(hahyp-fuh l) The act of having hope mercilessly that a videogame, product, or movie will live up to the imaginative over-hype and very improbable ideas and wants of the fan base looking forward to its release after a vague and misleading announcement, commercial, or trailer.
When a fan hopefully wants a feature that hasn't been officially announced to be included on said product, but understands more than likely it probably won't be. A sort of sarcastic way to say hopefully, while still emphasizing that you really do hope it happens and will be pleasantly surprised if it does. Best used in gaming announcements, prior to events such as E3, in which vague trailers are released for a game, and fans storm the internet with theories of what the trailer insinuates about the game's features without any factual information from the source backing their theories, sometimes in an attempt to quantify their justification for pre-ordering. Can also be used as an insult when someone is posting wild speculation about a product without any factual backing. Also defined as hopefully, but probably not.

This game's multiplayer looks like it's gonna blow me away, but I'm hypeful it will have an awesome single player game too.
The giant mech in that trailer looks awesome, so hypefully it's in the whole movie and not just a cool 5 minute action scene at the end.
My friend told me the new iPhone will have solar recharging batteries and can sync to any electronic in my house, but that just sounds overly hypeful to me.

Someone who says they're down for something, then says they're not. Similar to a flake, but worse. Science says that 1 in every 5 persons is a "hype"
Bro 1: "Hey bro! Lets go to the casino, then hit the strip club after."
Bro 2: "Im fuckin down!"
Later that night...
Bro 2: "So you down bro?"
Bro 1: "Nah man, imma stay in with my girl"
Bro 2:"Fuckin Hype ass foo!"
"Are you down or are you gonna be a hype?"
"Of course im down, I aint a hype."
Bro 2: "Im fuckin down!"

Another word for effort. Usually in terms of how much energy would be used to do something. Whether something is worth doing or not based on how difficult it would be. Stoner Slang.

Hype is a band of four talented musicians. From Los Gatos, California the band consists of Stephen Radabaugh (vocals and lead guitar), Chris Perry (vocals and guitar), JoJo Ventura (drums) and Chloe Bennie (bass).
Hype first started as a creation of Stephens mind. Wanting to make an album he went to friend Chris to help with his ideas and make them into reality. Soon later they asked Chloe and JoJo to join and HYPE was made.
They bring a breath of fresh air to the music industry combining many genres to make their own mash of pop punk/rock, alternative, indie rock and rock. Influenced from bands such as The Clash, Blink 182, The Who, and The Replacements. They bring edginess to the stage yet make their instruments sing with beautiful melodies and riffs. From songs like In The City to Off Base to Could Be Anything the band brings a diversity of an 'all killer no filler' band.
The combination of Perry and Radabaugh writing riffs and lyrics so catchy and, Venturas dumming skills as if he was born playing drums and Bennies simplistic bass style make for a perfect combination.
