Unreal Tournament 3, that was a massive letdown, not even close as adrenaline pumping as UT99. Imo they payed way too much attention to the looks, and the vehicles screw up the original UT99 feel as well.
Spore, one of my biggest letdowns ever. I never thought the editors would be that...uninspiring. The gameplay itself was simply shallow and way too easy, bleeh.
Seconded, on both counts. Seriously, when I picked up UT3, I certainly had no idea I would be trading it in. The singleplayer "campaign" was horrendous. As much as I tried, squinting while running around the Deck DM level only worked for so long before I was utterly sick of the whole thing. The souls of countless Nali scream out in anguish everytime you play this game.

As for Spore. Well, not only did I regret buying it due to it being a complete and utter piece of unadulterated toss, I also regretted going overboard due to the hype and buying the special edition. Also, I had just moved into my own place at the time and had purchased, among other things, a nice wood (oak? pine? I have no idea, but that's going off on a tangent) coffee table. By the time I had reached the space stage, my patience had worn so thin that a physical outburst was the only remaining option. My poor unsuspecting coffee table still has a fist-sized dent in it to this day.

So, thank you Spore. I regret buying you because you made me angry enough for the first time in years to cause actual physical damage to something. I also regret buying you because you are a PC game, therefore I am unable to get a refund for you.

Then I could have bought another 360 controller and copy of GTA4 and gone bowling with Roman. Twice, at the same time, and still have more fun than I would playing Spore.

Animal Crossing for the Wii

Two days after I got it, I traded it to my friend for his Condemned which I could have bought for $10. I still think I came out on top...

Spore is a close second...Well...I guess Spore should be first since I downloaded it online and I couldn't trade it for a much better game =P

I tend to avoid horrible games at the last minute. I thought Vampire Rain was going to be amazing...and I changed my mind at the last second. I really wanted DMC4, Assassin's Creed, Fallout 3, Soul Calibur 4, Too Human, and Silent Hill 5 but I decided not to and it all seemed to work out.

Now I'm getting those same iffy feelings about RE5...

GRAW 2
I just never play it. Popped it in my xbox for an hour and got bored.
Orange Box
I sometimes play it but all it ever does it collect dust.
Dead Space
This game just sucks! I thought it would be like my favorite game, Resident Evil 4, but all it is a cheap, but pretty, rip off by EA.

Far Cry 2 on PC. What's stupid is I have 2 copies that I don't want because one came with my Video Card.
Oblivion on X360. Returned it though and bought on PC instead.

Mortal Kombat: Sub-Zero. I think it was only ten bucks, but it truly is the kind of game you'd have to pay someone to play.

In a word... Spore

In a bunch of words: I thought Bioshock was going to grab me, and it didn't, I thought Mass Effect was going to grab me... and it didnt... I'm semi-regretful about buying them as it stands right now, but I'll probably come back to them later and give them another go.

There's probably much worse culprits but they don't come to mind right now...weird :p

The worst two games there has ever been, and I owned them all.

-Note:Owned, I wish I could say I destroyed them, but in truth I just sold them to people at by school.

Neverwinter Nights 2, Warhammer Online.
I enjoyed NWN 2 very much just not the expansions they were retarded as for Warhammer online great idea and was a little buggy at first but they didnt update anything they just did fixes and the game got boring however i think that if it survives that it will become a great game to play
