Worst game PURCHASE you ever made.

[FieryTrainwreck]

Two Worlds 2. Total impulse purchase (sometimes I hate you, Steam), almost full price, knowing it was probably flawed but hoping I could see past its issues and enjoy another open-world(ish) RPG in the vein of Oblivion.

It's a fucking horrible game. It boggles my mind that this piece of shit somehow garnered a 75%+ average score on gamerankings.com. Everyone who marked it higher than a 6 should be punched in the head.

 

[Sarcastic_Applause]

gotta be a tie between 2 games:

The Force Unleashed 2; because it was padded as hell, and just downright terrible endings.

and

Dead Space; i expected a HORROR game. I got so annoyed with that game, just downright dull and not scary

 

[NerfedFalcon]

Metroid: Other M (20 dollars). It wasn't the story (that was bearable) or the gameplay (it was basically Fusion in 3D, and I liked that). No, they had to put in a boss fight against TWO of those f***ing giant chameleons. If I didn't spend long enough for the music loop to get annoying just waiting for them to uncloak and be hittable, and if they'd stayed hittable for longer than two seconds, then I MIGHT have played it all the way through and even liked it. As it stands...

Supreme Commander 2. it had a horrible campaign, and was just generally shite

 

[Crayven]

Dawn of war 2 retribution. It was a good game but its mostly an online game and the people I had to play with is horrible. And because there are so bad, the waiting times are long.
Wish id just got another month of wow or fallout NV 3 weeks earlier.

 

[Sordak]

The MageKnight game. god it was awfull chances are you never heard from it

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GEIHFlNuY1Y it was such a TERRIBLE game

 

[Spudgun Man]

Battlefield: Bad Company

Just why? I hated that thing, still finished it but Christ, they made a second one? Ergh...

 

[Brown Cap]

Medal of Honor Airbourne. PS3. Beat it in 6 hours, same day I bought it. Multiplayer Blows.

 

[ExplosionProofTaco]

Duke Nukem Forever...
It was shit and to make matters worse I had paid $99 for it (fucking exploitative NZ prices..)

Thanks Duke, Now I can't embrace Hype without remembering what happened when I hyped about YOU!

 

[LongAndShort]

Motherfucking Call of Duty 3. I was a fan of the series and still am a fan of the series... made by Infinity Ward. CoD3, however, can burn in a special sort of hell.

 

[Something Amyss]

Tales of Symphonia's probably my worst purchase. That game was so bad all we could do was mock it mercilessly and even that got boring after like 20 minutes.

I honestly think I had more fun with Dick Tracy for the NES.

 

[Something Amyss]

Duke Nukem Forever...
It was shit and to make matters worse I had paid $99 for it (fucking exploitative NZ prices..)

Thanks Duke, Now I can't embrace Hype without remembering what happened when I hyped about YOU!

That's a valuable life less, though. You really should be grategul to DNF.

"Hype" encourages bad choices.

 

[Doctor Greenthumb]

Alone in the dark collectors ed for £50 terrible just terrible game

 

[F'Angus]

Army Men: Operation Meltdown... Cost me 20 quid back in the day for Ps1 and I've hardly even played it.

 

[SIXVI06-M]

I don't think people should say that a game is bad because it didn't work on their computer. That's like saying my car is bad because I neglect to fix it and I don't fill it up with petrol and the tires with air.

If it doesn't work - try telling us why and if you even bothered to rectify the problem, if it's ACTUALLY the developers fault and it doesn't work on a MAJORITY of peoples computers and is a commonly known problem, then that's probably okay.

If it doesn't work because you're too freaking lazy to get compatible drivers for your hardware or you're trying to run a game on a redundant computer made from palm trees and coconuts (which I think is actually pretty cool), or the internet connection you have is one of those things you got that 'fell from the back of a truck'; then the problem isn't so much the game or the people who developed it, it's just simply because you're either not bothering to meet the requirements of the game or not bothering to figure out what is wrong with your COMPUTER and simply just blaming it on the game.

I'm talking to YOU people:

Sacred 2 I bought of Steam....can't even get the damn game to work, it just crashes whenever it starts up because its incompatible with ATI cards or something. Pathetic.

Have you tried looking for drivers? Have you bothered doing a bit of research about common issues and such about the game before getting it? Buying games these days is like buying a house. Buy it outright without inspecting it and checking out the neighborhood, and you may as well be buying a very nicely presented yet derelict shanty.

God so many games.... amnesia (never worked on my laptop) ...

But it for some reason works on others laptops?... so is the problem actually the game? or your laptop?

GTAIV. Bought it for $30 a couple years back thinking it was a bargain, only to spend hours going through the Games for Windows Live bullshit AND THEN find out the game won't run properly.

I managed to get mine running. I will agree, the Windows Live thing is a totally redundant feature for GTA4 to be running with, but once I got it running, I found the game pretty damn engrossing. Why isn't the game running properly? what's the difference between your not-working copy of GTA4 and my working copy?

I sigh ppls.

Anyway! my worst purchase. Shadowrun... what... was... I... THINKING?! It looked cool, and it was an impulse buy. Never again. I do a LOT of research before I buy a game these days

 

[baddude1337]

Probably Borderlands: GOTY with all the DLC. In my opinion, it's boring, sucks and is just terrible. I intended to play it as a single player RPG but on your own most of it is basically impossible and its such a boring fucking grind.

 

[Retronana]

Final fantasy tactics: War of the lions (for the PSP) was a huge piece of shit IMO, considering some praise it as best in the series and even best of all time it is flat-out terrible, poorly explained, boring and didn't age well at all. And this isn't bias as my favorite DS game of all time is Final fantasy tactics A2.

I mean disgeae doesn't feel nearly as dated as that did.

 

[MetallicaRulez0]

DBZ Burst Limit - DBZ Burst Limit is just a shitty game. No explanation needed.

Mortal Kombat - Mortal Kombat is a strictly inferior fighting game compared to MvC3 or Street Fighter 4, so again, no explanation needed.

Fallout 3 GOTY Edition - Here's where I should explain myself. Fallout 3 had the potential to be a good game, but instead it was a boring borefest trudging through the boring nuclear desert of boredom. This game needed better shooting mechanics and a much better travel system to speed it up and make it less tedious. Just because you're an RPG, that's no excuse for having horrific shooter controls. It needed more fast travel or just a more tightly-packed game world so you didn't spend 20 minutes hoofing it between every single mission. I understand exploration is what a lot of people enjoy about Bethesda games, but that also puts off a lot of the rest of us because it just makes the game seem empty and boring.

Command and conquer: Tiberium Twilight

It has almost NOTHING to do with what C&C used to be
-Base building: Nope
-Resource harvesting: nope
-Super weapons: nope

The only thing there is a giant robot that farts units.
