Default Underrated & Overrated Games of '07

I'm sticking to just games available on the PS3 so this doesn't become a flame war of PS3 vs 360.

Most Overrated: COD4 - It's good, much better than COD3, which I honestly thought was clunky and awful. However it's not revolutionary in any sense. It really feels like just another FPS and I really am not in love with the controls. I mean, check my sig... I do like it a lot... but 10/10 game of the year? Not quite. I actually enjoy the shooting in Uncharted better; COD4 feels chaotic and disjointed a lot of the time.

Most Underrated: Uncharted - Nothing wrong w/ 8/10 average rating, but if these FPS retreads are 10/10 then come on. The game looks great and has variety of play. Oh, and the characters actually are interesting and you somewhat care about them in the story... COD4, not so much.

Way Better Than Everyone Said: Lair - Maybe not the most underrated, but what were people smoking? Are the controls really that tough for you, because my 9-year-old son coasts through Lair w/o issue. It looks great and the idea is totally novel. Admit it, these fans and critics always SAY they want tougher & more unique games, but they actually just want more of the same so they can feel like great, hardcore gamers. Looks great and the controls DO work.
