Doom3 and HL2 will be stunning to say the least, if you have seen the demos and screens. Doom 3 will use new technologies in both the graphical and sound departement
But all this graphical beauty comes at a really high price i think... you will need a killer system to enjoy all the new stuff, not to mention a graphics card that supports all that.
As far as overhyped ... I think the anticipation of seeing it in action is the cause of that ... so many people want to see if the developers can deliver. I'm sure they can, but the real question should be ... is it going to be playable and replayable ?
Multiplayer is what keeps a game alive longer than the single player campaigns and whats the first thing a real fps player does ? right, turning down the settings and tweaking the gui to improve frames per second so he can kill more enemies easier...
so yes, D3 and HL are overhyped, but not too much I think... they will be cool and fun ... but for how long ?
