No weight, no value, no purpose... makes me think it must have been something that was scrapped that they then forgot to take out.

Meh, Earthworm Jim 2 had a bubble gun way before Just Cause 2 was even conceived. It was equally useless.Paulie92 said:
In Football Manager 2008 there is this statistic on how much you've earned during your managerial career. Of course, it makes sense in a wider context, seeing as how you have to discuss your payment during contract negotiations with the board, however... There's nothing to do with the money.
But, on the other end of the spectrum:
The family/wife you can "get" in FIFA Manager 10 (and perhaps in 9, or 11, I don't know. Never played those). You can buy her gifts. You can even get kids. Perhaps even a house, I don't remember clearly. In any case, you can do all kinds of shit with the money you earn as a manager, that are absolutely pointless and unrelated to the general context of the game itself.

I sat through most of that.
Sherman Crocodile in Company of Heroes.
The Germans get an Ostwind Flakpanzer that more or less does the same general job (clearing out infantry) while also being able to fight vehicles (Croc cant do that) and being great at knocking though fortified positions and such.
The Sherman Crocodile costs almost 3 times as much fuel, often dies to the infantry it tries to kill, can't touch vehicles and is only mildly good for clearing through fortified positions.
I'm still wrapping my head around why they're even in CoH when the US army built like 3 for testing and decided it was a dead end.
Or why you can build ostwinds when maybe 200 were built in WW2, yet the tigers and king tigers you can only have one of out at a time (Or in the case of the KT one per match, ever) there were at least a thousand of each built.
Too obscure? Anyone remember the Fish Food in Jet Force Gemini? They even flat out tell you it does nothing.

I'm assuming you're meaning shows and not shoes. That would be very surreal. Anyway, at least some of them are vaguely entertaining. The most pointless thing in GTA 4 as far as I'm concerned is...MrDeckard said:

He spends half the game wanting you to go bowling with him, and the rest getting into trouble or wasting your money.
Actually, I found the most useless feature in Mafia 2 was the sandbox.Judgement101 said:
They would've been better just leaving you on a linear path without the illusion of an open city or maybe they could've worked on the city more, put some fun stuff in there to pass the time when not on missions... one of the two.
Either way, Mafia 2 is a great linear game but the sandbox part is a blank canvas for the story to be splattered all over, it doesn't have any paint of it's own...
Are you for real?warprincenataku said:
Almost all games require save slots, you see I ain't here for the game, it's the other way around.
Dicking around in Oblivion (quite literally "dicking around" with some mods, cough) for hours on end requires save files, the main story is nothing to speak of in Oblivion, you see, so the real meat of it all is exploring the land for side-quests, not rushing through the game and ignoring most of it's content because I can't afford to sit around due to lack of a save feature.
My friend convinced me to buy that game recently... I've saved so many times already. Game is huge, I've easily goten hopelessly lost so many times. First game where I had to bother to read the signs on the roads telling me were to go.MiracleOfSound said:
I'd say my pointlss thing is actually in that game, saving Morrowind since you find out in Oblivion that after your character left, Morrowind got basically destroyed by a moon faling on them and setting off the Red mountain. So really makes going through all that trouble pretty pointless towards te end. Unless of course you wanted ... revenge! For what they did to your character in a past life.
Also I hate those mission or quests in games where they make you protect some "important" character through endless waves of enemies only for them to die moments later in a scripted event, when you got so pissed off protecting them you would have gladly killed them yourself.
Actually the knife is probably the most dangerous weapon in the whole game. One hit is enough to kill most enemies, so when you get into close quarters fighting it's much more effective to just pull out the knife and run through the enemy slashing them all apart.MeXR said:
The most pointless thing in a game ever though, and I'm surprised it hasn't been said already; Gore level - Low/Medium/High/Off.
Did anyone EVER have it set to anything but High?
The "new" navigation "feature" in Mass Effect 2 where you guide the Normandy around a system by clicking the area you want it to fly to. Totally pointless waste of time adding that feature.
I will agree with what several folk have said and also pick on the .32 pistol in Fallout 3. Douglas Bader has a harder kick...
