Ok, System Wars, here's something you all can agree on.

This list SUCKS!

http://old-wizard.com/top-10-most-overrated-video-game-franchises

Whoever made this list was either 1. a total Nintendo fanboy 2. a troll out to piss everybody off 3. just plain stupid or 4. all of the above. Honestly, read his points. They're ridiculous.

I almost 100% disagree with that list, some of the series listed there are some of my fav franchises of al time, mainly pokemon...

I agree with many of his picks, but he failed when he said none of the 3 halo games are even top 100 games all time:P

As much as i don't, i could defeintly see people agree with this list. I don' think system wars will ever all agree on something.

Can't be a Nintendo fanboy, Pokemon is the #1 overrated series, but I disagree. I disagree with most, but Sonic needs to die. So does GH.

That list has Guitar Hero in it, so it isn't all bad.:P

This dude is one of those pseudo-gamers that think they are "true gamers" because they prefer SNES games... listen, I am an SNES fan myself but it's time to let it go. It's nostalgia that's keeping it alive.... really, I mean this guy talks about Halo (second greatest franchise ever) and then randomly mentions Super Metroid and Mega Man 2? WTF?

I mean it's his opinion but I mean it's become a trend to think you're all hardcore if you played Chrono Trigger (which is even more overrated than Halo now!). I bet this is the same type of person that thinks Final Fantasy VI is better than VII - even though he's never played VI (but he thinks that because it's the cool thing to do, ya know?)

Resident Evil, Grand Theft Auto, Half-Life, Halo, Pokemon, are some of the best franchises ever. And then he says GTA Is realistic? WTH? Yeah, GTAIV is a little more "realistic" but the fact is GTA III-SA aren't realistic at all.

"while giving a really fun game like Super Mario Galaxy a 9.7."

GTAIV can be more fun than Mario Galaxy.

Oh, but I do agree with them on Tekken. I hate that series so much!

omg did he just diss pokemon? and how can he be a nintendo fanboy when pokemon is first on the listfunsohng

tbh, I think he seems more like a person lost in nostalgia then a nintendo fanboy. He seems to be blinded by nostalgia, this comes to a peak in his reasoning for Halo lol :P

That list has Guitar Hero in it, so it isn't all bad.:P

I agree with all of them being overrated, he missed many games/series though.

That listed passes suckage, and moved onto a new magnitude. Pokemon is NOT overrated.bronxxbombers

Yet you cannot wait to play it on your 360? :).

I just didnt agree with him saying that all the pokemon enemies are kiddy, and it was weak conmapared to FF. Nothing about these guys seem kiddy...at least not to me

I mean I know it had some kiddy enemies like JIgglypuff and Clefairy, but they are no worse then enemies like the Chocobo's in Final Fantasy, or the slimes in Dragon Quest...

Like it or not Pokemon is obviously directed towards a younger audience.

well I Know it is, I just dont like them basically implying that it was ONLY directed towards a younger audience and that it was basically dumb.

So you pretend to like something to prove to MS, which does not care about your existence, how much of a tool you are to them? Come on...

Except for Half-Life, that list was spot-on.

No, basically I am just laughing because I get to play all the PlayStation's big hits on the 360 if I wanted to, and I didn't need to destroy my wallet.

I agree with Guitar Hero/Halo actually.tagyhag

I agree with halo being overrated, I dont agree with what he wrote about it though at all.

hahaha... I hate Guitar Hero.

Otherwise, they fail.

He can't get away with dissing Pokemon. He must pay!siLVURcross

Really can someone please let me know why system wars people like this game more than final fantasy or Dragon quest, or any of the great PC rpgs? As I try to get it but i just can't concive of how you can like this game so much. MY only reasoning is that most of system wars was under 14 when pokemon came out and so they were little kids and that was the thing being advertised and hyped by commercials at the time... that is the only reasonable explanation i can come up with. Someone please fill me in!

To me that list is the perfect example of some random website insulting ten of the most amazing and popular franchises in gaming in order to get tons of hits. But I do have to agree with them on Guitar Hero.

I wouldn't give these guys much in the way of credibility; this is the same website that thinks Oasis is the greatest rock band in history :roll:

Even though SilverCross might think so I have to strongly disagree.
