Final Fantasy 13 easily.
I tried to like it, I really did - but between the completely linear levels, terribly told story (the story by itself could be decent but the way its presented is horribly paced, and the way the characters act is completely idiotic, on top of the replacement of character's emotional development with stupid melodrama), and an auto-pilot battle system (yeah, yeah, I know paradigm shifts - but even at its best I still felt like I was pretty much on auto-pilot for most the game).
I don't think I've ever regretted buying and investing so much time in a game before.

Well I'm primarily a PC gamer so I don't ever spend $60 on a game. But the worst games I spent full price for are:
1. Space Siege - I must have been out of my mind. It was a time when I literally had nothing to spend money on but games. Such a bad decision. I don't think I finished the first level.
2. Warhammer Online - I had fun with it for a while before it died. They never got the classes even close to balanced and the "Horde" side was massively overpopulated. That + the subscription fees made it pretty bad.
3. Fallout 3 - This game just didn't do it for me. I really should load up some of the great mods that have been created for this game but I don't know if I can bring myself to doing it.

There's a lot of hate here for DA:O. I don't get it, I played it longer than nearly any other game I've purchased. If only there weren't so damned many spiders!
I have to quote the FF13 people here. I'm almost at the end, and I can only stomach a few minutes at a time once every few months. Pretty much anything I've bought from Rockstar Games. I don't think they make bad games, they just don't make games for me.
Two Worlds and Fable 2 are very high up there. The entire Fable series feels patronizing.
