about three days

which is the time it took me to get to the nightmare fade part of dragon age: origins

I ran out of health poulices, and there is absolutely no way of me getting more, because of the fact that I have only one save, and I overwrite it every time I save

I guess Borderlands is the closest thing to that. It all basically came down to shoot bad guys and hand in quests, repeatedly. And the multiplayer is absolutely horrible, in my opinion. Really don't like it, rather do L4D multiplayer. Yet, I still play it.

Then of course when I was a young kid all those gamecube games I bought that I didn't realize sucked. These days I always analyze games VERY closely before making my decision.

GTA 4.

I played that game all the way through, begining to end... I finished it over a period of 3 days and in the end I just said "well, that was boring".
the story was also another gta cliche

1)Protaganist: hey, I just came back/came here looking for a better life!

2)friend/relative: hey, I/a friend of mine has some jobs for you

3)protaganist: I guess everything is going to be alright

4)person protaganist is working for: I have no more use for you, so I am going to have you assassinated/driven out of town

5)*something tragic happens/a loved one or relative is killed*

6)protaganist: I swear to get revenge on the person who did this

7)*protaganist gets revenge*

repeat steps 2 through 7 as needed

Animal Crossing. The first one. It took me about two months to realize that it was more boring than a stack of firewood reading bad poetry in a blank concrete room.

Assassin's Creed. I was expecting it to be amazing and kept convincing myself it would get better until I realized it was one of the worst games I'd ever played in my life.

My expectations were so low for ACII, it would have been impossible for me not to like it.

12 hours or so into Lost Odysee.

I put up with the terribly hammy, cringe inducing emotional scenes. I even put up with the children, the children that had voices that went right through me, the children that did nothing but cry, whine and be a general pain in the ass with no likable features about any one of them.

I quit on the 3rd disk.
This one got me to lol. Cooke is actually voice by the same person that did Phil and Lil in the Rugrats.

Honestly, I have no idead what's the longest it took me to hate a game, but I do know which was the shortest: Two Worlds. I hated it 3 seconds into the first in game conversation. It was terrible. T.T

I can't really understand what you're saying.

For me, it was Fable 2. I had a lot of fun for the first couple hours, but then the combat, plot, and gameplay got very stale. However, I really didn't realize it until I ran into Reaver and the so-called "open moral choice game" railroaded me into allying with him.
Yeah I hate that moral choice system. Seriously, eating chickens makes you evil? it's like they got a bunch of 8 year olds to design the choices, and for an rpg the story is way to short. I played it for a couple hours, finished it and thought "yeah, I don't think i'll keep you".

I'd pretty much almost reached the end of Final Fantasy 10 before I started thinking "What the hell has happened to this franchise?"

Far Cry 2.
That was probably one of the most incredibly boring games I can remember playing.
Yet I persisted in playing it thinking it will eventually get better. It didn't.

To be fair, eating chickens doesn't make you EVIL, it just makes you corrupt. Unfortunately, corruption/purity is just about the most poorly defined concept in the game, to the point where nobody even cares.
