10 Most Overrated Video Games Of 2016

1. Uncharted 4: A Thief's End

Uncharted 4 was a tremendous technical achievement from Naughty Dog and a fitting end to Nathan Drake's story, but for the most part it's also a game that people played through once in a few days and then never really talked about again.

It's rare for games that score 93 on Metacritic to make such little impact in the months following their release, and this is perhaps because while mechanically the game is near-faultless, the core gameplay was a rather samey reprise of previous games, just polished to a higher level.

The game is obviously good, even great, but it doesn't seem to have the staying power with most players that would allow it to be regarded as a bonafide classic in the years to come.
