Games you regret buying

[Madara XIII]

BURNOUT REVENGE!

Call me an evil pretentious prick, but I was turned off from the game the moment I found out there were no drivers for the cars....Cars that crash into humongous pile ups and explode.

You're telling me there are no people whatsoever in this game driving or innocent bystandards that get caught in my horrible wreck/race?!?

FCK THIS GAME!!!!

Sold it the next day.

So the reason you sold the game is that people don't get graphically maimed and dismembered every time you crash?

Why not just go back and play Carmageddon, or even GTA then?

LOL Idk I just loved how the racing was in Burnout and gave me a bit of an adrenaline rush, and hmmm I never heard of Carmegeddon. Might check tht out

 

[Pikey Mikey]

Sniper: Ghost Warrior and one other that I can't remember

 

[Dr. Paine]

Final Fantasy X.

Somehow, I doubt the fact that I got it on 06/06/06 was coincidence. For god's sake, the sequel was actually BETTER. At least it was fun and had more than one half-interesting character.

Took me lots of digging through the archives, but i think Mafia also makes the cut. Sorry if you guys like it but the one i bought(PC) was so riddled in glitches that i couldn't bear playing it.

 

[Kit Fox]

Easily Section 8, a game with very good concepts and some pretty shitty execution and more recently COD MW 2 thanks to those assholes on the consoles who completely break any balance in multiplayer.

 

[Nosense]

Halo 3 and Modern Warfare 2 (well actually my brother bought MW2 but its still god awful to have one in the house). That's it really, after being disappointed in Halo 3 I started the practice of renting games I am interested in before buying them.

Modern Borefare 2. Yeah, I had fun with it for about 5 hours and then after playing the stupid campaign, and getting to multiplayer I discovered that everyone just does the same stupid shit. Fun, but not worth the money I spent on it. I'd have spent maybe 30$ on it tops.

Ferk you FFXIII, I could have had Chicken tacos for a month instead!

 

[mParadox]

Ferk you FFXIII, I could have had Chicken tacos for a month instead!

Huh. You should play FFXIV. It's worse and probably could make you a tacos king.

 

[fjelding]

Medal of Honor 2010

It just feels like a Demo i paied full price for. The campaign, was nothing special, and the multi player... Oh God the multiplayer.

Damn you Dice I KNOW you can do waaaaaay better that this!

 

[PhunkyPhazon]

Star Wars Episode 2 on the GBA. It's bad enough that it's one of the worst games I have ever played, the trouble I went through to get that..."game" was insane. Like, I sold a whole bunch of old games, including classics like Goldeneye 64 and Metal Gear Solid, for $60 at EB Games. Half of it went to Attack of the Shit. I don't really remember where the other half went...it was either Zelda Oracle of Seasons or Super Mario Advance 2, so either way at least that half wasn't a waste.

 

[Ramin 123]

Anything of the Halo series, Silent Hill Homecoming, Resident Evil 5, Professor Layton and the Nintendo DS.

 

[atol]

The new Alien vs Predator. How could they screw that up? They found a way.

 

[EmzOLV]

I was an extreme sucker for ever purchasing Fairytale Fights. I hang my head in utter shame. I returned it and got my money back - luckily!

 

[Folio]

I hardly regret buying games because every good game is a good experience and every bad game is a heads-up on how NOT to do it. (if you want to be a designer, playing bad games might be more usefull than the good ones. Just saying.)

So I don't have regret for my most hated game: 40K Command Squad for the DS. But I might have regret for Demigod. I looked long and hard for that game just to find out that it's a DotA clone with Unreal Tournament stuff thrown into it.

No, really... The characters are just diffrent graphics from the WC3 sprites. But the story is the same. You can almost see what sprites they used in the WC3 mod.

Every time you kill your second Demigod, you hear SMITER! And if you do that twice in a row without dying: DOUBLE SMITE! Sounds familiar? No? What about this: DOUBLE KILL! MULTI KILL! LUDACROUS KILL! M-M-M-M-MONSTER KILL!

The maps get samey, too. The 'Tournament' is just the same game modes over and over again. They want you to grind for each character in the same way to earn Achievements. It's meant to be Multiplayer, nothing else. It doesn't have a Steam or Windows Live connection... it's a bit fun... but quickly repetitive.
