Harvest Moon: A Wonderful World. I really enjoyed Friend of Mineral Town, but it just didn't do well in 3D. I regret buying it, but I really want to get into it.

Spent ~$500 to completely overhaul (CPU, Mobo, RAM, GPU) my PC over holiday about 2 years back. It was my first build so I didn't know much at the time. Looking back, I probably should have spent less on the RAM and bought Crucial instead. Could have used the leftover money to get slightly better graphics card.

Oh well, hindsight is always 20/20.

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.
I got this 12 foot HDMI cable that works great unless you set 1080p resolution. Then it pukes. Since I got it for connecting the ps3 to the 1080p Screen, kinda delegates it to tangly paperweight duty.
Oh that's just piss. lol Tell me it's not a rocketfish. I just can't use mine cuz my 360 is ancient and I don't have an HD cable box.
It's actually a no-noname from newegg.com I figured a cable is a cable :eek: oops.
Well I hear Monster Cables are like heavenly but pricey. The guy at best buy seemed pretty convince that Rocketfish is good.
DEMONDAVE!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I DIDNT KNOW YOU POSTED HERE!!!!!!!!!!!!! DUDE WHAT A COINCIDENCE!!!!

For a while it was my PS3, but I've been playing it a lot more of late.
I've 'almost' never used a console as much as the PS3.

The thing is just too convenient in so many respects.

The Sims 3. WHY DID I BUY IT?
Same reason I bought Spore. We are suckers.

I'd have to say mine was Street Figher IV. I bought it and was super excited because it looked so cool and awesome... played it twice and decided I regretted the purchase and traded it in.

I forgot I hated the D-pad input of street fighter games compared to the face button inputs of games like Soul Caliber.

The Xbox 360. Some backup system it turned out to be. I play that thing maybe once...a month while I've been playing the Nintendo Wii for nearly 4 years.

I'm going to say, at least the most expensive, was my collector's edition of RE5. At least I still use the "messenger bag" it came with.

Otherwise my most "guilt-ridden gaming purchase," was buying Starfox Adventures on the day it was released... at full price. Why? Because it was Rare's last game on a Nintendo console. STUPID.
