Overrated games.

Majora's Mask had darker themes than Twilight Princess in some ways, but Twilight Princess is the sadder game to me. Midna and the various characters had me more engrossed with the game and setting.

I guess I understand what you are saying, but fans on forums are sometimes a vocal minority. Many of the casual fans do not even know about Majora's Mask, but still know OOT.

Fair enough.

jesus christ, this quotation box's design is ridiculous.

Anyway, Sonic Adventure 2 is pretty overrated, IMO. As ProJared says, it's a pretty bad game. On the contrary, people keep wanting another Sonic Adventure sequel primarily because of this game. I think it's mainly nostalgia that feeds into it, but it's a pretty vocal aspect of that part. I'm not a Sonic fan, so I could just be making all of this up.

I'm going to play Generations once I get my game modded and so I can use Mario in it. Yes, a mod like that exists.

Fallout4, Resident Evil 4.
Resident Evil 4 was identical as Resident Evil 5, at least on the gameplay..so..¿why people threw shit on Resident Evil 5?

Sunshine is one of the games that started hated/forgotten but got vindicated by history. Much like Windwaker

Because as much as a certain subset of Nintendo/Mario fans love the game (usually those who grew up in the Gamecube era), it has a ton of wasted potential, poorly thought out game design decisions and other things.

I mean, literally half the game is collecting stuff.  Seriously, we love to say how Donkey Kong 64 and it's ilk are based too much around 'collectathon' gameplay, but honestly?  Sunshine probably more than beats either it or Banjo Tooie in how much of the gameplay is collecting shiny trinkets.  For example, every level has at least one red coin mission, so that's already 7 red coin shines.  But wait, Bianco Hills and Noki Bay have two red coin missions.  So that's up to 7 shines.  But wait again, every 'secret' area has at least one red coin mission, so that's another 11 red coin shines.  So at the moment, 20 of 120 missions are red coin based.  But wait, let's add non course levels (another three red coin missions) and Delfino Airstrip (another one).  Let's add the 24 shine sprites gained by collecting blue coins.  And the 100 coin shines in the 7 areas and hub.  That's now a massive 52 shines of 120 that involve collecting money.  So that's one thing, the game design seems to be mostly 'explore island and collect stuff', not 'explore island and do interesting things'.

And the annoyances don't stop there.  Forcefully removing FLUDD in secret areas.  Randomly shoving 'secrets' into obtuse places (like walls you have to spray with water).  Making you ride slow boats half way across Delfino Plaza.  Yoshi disappearing in water in general.  A very, very poor final level with an uninspired boss fight. The fact the game was set on a tropical island, yet hardly any of the levels really used the theme to its full degree (how many beaches did we get?)

It's a good game, but it's not a 'underrated classic' like some people make it out to be.

I still stand by my criticisms of it here too:

For what it's worth Sunshine was my favorite of the 3D platformers, Xan.

Blue Coins are awful. There's no indication in any given episode about how many Blue Coins you've collected out of X Blue Coins so it's really hard to keep track if you've collected a particular Blue Coin or not. The motivation reasons for Blue Coins also feel filthy since you have to pay them to get Shine Sprites RIGHT IN THE PLAZA.

Minecraft.

and...um...

Minecraft.

Also, I'll throw in...Mario 64. I might get shot down really hard for this, but the game never did anything for me at all, and I hate the camera and the controls at times. Maybe this is just because I wasn't there when it was first released to soak in all of the love for a 3D game, but I never really understood why this seems to be like everyone's favorite Mario game.

Yup, now I feel like the DS version was a pretty good "remake", so to speak. Expanding on the game and making it look less, like you said, blocky.

While I really enjoy them, the N64 Mario Party trilogy also comes to mind. Classic Mario Party purists tend to act like they're perfect games and any Mario Party after 3 is nowhere near as good as the originals despite that clearly not being the case. The Gamecube era Mario parties honestly felt more fun and lively in comparison, especially considering they don't force you to rapidly rotate the control stick while simultaneously burning a hole through your palm just to win a game of tug o' war.

I completely agree!

Mario party 6 is my favorite and did everything MP2 did, but better. MP 4 and 5 tend to be overlooked and they provided some of the greatest mini-games. 

MP5 especially had great games: Dodge Bomb, Coney Island, Mario Mechs, Fish Upon a Star. All better than those control stick mini-games. 

Out teachers at school actually wondered if we were abused because we had burns on our palms and had trouble holding objects.

I liked the later variety in Mario Party games.

Mario Party 2 and 3 seem to get all the love, but 6 is at least loved.

I need to go put Mario Party Advance in the underrated category again. That game was pretty good.
