The term overrated is, to put it best, overrated. Especially in the world of coasters. In order for something to be overrated, an illusion of quality is created by factors other then itself - such as in sports, where a team is having a really great season, not because they are a good team but maybe because they have a really easy schedule or everytime they play, the other team has a bad day. eventually the true colors will show through. In the case of a rollercoaster though, the quality is entirely dependent on the opinions of the riders. A great ride is one where most people think it is a great ride. their will always be somebody that doesn't like a coaster as we have seen time and time again on this board. So there really is no way for a coaster to be overrated, if a lot of people say they like it then a lot of people like it - very simple. If you are one of the people that don't like a ride that most other people do (such as PR) then the coaster can be overrated to you and to others that feel the same way as you. Phantom's Revenge has received mostly good and great reviews and only a few average or bad reviews - therefore this coaster would be considered a good coaster. I am sorry you were dissappointed by this ride but you have to admit that most people here have really enjoyed it.
