Overrated/Underrated GTA'S


Recommended Posts

Not actually the game but the voice actor, Danny Mastrogiorgio. I think it would be awesome if he voiced another GTA protagonist on a much important GTA title as IV or V

I think you're in the wrong thread. This tread is about Overrated/Underrated GTA games opinion.

GTA 5 is not overrated, nobody cares about it, it's all GTA Online. I'd bet about half of its current player base haven't even bothered with SP past the first few missions.

Sorry but no. Both are overrated.

I thought characters would be included in the discuss because Uhmmm... they are a main part of the game? :catspider:

 

Maybe it's because I am so sticked into the storyline

Overrated: GTA V-Online. TOO many reasons, it is a hell of a success, yet too many complaints, lunatic players which think this game is the MASTERPIECE of this century, (from simple to complex) problems than the majority of players dosen't care, either by being ignorants, or by being the random kids which we know are the main reason to these problems continues...

 

Dosen't matter if is a record or a problem which appears, people treat GTA V-Online diferent than the others GTA's, i would say about SA, VC or even III but .... congrats people .... you made the V-Online looks worst and more annoying (in some aspects) than the all former overrated GTA's together.

 

Underrrated: GTA Chinatown Wars. Man this is a simple game made for simple consoles, yet they are fun and a bit interesting, those diferent minigames ranging from car stealing, opening a truck with guns, opening a car with a hidden stash of drugs etc... they were nice and looked unique for the standard GTA (they looked more amazing and insane if we consider how they worked with the touch screen system of the DS).

The other thing that caught my attention is the controversial drug dealing based on supply-demand, people can whine about the hey look, GTA shouldn't be here, this console is for kids and etc ... but for a GTA that was insane and a great way to make money. people complained about the over the top gameplay, but this made the game unique, a bit annoying sometimes but nothing to compromise and affect the gameplay.

 

To a less extent, one of the former DLC's from GTA IV: The Lost And Dammed. This game-DLC never got that attention like IV and TBOGT, only the specified groups that like the style of game, story etc... liked TLAD, for a GTA game, this game got a non-sense hate (probally because the TBOGT had more interesting vehicles, dancing minigame, etc...), yet the focus and how the Biker theme worked better than whole TBOGT, it was pretty much which made one of the most interestings GTA's for me, the plot, the protag aka Jonhny Klebitz, the range of avaliable bikes from sports to dam choppers, the air hockey and arm wrestilng minigames and even the biker gang war, it was a nice and interesting game.

Am I allowed to have an opinion in this forum?

No. That's plain ignorance

 

Anyway,

 

Overrated: GTA IV (Snore), EFLC, and Online

Underrated: LCS, VCS, CTW (I think SA and V are underrated in this forum)

GTA 5 is not overrated, nobody cares about it, it's all GTA Online. I'd bet about half of its current player base haven't even bothered with SP past the first few missions.

I think, it is not related with multiplayer.

 

Most of the people who buy a GTA game actually do not bother more than 10-15 mission. They follow this route: Use cheats to get all good stuff, shoot people, chase with cops; try gimmicks of the game until get bored; then never touch the game again.

I dont know how anyone can say ViceCity is overrated but its all personal opinion, i have just started a new play through on XBOX and i felt like i did all those years ago on release day, its a great game. All i can think when someone says its overrated is they have come to the game after playing later games first, i guess you would wonder what all the fuss is about but if you played it back in the day along with GTA3 you would understand what a milestone in gaming these 2 games where

The only thing going against Vice City like GTA III is its age. Vice City's 16 years old this year and some of its mechanics really show. Other than that I played the game in 2002 and still play on my PS4 from time to time and it's still the peak of the 3D era as far as I'm concerned. It was the last GTA that really hooked me until GTA IV.

 

If Vice City had a longer development cycle it'd be an even better game, but what it achieved in just 1 year after GTA III was nothing short of amazing that I'm sure most AAA developers who pump out sequels annually nowadays would be gleaming with envy.

Overrated: SA. People can't stop circlejerking over it and while its a solid game its really not that special. Its way too bloated for its own good, CJ is a lackluster protagonist, the story is a trainwreck and even back when it came out it felt like a step back compared to VC to me. It changed the series for the worse because people can't move on from it.

 

GTA:O- How is this piece of garbage so popular? Its not fun at all. And why the f*ck do people buy shark cards? All a mystery to me. It also lead to the cancellation of GTA V's SP DLC..

 

Underrated on this forum: GTA V, outside this forum GTA IV.

GTA V was no doubt flawed as f*ck but people here seem to hate it too much and call everything about it garbage. It has some strong points for me and is at least as good as SA at least.

 

Outside this forum GTA IV is still underrated, the casual fans just prefer the more "fun" titles I guess. It deserves more appreciation.

 

TLAD was also much better than TBOGT yet people didn't care about it much. Probably the reason why Rockstar sh*tted all over Johnny in GTA V, they knew that (sadly) not many would care. I'm glad some did at least.

 


2018 and people still saying that IV is underrated...

Because it is, outside this forum at least. Don't think people here represent the majority.

Overrated: GTA 5, Online, and to a lesser extent, San Andreas

Underrated: TLAD and TBOGT

 

I like San Andreas better than 5, and think it’s still pretty good, but not particularly as good as a lot of people claim it is. I’d rate it a 10/16. I’ve already explained as much as I could about how I think 5 is overrated. I still like it though and rate it a 9/16. As for GTA Online, it might as well be the only GTA game I dislike more than 1, 2, and Advance. It has far too many whiny and bratty 9-year-olds playing it that shouldn’t even be playing GTA in the first place!

Underrated:VCS, TBOGT

How is TLAD overrated?I'd even say it's underrated because despite being a pretty good game,it has very few fans and doesn't really get the praise it deserves.

Overrated: GTA Online

Underrated: GTA IV, at least outside this forum, that is. The general fans mostly sh*t on the game. GTA III, doesn't get the love that Vice or SA does, but it's still a great game that set the standard back then.
