphere but thats pretty much the only good thing about it, imo.)

I'd go as far as to say that most, if not all, games with a 90%+ score are overrated. There are always a handful of problems and many opportunities for improvement in any game.

The most overrated games in my eyes are 1. Company of Heroes which is just a standard WW2 strategy game no better than for example Blitzkrieg 1/2 or Soldiers: Heroes of WW2 yet it is so highly praised, and 2. Rainbow Six: Vegas which is such a dumbed down console port. It's on the same level as Conflict: Global Terror. No tactics just run & gun. It shouldn't even be called R6.

Half Life 2

Crysis, Cryostasis, Half Life 2, TF2, Left 4 Dead and almost anything made by Blizzard comes to mind.

I find stalker underrated at least . One of my fav fps : main reason is guns and how its feels when shooting , i never played a game where they felt so good and rewarding ; second is dificulty , a lot of modern fps are too easy . Only then comes atmosphere for me , but thats just my opinions.

Anything made by valve except portal, also stalker is overrated.

I personally cannot see what people see in games like HL2 and TF2.

HL2 has a great story but the gameplay is so mind numbingly dumb and boring I could not bring myself to finsh it. TF2 is just plain old overrated, I personally do not see how it requires anymore teamwork than the battlefield franchise. L4D series is probably the worse offender though
