1. Metroid Prime (GC) - people complained about backtracking saying it is an "old" formula.

2. Warioware: Smooth Moves (Wii) - people said it is one of the worst Warioware games. Many said it deserved no higher than 7.5.

3. Freedom Fighters (Xbox) - Another game people thought GS vastly overrated.

4. Perfect Dark Zero (Xbox 360) - Looked at as possibly the most overrated AAA game in GS history. Most people hated this game.

5. Resident Evil 4 (GC, PS2, Wii...it is also on PC, but didn't score AAA) - Resident Evil fanatics hated the complete change of pace over previous RE titles.

6. Oblivion (Xbox 360, PS3, PC) - People hated how their character never felt more powerful as the game progressed, the repetitive dungeon design, the framrate, etc.

So, are these the most hated AAA games on GameSpot?

The entire Halo franchise gets the *most* hate here at SystemWars. It's music to my ears though.

I think there are lots of games that shouldn't have gotten AAA and lots that shouldn't have gotten lower scores, end of the day, it's all opinion, one mans trash is another mans treasure, on in this case, one mans treasure is another mans "WTF this game sucks"

Where are people saying Freedom Fighter was overrated? I've seen nothing but praise for that game.

Halo is the single most hated series on SW I have ever seen. I don't know why. Sheep and cows are jealous I guess.

Perfect Dark Zeros multiplayer makes it way more worthy of AAA than Assassins Creed.

Most people don't even care about Freedom Fighters enough to bother hating on it, and only a few people hate RE4, most loved it. Halo and Halo 2 need to be in there, Halo probably gets bashed more than any other game.

2. Super smash bros brawl

3. perfect dark zero

4. Halo 2

5. GTA4

6. Assassin's creed

I believe ALL these games got their scores because of their massive hype.

The Halo franchise is amazing.

PC gamers hate it because it was proof that a competent FPS could be done on a console without relying on a Keyboard and Mouse.

Rival console gamers hate it because without it the Xbox would be dead leaving them to continue their worship of the japanese videogame industry. It kept MS in the game and we know how much people love to hate Microsoft.

Out of those? PDZ is hated the most, and while the singleplayer is fairly generic (yet looked great upon coming into this generation), the multiplayer was excellent and had (and still has) a good online community.

Halo is generally hated the most all around, although the series' fanboys are always praising it to the moon, which helps balance things quite a bit.

Assassin's Creed is hated on a lot too, and for good reason since the game had a lot of potential but lacked good combat, had a mediocre story, and was downright repetitive.

RE4 is more praised than hated on, the only people who dislike it are the people who were expecting it to be a survival-horror.

Crisis Core, I personally hate it and FFVII is my favorite game of all time. It amazes me how it can get over a 7.5 anywhere.

Halo usually gets the most hate, and although only the first deserves to be AAA in my opinion they're all fun and much better than what most people act like.

Funny, I bought an Xbox recently for super cheap, got myself Halo 1 and 2, and I stand by what I said before, and what many people here say, Halo 1 is the only complete package, it's got the fun singleplayer and the fun multiplayer, Halo 2 has a terribly boring singleplayer and a better multiplayer, Halo 3 is the same as Halo 2, multiplayer is why you buy it.

Halo gets a lot more hate than Resident Evil 4 or Freedom Fighters (I personally have never ever heard any Freedom Fighters hate, but whatever). If fact, the only game on that list that i think could compete with Halo hate at the minute is Oblivion. Seriously, that list is so much fail without Halo.

Historically, it was Perfect Dark Zero. But Halo 3 seems to be getting a lot of hate around here for some reason. I never saw what was wrong with it.

Halo is the most hated series without question.

Assassin's Creed and Bioshock get a fair amount of hate.

Halo. Fanboys took it from "over rated, but still great" to "actually quite average", to "mediocre", and now most try to get away with actually claiming the game is bad, or even horrible.
