The most overrated games of 2008

We name and shame last year's most overrated games.

Last month, we cast our critical eye on the most underrated games of 2008 (i.e. the stuff you should have bought last year, but didn’t). Now, in accordance to classic (read: hackneyed) tradition we present the most overrated games of 2008. It’s the obligatory bookend that nobody demanded!

If you missed out on some of the overlooked gems from our previous article, these games were the likely culprits. Some are bad, some are good and some are merely mediocre, but they all share one thing in common — relentless over-hyping from the gaming press. (So no change there then.)
