Viking battle for asgard. Why would you create a game of epic battles and forget to create most of the sound effects and music?
I can't think of anything, wait, there was some crappy robot game I got for the GC
But nowadays I work at Blockbuster, so I get stuff for free working there and have played a lot of games
I'm glad I didn't buy Bioshock, didn't it like it (I tried, honest)
But I rent so many games that I laugh at buying games w/o knowing their good value before hand

ADAMANTIUM RAGE! *Punches*Cekil1 said:
For me, World of Warcraft for the PC, spent more time and money on that that probably all the games I owned together. Thoughslowly detoxing from it.
Beowulf: The Movie: The Game for the PC, as bad as it is for the 360 ( £3 second hand FTW! ) for the PC it just did not work, it lagged the moment you touched water to the point where the game froze for a whole 20 second before going slide show till you exited water.
Spore and Spore: Galatic Adventures for the PC, buy one get one free for both butI feel I should have been paid to take them off GAMEs hands.
Harvest Moon: A Wonderful Life for the Gamecube, I loved Harvest Mon 1&2 for the Game Boy, I loved Harvest Moon: Back to Nature for the PS1 but this things was'nt a Harvest Moon game, I could'nt even plant crops properly!
Call of Cthulhu: Dark Corners for the Earth for the X-Box, while I really enjoyed the game, the game breaking bug near the end that made it utterly impossable to finish the game made me almost hurl my X-Box out the window.
Pirates of the Carribean ( A.K.A. Sea Dogs 2 ) for the X-Box, see above.
Monster Hunter for the PS2, I love the game, it's fun, but I bought it 2 days after the games online service was discontinued. Joy.
Conan: The Dark Axe for the Gamecube, the game was so slow when you attacked, enemies could and did block everything including block breakers and you could'nt block or dodge anything. In short a game that made me think Conan has a zimmer frame.
Gunegrave for the PS2, not knowing it was a based of an anime you really had to have seen to understandthe game made me go through it and at the end think, 'Ok.. So what did I just do?'
Lord of he Rings: The Third Age for the X-Box, a Lord of Rings games like the Final Fantasy that takes place during the movies? Whats not like? The fact that it's just so badly made to fit in, plus the Eye of Sauron can and will one shot you instantly when you fight him at the end.
Dead Space for the 360, I like it even though I just can't find the will to complete it.
Fable 2 for the 360, only reason I bought it was I enjoyed Fable.
Shadow Warrior ( Ninja Gaiden ) for the NES, good lord that game sent me into flying rages as a child.
Xenosaga 2. Absolutely dreadful.
And I still don't know what got over me at the moment to make me think buying a story-driven game whose prequel I had no way of playing was a good idea. Still, it was 10? in mint condition, which softened the blow somewhat.
Otherwise I plan my purchases carefully so I'm rarely disappointed.

Tekken 6 - the graphics were better in Tekken 5 and they screwed up the story mode
Fire Emblem on the DS - NO SUPPORT CONVERSATIONS!!!
Soul Calibur Broken Destiny - No survival mode, time attack mode or anything worthwhile
luckily I traded it in for Kingdom Hearts 358/2 days

Bad buys:
Mass effect 1.. had to beat it to see how boring it all was.
STALKER - Clear Sky : The sequel is boring, SOC is much, MUCH better, even if it doesnt have the little perks that improves the gameplay in CS.
Good buys at the time:
Starscape; Could not make myself lke it enough to replay it more than once. My main problem with it is the extremely clumsy controls and UI.
Mr Robot: Kind of fun, but i got lost in a hallway with a friggin jumping puzzle that takes ages to do, got bored there, never touched it again since then.
Good buys but lack of time to play:
AI WAR, SWORD OF THE STARS, Galactic Civ 2 : all great games.. but my general lack of free time prevents me from starting any serious games (since it takes a while to beat one) so they are fun, but cant really play them either.
