Top 5 most overrated games of this generation.

In this thread we talk about 5 most overrated games of this gen. what do you think top 5 are?

5. Call of Duty advanced warfare

Was deemed as first next gen COD with next gen graphics but in the end its same as before. yet it recieve high reviews.

4. The Witcher 3 Wild Hunt

Its not really a bad game but NOWHERE NEAR AS GOOD AS Critics praise it like giving it 10/10. the game has MAJOR flaws. Combat absolutely suck, so is controlling. story is very boring. yes its worth playing game but not even close to bieng 10/10. CDPR really suck at making core gameplay elements.

3. Wolfenstien the new order

Game is not only disgrace to series (especially RTCW) but also disgrace to old school FPS. the game was praise like "oh oweeee old schooolz" Old school shooter made by developer of Darkness, riddick (I love this game but still), and resistance??! Old school shooter with iron sight, forced stealth, scripted on rail sequence and too many cinematic cutscenes?? Old school shooter that is very slow paced with sprint system where you cant shoot? thats not old school. Abysmal game.

2. Metal Gear Solid 5 Phantom Pain

This is unfinished game that even has final part cut but recieve 10/10? seriously?? one of the most boring, repetetive game i have ever played. almost every mission feel same. kill soldier x, extract prisnor y, clear checkpost" over and over agian. there is little to no story in game at all.

1. GTA V/Rise of tomb raider (tie)

GTA series has always been most overrated franchise of all time and this is no exception. it make me sick how can everytime new GTA release and got 10/10. only good thing i can say about GTA that city looks nice and feel alive. the shooting suck, the driving suck, missions are boring and dull, story is trash, so is all 3 main characters. GTA5 is just rehash of what we have played many times before.

while ROTR is just exact same as TR reboot which was one of the worse game i have ever played. new TR games make uncharted half life. lara is one of the worst protagonist i have ever ever seen "this is soooo haard"

So what are top 5 most overrated games this generation has produce in your opinion?

1.DOOM 2016

2.METRO 2033/ LAST LIGHT

3.SHADOW WARRIOR

4.STALKER TRILOGY

4. The Witcher 3 Wild Hunt ????????????

3. Wolfenstien the new order ??????

I never said WITCHER 3 IS BAD GAME!! I think its not nearly as good as its got praise.

wolfenstien new order was trash. basically COD with mechs.

Witcher 3 and GTA V are 2 of the top 10 games ever made. Nice troll attempt tho.

You forgot doom.

1. Witcher 3 (by far most overrated)

Pc gamers so desperate for validation basically ignored the fact that it was a shit console port that barely operated on mouse and keyboard, and that CDP had (hypocritically after much touting) jumped aboard the console wagon

A disgusting game with a pathetic response.

2. Doom

A good game much better than expected - largely overrated by young people who have never played a proper fps - not a candle next the originals, Quake I/II or RTCW.

3;. Final Fantasy

Every Final Fantasy game is shit, even the fans admit they are shit - but yet they still hype them. Very odd

4. Metro

Casual highly scripted Stalker for people who would rather watch than play games - waste of time

5. Overwatch

Hyped to oblivion, grossly overpriced, limited content. Team Fortress 2 wannabe.

@uninspiredcup: You should replace witcher 3 with uncharted 4 and metro with skyrim, maybe then I could agree with you once.

Why hasn't Shadow of Mordor been mentioned? It was GOTY, had great reviews and sales, and honestly I've yet to see something so tedious yet praised.

@ianhh6: Agreed, shadow of mordor was a complete joke, that's why barely anyone remembers it.

Oh, yeah... another "overrated games" thread.

I can see this ending well.

Uncharted 4.*

(* I don't really think it's overrated i'm just putting it to make me look edgy and cool to impress other posting here)

shadow of modor

the witcher 3

gta 5

Batman AK

Destiny

Mario Kart 8 - While parts of it are still fun, I've seen some people call this the best Mario Kart of all time and I couldn't disagree more. First of all, it can't be the best Mario Kart of all time when half of the game, the battle mode, is absolutely terrible; without a doubt the worst battle mode in the series. Besides the battle mode, it also has other flaws such as terrible item balance and an underwhelming character roster. The land/sea/air transformation gimmick was also done better in Sonic Racing Transformed.

Bayonetta 2 - I don't understand the perfect scores that it receives. I thought the characters were annoying, the story was ridiculous, and the gameplay was repetitive.

Destiny - Everything about this game is crap. Even the great Peter Dinklage turned out a terrible performance for this game and I didn't think it was possible to make Peter Dinklage boring until I played this game.

Halo 5 - I always find Halo games overrated and this one is no exception. There are better shooter games than the Halo series.

GTA 5 - I find GTA 5 to be too realistic to the point where it feels like I'm doing real chores instead of having fun. I miss the older GTA games that felt more arcadey and fun.

It didn't even feel like Lord Of The Rings, they seem to have got it muddled up with Conan.

I agree about Tomb Raider but you gotta be out of your mind to think GTA V didn't deserve 10/10's.

Add Indie games to that list at number 5. All of em.

How does you not liking or enjoying a game as much as others makes it overrated? Other people love it, you didn't, just move on with your life instead of making other people's matter to you so much.

Gta5. Big turd game

Its been praise by old school FPS fans because they were skeptical before release as it shown wrong marketing. E3 show slow paced console gameplay, then all MP beta suddenly lead to hatred only before the day game released and many people surprised.

Remind me of deus ex hr before release everyone was hating it after release everyone was surprised. so i see no hate for mankind divided at all.

uncharted 4

I didn't think Wolfenstein New Order was bad, then again I waited until I could grab it for $25 and it felt worth it, plus I wasn't paying attention when anybody was hyping it so no big disappointment there. If anything was more disappointing it was the Old Blood follow up.

Xenoblade X. It's a solid 7/10 but anything higher than that is love carried over from the amazing original.

- Largely awful soundtrack

- Horrible pacing with a lot of bad filler (Want to go to the next story quest where you have to help prevent the extinction of humanity? UH OH PREREQ QUEST - You have to help this BLADE member ask a girl out first cause he's ascared! lolzimportant!)

- Poor enemy distribution. The original had a perfect balance of some higher level stuff in lower level areas, they were clearly in their own area that you could go back to and explore later. X is a cluster**** of them all mixed up, so you get really cheap one shot deaths frequently while you're out doing your low level quests. It's just a poor thing to do in a video game.

Doom by far. It's the most softcore game ever made. Very girly girl game.

On serious note: I agree with your list except Witcher 3 and Tomb Raider.

Beyonetta, MGSIV and Journey. I couldnt bring myself to finish any of those games.

Yawn, another one of those topics. Post the most popular games to seem edgy.

I see why you love witcher 3 but tomb raider? its one of those game that i cant describe anything good.

Super Smash Bros. (Wii U) - It's initial cast reveal was fine (when it's guest stars were just Mega Man, Pac-Man, and Sonic, though I never had any problems with Ryu and my stance on Bayonetta has changed courtesy of Marvel's MA/R-rated characters like Deadpool, The Punisher, Daredevil, Elektra and Blade still appearing in a LEGO game), but ONE DLC, being Cloud (yeah, I'm still on this like I am on-disc DLC for Street Fighter X Tekken) was just plain insulting and going against everything Smash was about like CN Real did Cartoon Network, much to the point of Sakurai not only crying over criticism of his appearance (where his partners at Namco Bandai took the criticism of the Star Wars characters in SCIV to heart with Ezio in V, which even they admitted happened), he compared himself to a CERTAIN infamous director for creating A (already mentioned) Galaxy Far, Far Away.

Besides that little tirade over one character, replay value is just even worse than Brawl with a useless board game mode and online is still atrocious. Fine game all around though, but to me, it's the TWILIGHT PRINCESS of Smash, a let down by comparison to it's previous installments.

I disagree with everything you posted.

i respect your opinion. you can disagree or agree my friend

@xdude85: the TC does a lot of overrated topics and posts about games being overrated. Normally he picks games he knows a lot of forum members like, he's actually not a bad troll, I've seen worse.

I lol'd

I agree with COD AW but GTA5 is a last gen game ported, Witcher 3 is every bit awesome as it was received to be, Wolfenstein is better than his beloved Doom, MGS5 is epicness and Rise of TR is a great game.

Uncharted 4

Rise of the Tomb Raider

Titanfall

Good games but they are overrated.

How's life on the edge OP?

I'm with you on that I don't think Smash 4 is as amazing as some people make it out to be, due to it having a bunch of garbage, BS content outside of it's great multiplayer smash stuff.

But how is Cloud against what makes Smash, Smash? Is it the fact that he wasn't a NIntendo created character? Sonic and Snake in Brawl already kinda tossed those rules in the trash, and then we later got Megaman, Pacman, and Ryu.

It's clear to see that Smash went from "have Nintendo's iconic or beloved characters fight eachother!" to "have gaming's iconic or beloved characters from any reach of the industry or any part of gaming history fight eachother!" In that sense CLoud is certainly fitting, and I welcome Smash not just being a celebration of only NIntendo, but gaming in general.

Overrated games don't really bug me all that much. There's lots out there that are like "I really don't see what other people are seeing in these games". What I'm more flabbergasted about are those utterly awesome games that everybody either ignores or hates on. An overpraised game not only has to be overpraised but maybe even offensively bad in many respects to earn my ire.

Thread should be titled: Games I don't like cux they too mainstream and cazuals enjoy them and I'm hardk0rez hipster.

So what are top 5 most overrated games this generation has produce in your opinion?

I agree with the new Wolfenstein, but that's about it.

The Division is trash.

1 week gameplay followed by infinite loot grind.

Let's see here... first off, I disagree largely with the OP. My list probably isn't much better, but:

1. Middle-Earth: Shadow of Mordor
2. Wolfenstein: The New Order
3. Dragon Age: Inquisition
4. inFamous: Second Son
5. Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze

There's probably something else that could take a spot or two in there but I can't recall them.

Well I'l be damned, Ghost I assumed this was a reactionary thread about Overwatch since you have been ranting about it... :P

I agree with this list.

anything dark souls or bloodborne - holy hell these games are boring and monotonous

witcher 3 - boring and monotonous with awful, AWFUL gameplay, mechanics, and animation

division - boring, monotonous, bland as hell

black ops 3 - worst COD ever made

destiny - boring grind fest

Bloodbourne is overrated but it is fun. Kind of Arcadish if that makes sense. The Witcher 3 is flat out amazing.

fun fact; you can change the control system in Witcher 3 to make it actually not suck. The default has Geralt walk with way way too much momentum and he can't move very precisely. Change the control scheme and it is actually quite fun, completely changes the game.

Uncharted 4

fun fact - its still a pile of shit. controlling geralt is still like driving a lawnmower on ice
