God I'm gonna sound so terribly unoriginal but whatever:
Valve's games, they're all either average or extremely underwhelming. The praise they garner I feel is very undeserved, some commendation is fine but it drives my head in when people praise valve as gaming paragons.
Modern Warfare...oh Modern Warfare, how NOT so amazing you are. Aside from being a competent shooter, it's this gens definition of overhyped. I played it all the way through, TWICE just to see what was so damn good about this game. What i got was tiresomely annoying scripting, forgettable single player experience, unbalanced and uninteresting multiplayer, and competent gameplay. When a games only real good aspect is that it has competent gameplay then there is something wrong.
ODST, 60 dollar expansion pack nuff said.
Final Fantasy series, yes I adore the games but even I as a fan must quell the inner fanboy and acknowledge the truth. This is blamed squarely on the god damn fans that won't STFU and paint a bad image for the series than the more modest fans who know when to keep our traps fucking shut. It's these fantards that give newcomers a bad interpretation and therefore help fuel the hate even more.
Mass Effect, I like you ME2...but your predecessor was a massive pile of underwhelming average through and through. I'm a sci fi geek and I can appreciate Mass Effect, but fuck was the first one ever an undeserving praised game. I have this odd love hate relationship with it, but I still lean more towards pure HATE for it's not so impressive gameplay and poorly paced story with only 1 or 2 decent characters and a shit ton of wasted opportunity and potential.
Look at me!! I'm original!! That's just to name a few games.
