Fallout. Seems I'm one of the few people who actually think the actual in game videos released of it so far look like sh*t. After the e3 demo I canceled my preorder.stevenk4k5

I didn't find Fallout to be appealing either... hell, as a SERIES I don't see the appeal. Fallout 1 and 2 were incredibly boring.

I hated Fallout 1 and 2 and still do not see why some of my friends loved them so much, so I had no intention of even considering playing Fallout 3 until recently. It is starting to look more like a Morrowind/Oblivion type game set in the future, and that does have potential. I probably still won't get it, though.

When I read the question I translated it to: "What upcoming game are you sick of hearing about?" - That would be Fable 2, LittleBigPlanet, or Fallout 3. Naturally seeming this is the X360 forum one of those stands out more than the others :P

I definately agree with everyone who thinks too human is over rated but i would also suggest star wars the force unleashed as the shots and videos don't look that special but i will be open minded until i have played it.

P.S: I can't believe that Gears of War 2 is cropping up under this topic!!!

Agreed. I've seen a couple of topics dedicated to hating the game.

Too Human and Fable 2. Fallout 3's not getting too much love from the vets and GOW2 is getting shockingly less hype than the first did. Im seeing less "Tis the PWn355!!!1337!!" and more "It looks like a slightly improved version of #1, which isnt really a bad thing......"

What about games that are underhyped? Im thinking L4d should get more attention, who wouldnt like being in 28 days later with a handful of zombiecide shells (thats a shotgun shell if you didnt know)

any of you saying gears 2 and fallout 3 look overated...are you serious? Gears 2 looks epic, you saw the campaign demo, and obviously the online will be awesome. Fallout 3 looks amazing, its like oblivion but with guns and VATS.

Agreed. I've seen a couple of topics dedicated to hating the game.

There certainly have been several such topics, but ever since the demo came out, I've seen a lot more topics (not just looking here at Gamespot) where anyone who does not like the demo gets harrassed about how they can not possibly understand the combat system or they would love the game. There have also been quite a few blogs to the same effect basically saying that nobody who truly understood the combat could dislike the game. Be thankful you have not been seeing those because they get really annoying really fast. I really haven't seen much in the way of advertising for the game, though.

yeah dude, fable 2 looks like crap. It looks exactly like the first one. and the stuff that peter molyneuieusx introduce at e3 that he was nutting over were retarded. More lame interacting through emoticons and the same combat system. As long as games like fallout 3 come out, his ideas are going to be overshadowed by what players really want in an rpg.

[QUOTE="hashimgillani1"]Gears 2, the first one wasnt all that greatgustavog117



Right.
That's why it's been almost 2 years since it's release and people still play it today.
It set the bar for most games and even inspired others.
Whenever I play any game now, I usually don't enjoy it because it was never as good as Gears.
Gears of War 2 will be one of the best games made in the History of gaming.
Bigger than Halo.

That's pretty stupid to let one game jade your view on other games. And sorry, Gears 2 will NOT be one of the best games made in history as, like previously stated, the first Gears wasn't even that great. The only thing it had going for it was being the first game to use the Unreal 3 engine (which is already played out and wack now). The story was damn near non-existant, it was repetitive, and it was way too short. Why do people put Gears up on this pedestal when there are many games that destroy it?

I dont judge other games on a Gears of War scale so I agree it is dumb to do that, but when did you see a 3rd person shooter with a cover system that did it quite perfectly before Gears came out. Lots of people still play, the Unreal Engine wasnt its only good feature, the story was short, and it seems to get better in Gears 2. I accept peoples opinions but some of the things you stated just arent true.

Completley true, Gears ROCKED and so will Gears2. Gears is easily one of the main reason I wanted and eventually bought a 360. I still come back to this game, and honestly I think the game was pretty long but maybe it's just b/c I have college, a job, friends and a girlfriend in my life and don't have much time to play alot. The length was perfect. Graphics STILL set the bar.

[QUOTE="coolspot619"][QUOTE="resident-shell"]You can't really tell whether somethings over-hyped or not until the final product is out. I agree that, based off of the demo, Too Human is over-hyped, but I guess we'll see.resident-shell
That's why there's a forum here asking for opinions...

And how did what I said deny anybody of asking for, or expressing their opinions? I merely said it's impossible to tell what game is over-hyped prior to its release because you don't know if it will live up to the hype or not. If the question was "What game is hyped?" Then anything goes, but to be "over-hyped," a game has to be below expectations.

Its ok too human is a touchy subject in this forum anyways lol,

but neways on topic: I think the most over hyped game coming out is Fable 2, I want it but I think the air surrounding a sequel is a little too thick, but I will not be disappointed is I am proved wrong.
