HBG: The definition of overhype is, "to promote or publicize to excess." Hype is something that can either help a video game sell or help to destroy it. Many games last decade were hyped up in some fashion, whether from controversy it received or the game's overall fanfare. When it comes down to it though, there is one game that fits the exact definition of "overhype."

this might just be one of your best posts kreyg. i couldnt agree with you more. halo 3 was so overhyped. and it turned out to be a crap game. i could only stand to play it for 5 minutes
Even in France (the no video game ad land), we had a taste of Master Chief, so it's pretty much legitimate (and not really new) that Halo 3 belongs to the most hyped games of the decade.
I felt like there was just enough hype sauce. With it still being either #1 or #2 every month, it's no wonder so many people wanted to cover it. I can't think of another console game that is 5 years old that is still being played as much as Halo 2. It is just so good...

I can only say the last decade was great and in no way it was overhyped.
