What game do you most regret wasting money on?

[MercurySteam]

Just Cause 2 and probably Wet. WET had a great soundtrack but the replay value of a used condom, and didn't really have anything worth coming back for. Just Cause 2 was just plain mediocre, and Yahtzee was right - "It takes a lot of effort to make destruction boring". I bought it because I was desperate for a decent game to play.

I won't make that mistake again.

bad company 2 it soooooooooooooooooooooo boring i should've listen to yasthe

It's spelt - Yahtzee, and BF:BC2 has a moderatly good campaign and epic multiplayer.

Yahtzee doesn't care about multiplayer so no, he wasn't right.

Virtual Fighter 4 for the PS2, granted it was like $5, I only played it for about 5 minutes before getting bored

 

[Clirck]

Modern Warfare and Modern Warefare 2, I only played them for two weeks after buying them, now they just gather dust.

 

[MercurySteam]

Nier

Was it Nierly enough to make you want to kill yourself?

Ha! He made a funny.

I actually considered buying this game, but I've never bought a Square Enix game that I've loved. This is why I have mixed feelings about Deus Ex 3.

 

[MercurySteam]

People will probably kill me for this, but Halo 3, don't get me wrong, I love XBOX360, I play Gears 2 often, but I never really got into Halo

Same. I loved the Halo games for a long time, but when I finally got Halo 3, I wasn't as impressed as I would've liked to have been.

It's all up to you Reach!

Red Alert 3.. What a load of crap.. Recipe to destroy games: 1 Start out as a small independent company, 2 sell out to EA..

Anyone want a free copy of it? As long as you pay the shipping, it's yours.. It's not even registered, so you should be able to play it online with no problem what so ever!

The third installment of the Tiberium series also sucked, but I never bought it though..

Haven't tried the fourth one yet, but my prediction is that its an ever lasting hyper-orgasm of particles.. So much crap flying everywhere that you don't know if your playing a game or getting high on acid..

I swear to Red Alert 2, that was a pretty decent game.. Oh, and Generals too.. At least EA did something right there.. They didn't have a title to demolish, so they made a new one, and it worked!

Mercenaries 2
*e3 09*

"We made the game so that we give the player thhe power to do whatever they want, pls they can blow s%*@ up!"

Me: "Wow that explosion looks cool"

*Bought the game*

Me: "WTF!? Why are the bullets moving in slow motion? Why can't I throw designators for airstrikes? Why are there missles beside local stores? Why can I survivwe a tank shell? Why can I easily jack a helicopter? Most importantly WHY IS THIS GAME SO SHIT!!"

 

[Goth Skunk]

Star Wars: The Force Unleashed.

 

[martin's a madman]

Kameo, or Battlefield: 2.

What didn't you like about BF2?

It was impossible to get it to not lag, I suppose if it worked properly it could have been more fun.
But the interface outside of game was also super-awful.
And I disliked that there was no campaign.

 

[migo]

Giants Citizen Kabuto for the PS2, I didn't pay a whole lot for it but I was really disappointed given the hype it got.

Descent for PS1 was pretty terrible too.

 

[Trebort]

Star Wars: The Force Unleashed.

Seriously, I bought it when it came out expecting something amazing, and it was a load of shit.

Totally wasted £45.

 

[Lordmarkus]

Modern Warfare 2. Played it like a maniac for a month before realizing it was meh with a big M and lag issues.

And of course I can not get rid of it because of the damn Steam activation.

 

[Quaxar]

Bikini zombie slayers. Oh man, I hoped that it would be full of cheap laughs (to make the $10 I put down worth it) and bouncing boobies.

Just be glad you didn't misinterpret the title. I wouldn't want to fight zombies wearing the shortest swimsuits possible.

Anyway, most recently I regret my 20? for Alone in the Dark: Inferno. It was confusing, it was boring and whenever you jump to the next chapter because you have no clue what else to do you lose all your stuff and sometimes even have to instantly face zombies without anything to help. I must have mixed up something, the "horror"-part clearly belonged to the gameplay, not the story.

 

[The Geek Lord]

Tales of Symphonia: Dawn of the New World. Worst. Sequel. Evah.

 

[chinangel]

People will probably kill me for this, but Halo 3, don't get me wrong, I love XBOX360, I play Gears 2 often, but I never really got into Halo

ditto.

 

[gibboss28]

Star Trek online, Spore, Global Agenda, Heroes of Might and Magic V, Guild Wars, Assassin's Creed (played the 2nd one first, brought the first to get the rest of story...didn't pan out that well) Majesty, Supreme Commander 2, Darksiders, Resident Evil 5, & Final Fantasy 3 for the DS.

Yeah those were the games I was most disappointed with.
