All pinball machines are underrated, while also being overrated.

These threads prove this to be fact!

To be honest, in a world where Street FIghter IIs seem to be selling for $2k, how is it possible to say ANY game is underrated?

It's just moot now. There are no more "hidden gems," and really, there is nothing that's "overpriced" anymore. Nobody dumb enough to spend $20K on a POTC or $13000 on a Stern LE really cares if the game is "overrated" or overpriced, that's kind of the whole point of swinging your dick around.

The whole point of finding "underrated" games in the past was to find a bargain. When stuff like Doctor Who, T2, NBA Fastbreak, No Fear, etc. were going for $1100, there was some value in noobs trying to figure out where the deals were.

Well, in 2021, you can insist a shitty game like Waterworld is underrated, but at $2k who gives a shit? You may be the one person on Earth who still thinks nobody else thinks The Shadow or Congo or Indy 500 is a good game, but at $4-5k, again, who cares? What's the value in knowing a game is "underrated" when it still costs as much as a used Subaru?

Underrated/overrated threads are neither underrated nor overrated any more. They are simply useless and irrelevant.

Quoted from TheLaw:

Sure, but what if I go out of my way to explain how the very expensive and popular game I own is actually, hold on to your seats, UNDERRATED!!
Gamechanger!

Hahah yeah that's another part of it.

"You know what's underrated? This Ghostbusters LE I paid $10k for! It should be more appreciated!"

Get a Schnauzer if you want unconditional love people!!!
