Poll: Your most guilt-ridden gaming purchase?

[Jacob.pederson]

What is your most guilt-ridden gaming purchase? Your sitting in front of your brand spanking new Ion Rocker Drum set, your 200+ Rock Band dlc collection, your Zune Halo 3 collectors edition, or your Logitech G27 Racing wheel . . . thinking: Do I really need this?

Yes! Of course you do!

I had to have it for my stereoscopic 3d . . . the LCD's ghost like mad in 3d mode. So there!

Probably guitar hero, because I didn't play it enough to warrant the purchase.

I don't really have that many expensive things, just alot of them.

For a while it was my PS3, but I've been playing it a lot more of late.

Buying Far Cry 2 DLC

World of Warcraft. What an overrated chunk.

My gaming rig, close to £1500. Then again I've a 32" LCD HDTV....and 5.1 Digital Dolby Surround Sound....

My Gaming Set-up, none of it is needed but all of it is loved like a child.

In recent memory, has to be Bioshock 2. I bought a PS3 which came with 4 games, then Bayonetta, then Mass Effect 2... then Bioshock 2. Never bought so many gaming related things in such a short space of time - oh the guilt! Now Battlefield Bad Company 2, Final Fantasy XIII and God of War 3 are round the corner...... THE GUILT.....

Yea, I bought World Tour and never played it again after beating the drum tour. It just don't have the staying power of Rock Band.

Buying Bioshock.
Now before you all flame my living ass off, let me explain.

Its a game who's big draw is exploring its world and finding out its secrets. But once I did all that, what I was left with was a shooter with mediocre gameplay at best. I should have just rented it...

Yea, I don't even like to add up the cost of my sli GTX280s. Not to mention the wattage they pull. BUT, Playing LFD in stereoscopic 3d . . . priceless.

Bayonetta is worth any price!

Amen. Although I bought it for my wife so I don't know if that counts.

 

[Disaster Button]

I bought a PS3, played about 2 games on it then let it just gather dust next to my shiny new 360.. which is also being used less. And oh god don't even get me started about the Wii. My PC is just too powerful.

 

[Always_Remain]

Prolly my HDMI cable THAT I CAN'T EVEN USE or the fact that I just bled my dad out for 250 dollars... FOR A FUCKING AMAZING TV... Compared to my old one.

Two things - MW2: Hardened Edition. I don't regret getting that, because I enjoyed MW2 and CoD Classic, but a few days after purchasing it, I saw it receive a £20 price cut from the website I bought it from.

Secondly, Mad Moxxi's Underdome Riot. It's awful. I remember saying to myself as I downloaded it 'it's not like I need another reason to play Borderlands.' I was given a reason not to.

I got that beat. Picked up the ps3 literally days before the price cut rumours started.
