Overhyped games

Here are a few:
Half-Life 2 -I give it a 6 out of 10
- Sucky multiplayer,not enough boss battles,enemies are reused way too much.
- Some say the replay value comes from user created mods... well most of the mods are multiplayer... and will not have any anti-cheating, just like Counter Strike Source.
-They promised me DoD;Source if you ordered the Special Edition box, like a year ago, and still its not realeased.
- Some scripted scenes did not work unless you try again.(most of these got fixed by a patch)
- Sucky Ending
- I just hate valve for not even giving old games like TFC(which still have over 1200 people playing) updates, even a simple update to fix what they have broken(Steam broke a bunch of maps, like Rock2)

It seems everyone liked this game. Its Perfect... right... they all got bought of by Valve.

God Of War - I give it a 7 out of 10
-Boring combay system, with button mashing all the way(some of the Quick Time Events are nice)
-Kind of short, but its alright as long as it has cool gameplay, which it does not. Only 3 bosses, one of them "sucks"
X-play gave it a perfect score, so did PSM.

Burnout 3 vs Gran Turismo 4

Burnout 3 - gets a 8 out of 10
-All the cars are almsot the same, some are useless and can only be used in Crash mode(Like trucks)
-Ghay Enemy A.I, which is practically non-existent,they just appear out of no-where
-Beutifull tracks,fast gameplay,online all these feautres are good, but I just though it was not perfect.After playing the later levels, the game gets very hard, all the trafic starts to straight at you, so you crash and cant never catch up, most the game is made up of Crash modes, theres like 100 of them.

Reviews in the run and X-Play gave it both perfect scores.

GT4 - gets a 8 out of 10
-Licence tests are impossible, I had the auto-pilot cheat on(gameshark) and still could not win most of the races, when I watched the computer play, he seemed to get a speed boost from out of nowhere.
-A.I is riding on rails, thats so 16 bit-mario kart....
-Great selection of cars and courses
-Dont care for online play, but i would suspect everyone would cheat, and use the "Auto Pilot" cheat.They always do.

X-play gave this game a 5 out of 5- Perfect
reviews on the run did not, and for once I agree with them.

This is the state of the gaming Industry right now, crappy games get overhyped, good games get low scores(Resident Evil Outbreak, which got like 4.5 out of 10 in PSM)

I beleive everyone has brain... so decided which games suits you yourself.
