	2 RepliesNo game has. Because when you over-hype the shit out of a game you'll always be disappointed. We need the stop this "hype-culture" bullshit, and stop pre-ordering games.

	The literal LAST game I played that I thought "my goodness old sport the hype for this game was so worth this game is a mastapiece" was probably borderlands 1. Good RNG, good gameplay, story was pretty good too, ending kinda stank though with the cliff hanger, but it was still a great game, and all the DLC for it was well worth the money with all the content.

	Edited by Lolipops: 1/28/2015 9:39:25 PMI don't think I've ever came across a game that lives up to the hype surrounding it. From my own personal experience, the best games are the ones that aren't hyped to death.

	For me. Mass effect and gears of war. Seems like the new thing nowadays is overhyping a game and not even trying to deliver.
