@Ghetsis-Dennis;

...really? *Lowers weapons*

I expected Pokemon or something to be on there, but I actually agree or am neutral with their opinions. Though I do kinda like Lego games and Halo...eh, no big deal.

As much as I enjoy Dynasty Warriors as a sort of guilty pleasure, it really does need to die. Every game is literally the same as the others, except with different uniforms and graphics.

I never understand why they want Angry Birds to die. The game is still fresh, and it has become one of the more successful games that's not a dark/gritty game. Plus this was how their childhood games started out as.

I don't like Angry Birds a bit, I think it's overrated. Then again, unlike CoD, I've never actually played it...

It is, people tend to use "overrated" on the things they hate, which is not how it's meant to be used. A former youtube user named yakoma44 made a rant about it a long time ago.

But in Neosquid's opinion, Angry Birds is overrated. I think that's fair use, although it's true that people use it to describe things they hate

But that would make Angry Birds "underrated" because of the hate it's getting from veteran gamers and the abuse of the word "overrated," giving them an expression that the stuff they like is superior.

I legit think that Angry Birds is overrated. I don't use it in place of the word "hate". For example, I think Mountain Dew and Pokemon 1st Gen are overrated a lot, but I don't hate them.

Yeah, that's very true. I think COD is overrated but I don't hate it (I enjoy playing it from time to time). I think there's a middle ground between under and overrated though. Angry Birds is incredibly popular, so it can't be underrated, but in the opinion of some people, it is overrated.

...I actually do dislike Mountain Dew a bit, but that's besides the point. ^^;

Yes, there is middle ground. Pokemon is kinda middle ground (especially new Pokemon)....underrated by some audiences, overrated by others.

Lol :p Mountain Dew is blech... I actually really like Voltage, but the other flavors are too strong/too syrupy for me. Mello Yello is better :p

Oh definitely, the debate will probably never end :/ everyone has their own over/under opinion on every single Pokemon it seems, haha.
