Underrated & Overrated Games of '07

[heathward]

it depends on what angle you are taking. Uncharted was quite underrated in the general gaming community, but highly acclaimed within the circle of PS3 gamers. we all know how awesome it is, but it doesn't get the props it deserves because it is a PS3 exclusive. so with that being said, i am going to approach this topic from the outside as a general gamer.

most overrated: COD4...great game but not groundbreaking or knocking my socks off like most claim.

most underrated: Warhawk...now this is groundbreaking. was given mediocre reviews, and some just plain bad. we all know it is fantastic, but most gamers have never played it and are missing out. imagine if this was an XBox 360 exclusive? it would have scored A+ and 100's across the board.

overlooked gem: DiRT...beautiful visuals and intense racing, but nobody ever talks about it. it was left out in the cold.
