I personally felt that Resistance 2 was seriously the top overhyped game for 08. I was bought it day 1 & was very interested in seeing where the sequel would take me. I would have to say that this game wasn't that much of a change for me than the first game (I am pretty sure I will see most of you disagreeing with me on this, but I respect your opinions). Now as for 09, I would have to say the game I feel that is being extremely overhyped is Killzone 2. I played the demo & did not see one thing that made me say "OMG THIS GAME IS A MUST BUY!!!". I have been following this game for sometime now & have come to my own conclusion that this game is just hyped off of the graphics (Which I honestly don't see as jaw dropping). At the end of the day this is just my opinion & hopefully the fanboys stay clear from this thread. MusashiSensi
I agree with you on both Resistance 2 and Killzone 2.

[QUOTE="dberg9292"]I don't think anyone should be able to judge whether or not Killzone 2 is all hype yet because now of us have had a chance to play it yet. you can't say a game doesn't deserve the hype it's getting before you even play it.rodney130

Exactly! You can't base your thoughts on a game by the demo. Ex. Resistance 1...

Ya this is EXTREMELY true! When i first played Resistance 1 demo, i HATED it, i thought it was so hard and boring. But when i got the game, i LOVED it, and the demo level became my favorite level!!

Overall for 2008, I'd say Fallout 3 and LittleBigPlanet were over-hyped. I didnt really enjoy Fallout 3 and I enjoyed LittleBigPlanet, it just wasnt the "best thing since sliced bread" that a lot of people made it out to be. As for 2009, I see a lot people saying Killzone 2. I'll admit its probably being hyped up quite a bit. Regardless of hype, however, I'm still looking forward to it.

I agree with you on Killzone 2. I personally think that underneath the great graphics lies a painfully ordinary shooter. QuebecSuperstar

Agreed, now whether or not it delivers is another story...

Been playing Killzone 2 for the past week and so far so MEH in terms of gameplay, nothing much over COD4 and COD4 still plays better.

The pros of Killzone 2 are the following:

1) Graphics
2) Very good AI
3) Weapon models

Cons:

1) Bad Cutscenes
2) Bad Storytelling
3) Boring story
4) Sometimes the character models look so bad
5) Hiccups and sometimes freezes for up to 4 secs at each damn frickin CHECKPOINTS which gets frustrating

Still waiting for the multiplayer online, and like I said, so far so MEH. Graphics aren't everything. Sony HYPED the graphics to the LIMITS and kinda forgot to fix the broken part of the gameplay and threw in a boring storyline with boring and non-exciting cutscenes.
