And to completely contradict what I just said, I feel like I also need to give some props to FFIX's plot for being over-rated. It's great at the beginning and utter trash by the end. Fans like it because the final twists are pure fan-service and shout outs to the 2D games. That's cute and all, but I find it's still pretty dumb. And dumb is just dumb no matter how you slice it.
I feel that fanboys are the main problem that make a game feel overrated often times. I feel sharkythesharkdogg placed my sentiments best. Its not that any of these games are bad (Except for FFX, that game just sucks) but fans and news media have over-hyped everything to the point where we lose sight of the fact they are just great games and instead we feel the need to justify them as ancient relics of greatness.
