I'm a retro-gamer, there is nothing really too surprising about that. Over the last couple of weeks, I've been watching a lot of top ten and top 5 snes games and it seems like for the most part the games always remaing the same. From my personal opinion, I think its easier to pick games that are under-rated games, compared to games that are over-rated because over-rated games are definitely fun to play but there are always a variety of factors that can make people like them for the wrong reasons. I have always considered the SNES one of the best systems, just because of the extensive line-up of great games. Despite all the great games that the SNES has, do you feel there are great games that you feel may not deserve as much credit as what other people make them out to be. I think it would make an interesting topic because I think some of us will probably list games that other members think they are great in every possible way. Here is a game that I feel is a little over-rated: 1.) Super Mario RPG: Legend of the 7 Stars I am bringing a whole bunch of hatred on myself. It is a fun game, don't get me wrong, but I know a lot of people that will list this game as the best rpg on the snes, and that is just a statement I can't accept when you have games such as Final Fantasy III (VI) and Chrono Trigger. This game isn't even in my top 5 rpg's for the SNES. Maybe one of the reasons why a lot of people like this game, is that it is the first rpg game for Mario (as far as I know), by all means it has excellent gameplay, a good soundtrack, and a nice amount of fun factor to it that added to people's enjoyment of it. I guess I couldn't enjoy it as much as other people. I'll be honest I enjoyed the game, even though I found it a little too easy, but its just a game that I think is completely over-rated, compared to all the other great rpg's for the SNES. I would put this game as an above average rpg. To the gaming community, what do you feel are snes games that are over-rated and by all means explain why? |

I generally don't like rpg's, but when I played SMRPG I loved that game, I don't see it being overrated in my opionon. As for overrated I can't think of one off the top of my head. |

I think the Donkey Kong Country series is overrated. We were all so blinded by how beautiful the games looked back in the day and didn't really see behind that. They are okay games, but they don't really hold up as well as you would have thought they would. Pretty standard games if nothing else. Those are the first ones that come to me. Super Mario RPG doesn't feel overrated to me either. I think it still lives up very well and many people do like the direction that Mario has taken with his current RPGs, yet a lot of people would love to see Square and Nintendo put together a true sequel to the original. Just take out Geno...he sucked (sorry I really think so). |

I didn't think super maro rpg was over rated. The first 2 donkey kong country games was dmn good in my opiniong... it's the 3rd one that was over rated. Star Fox was waaaaaay over rated. And Stunt Race FX was over rated as well |

Umm...Hmmm. No Star Fox is not overrated and Stunt Race FX was never popular enough to be overrated in the first place. Star Fox has one of the best soundtracks on the SNES for sure. |

I personally think that Overrated games don't exist. As i always say, someone might love it, someone else might hate it. It's a matter of opinion. |

That's the problem with the internet, everyone has an opinion on everything... Seriously though, I think that if you can back up your reasons as to why you suggest something at least then you have some credibility for your point of view. I really appreciate someone who can dislike something but give reasons as to why they do. |
