Underhyped and overhyped games of 2008.

What are some examples of underhyped and overhyped games of 2008. My underhyped game would definitely be Fallout 3, it reminds me of Oblivion and looks like a great game. As far as the overhyped games go, I would have to say Spore, Spore is way too ambitious and I think it's going to disappoint people when It comes out. What are some of yours?

I don't think they've really begun the marketing push for Fallout 3. It's still over 6 months out. I'm sure you'll see more when we get closer to it being released.

I have another underhyped game, Tom Clancy's Endwar, I read the EGM cover story and I was simply blown away. Ever since then the game has not gotten much press at all.

Underhyped has to be Killzone 2.

Underhyped game - Alan Wake.

I wanted this game since they showed it at E3 back when they unveiled the Xbox 360. I love survival horror games and this game looks fantastic to me. Microsoft threw money around and got this game exclusive to Windows/Xbox,so it must be worth something.

Overhyped Game - Spore

This game will not live up to the talk. For what was promised I honestly do not think Spore is going to fill what people have hyped. It seems like one of those games that will be great,but still be labeled a disappointment or over hyped because it didn't deliver on the insane level people have built up for the game.
