Breaking Down The 12 Most Overrated Athletes in Videogame History

T.J. Houshmandzadeh is not going to move to the back of the Madden cruiser. Not for you. Not for anyone. And he's prepared to suffer in the name of justice. Last month, the Seattle Seahawks wide receiver announced that he would boycott "Madden 10" because he isn't satisfied with his in-game rating.

Can Houshmandzadeh cobble together a lousy enough season to join this distinguished fraternity? Perhaps. In the meantime, Page 2 presents the crème de la crème, the 12 most overrated athletes in sports video game history:

The hits just keep on coming. Will not be surprised if this gets canned. It already got rebooted and they had to bring on an outside studio to try and help developement. Some of the original creatives have left the project.

But I will say, just wait until the MS showcase. If you don't see it there, then alarm bells should start ringing.

God, please don't screw this one up Microsoft! I am keeping my expectations super low, but Perfect Dark (the original) holds such a special place in my childhood. I want this to turn out well SO bad.

Just cancel it because we know you won’t be happy with its sales performance while giving it away on GP day one. GP is the biggest issue for developers and that affects the sales. No one can deny that now. GP equals to good deal for gamers and bad deals for AAA development. Take two CEO said it and he was 100% right. There are certain games that make sense on GP but not every game. 20 million gamers playing a game on GP doesn’t mean much to MS it seems because they still want sales. Just please start releasing all games on other platforms otherwise Phil is next now. You can’t spend 80 billion and be this bad

I would do the same, because MS will most likely pull-off more stunts like this in the near future...
