One that springs straight to mind, The Orange Box on both 360 and PC(own both).

Say your own, and remember the golden rule of this forum, DON'T MOAN IF THIS HAS BEEN DONE BEFORE, I did a search.

Halo: CE (if I understand the premise here). Might as well get it over with.

The Ocarina of Time deserves the hype it gets.

So does it's sequel.

Call of Duty 4 was amazing, suprisingly.

Halo:CE and Halo 3.
Gears of War.
Resistance.
God of War Chains of Olympus.
Final Fantasy 7 Crisis Core.

Fallout 3

Okay, its not out yet, but come on, that shits gonna be Game of the Year and you know it

zhoomout:
Sorry for my ignorance but whats fallout?

zhoomout:
Zelda: Majora's Mask (Actually my personal favourite of the non-handheld Zelda games)

Which handheld beats it?

I personally thought MGS IV really did live up to its name. Some of you will disagree.

Going back a few years, I thought San Andreas really did work well as a sequel to Vice City. It managed to surpass it in every area except soundtrack.

True very true but I still love "Welcome to the Jungle".

What was weird was that song was not on Axl Roses radio station.

It was on Radio X isn't that the rock one?

And Conkers Bad Fur Day. The Hype surrounding it made it sound like a cheap thrill, but the underlying game was really great.

No, that was the Alternative one (that for some reason had Ozzy Osbournes only good song, Welcome to the Jungle and Cult of Personality), with Sage. Axl hosted K-DST, the classic rock station. Why he is associated with Classic Rock I have no idea, but he was still really funny. I rank his appearance on this as better than Slashes on Guitar Hero III, partly cause I love San Andreas and hate Guitar Hero III, and partly cause I love Axl and hate Slash.

Indigo_Dingo:

Maybe They thought Guns and Roses was alternative? Or it was an attack on you to mess you up.

EDIT:GTA 4 has the best soundtrack of them all: Your own soundtrack.

As I recall, you did that back in III if you had the PC version. I still didn't like that, cause I wanted that hysterical banter, and the news and talk stations (both of which seemed lacking somewhat in IV)

Well considering you can download the radio stations and put them on the 360. Problem solved. So all of the GTAs in one and your own music that is actually good (I don't like many of the actual songs they have just the hosts)

...what the hell are you talking about?

Bioshock and COD4

Indigo_Dingo:
...what the hell are you talking about?

The stations have been put on youtube. You can download,convert to MP3,Burn to CD,Rip the Xbox 360,and then play them while playing GTA 4.

You can also download said stations directly from the net, off the PC versions, or the Ps2 versions if you download the right program. How is that relevant?

And how do you download Youtube videos? Cause theres this one video of a guy playing the Gerudo valley theme song on an electric Guitar that I've been trying to put on my Ipod for a while.

Its relevant because it incorporates your own music and the all the GTA radios into one game.

Google "Youtube downloader" then convert it (I don't know how I don't use a iPOD)

No, you use a Psp, which means you might want to get your friend PlayTV.

bioshock... orange box... etc

Indigo_Dingo:

Yes since I not only have a PS3,Wi-Fi,and the Play TV accessory but I don't already have a PVR and a PC that will also do that stuff but also for things not on TV like Red vs. Blue which I hate/sarcasm

Fable.

It delivered. (See, I never heard Molyneux's hyping beforehand)

I'd say God of War 2 delivered.

Ninja Gaiden. Not only lived up to the hype, it became one of my all time faves.

Halo: Combat Evolved delivered, though it was tedious in some parts.

As I have often said, Metroid Prime 3: Corruption is the most fun you will have with a game untill they invent a game that is just a needle full of endorphins.
Or untill retro makes another one.

hyped games by definition are less than what their made out to be.

Surreysmith:
hyped games by definition are less than what their made out to be.

they're*

nu-uh, the definition of a 'hyped game' is a game that has been advertised in a particular way with an aim to provoking a sense of excitement about a game, ensuring sales. I reckon.

WoW delivered.
Rome: total war did, too

zhoomout:
Thanks, I'm no longer in the dark lol!

Just as I read that, Josh Ritter sang 'in the dark I thought I heard somebody call'. Freaked me out. Like the other day I was watching the Simpsons and Homer got struck by lightning, just as I got a text. And my phone was in my top pocket. Spooky.

I guess GTA IV delivered for me. Maybe not as much as San Andreas did. Just trying to think what hyped games there have been lately. CoD4, but I don't like just saying sequels. Haven't got Spore yet, but we'll see.
