Resident Evil 5. I can't even be bothered to go back and get achievements I'm missing. Don't get me wrong, it's a fun game... but I wish I hadn't bought it.

Mercenaries 2...

The AI was so bad and there were so many bugs that it made me trade the game in before I even finished it...
Agreed, that and Heavenly sword way too short, but i do recomend renting it, very nice GoW rip off.

Fable 2: Beat it in a few days, little replay value. I even had the limited collector's edition that came with the Spartan armor and sword, but for some reason it didn't have anything extra other than a stupid behind the scneces DVD. Not to mention my friend told me about every part of the game.

Fallout 3: Could only play a couple days before it bored me out of my mind. My friend praised it like it was his friggin God, so I paid the full 60 bucks for a crappy ass game. Man, I hate that guy.

Armored Core 4: Bought it along with AC: for answers. My friend told me I could transfer date from 4 to for answers, but I couldn't. Nowhere near as good as ACFA.

MKvsDC: I knew it would be bad going in, but I'm an MK junkie, so I had to get it. This game sucked so much that other than Tekken, I am completely done with all Arcade Style Fighter Games.

Halo Wars: Got it on sale for $45. My friend promised me he would help me get all the achievements if I helped him get them all on RE5. I help him, then get the game. He says "Halo Wars snapped if half. I'm not going to rent it. I'm done with that game." I swear, this guy can't stick with anything for longer than a month! He gets a game around release day, overplays it, acts like it's the best game ever, then when I get it on sale, he's done. The same happened with Fallout 3, and I even paid full price for that! After buying Halo Wars, I waited 2 days before opening it in case I wanted to take it back. I played for about 15 minutes, then got bored.

I should go kick my friend in the balls.

Lord of the Rings: Conquest
Fun until you beat it. Then when you go to play online, either no games are found, or they are all obsessives and kick your ass.
I found LOTR Conquest easy and fun online. You just went mage and threw those fire things on the floor or went ent and stamped on everyone.

However I do beleive I should have rented the New Prince of Persia. I finished it so fast. and the fact I bought it made me buy Epilogue which was a bigger waste of Money than Setting a five pound note on fire and pinning it to a dog

BioShock. I'm discovering that the first-person perspective is just not working for me. It may be a great game, but I'm spending all my time getting clobbered from behind while I walk into black walls, so it's frustrating and no fun. Third-person games for me.

Oh, and it's also the Japanese PS3 version playing on a Japanese PS3 set for English, so it is confused. It's playing in English, but all of the in-game text that pops up during gameplay (as in, to pick up item and commands for the controller, but the mission and hint text is in English) is in Japanese, and the random language-switching is driving me batty and horribly mutilating all chances for immersion. I'll game in English or I'll game in Japanese, by trying to do both in the same game is going to make me fling my controller or something.

Assassin's Creed, more like Assassin's SHIT. The monotonous missions which makes up 90% of the game simply ruined all the fun for me.

Biosh&*k. The Orange Box.
Im still playing the Orange Box and I preordered it.
IT HAS TF2!

Agreed on alot of people saying Bioshock, I was thinking that but it was a really good game and renting it wouldn't have felt like I gave it enough credit.
