Shadow the Hedgehog. this was before i got a job too, so i had to save for weeks to get it... i used to really like sonic, ok? when you were just running, it was ok, but when they forced you to solve puzzles or find 20 guys in the whole level and kill them, or use thee guns hen you dont want to, it sucks.
Crackdown 2 for $60, not including tax. I felt very betrayed after that.
There are no valve fanboys who use consoles as there preferred platform, such a thing would be a contradiction.LordSphinx said:
$60? Apparently that's about £36.88 over in good old Britain.
Is that a lot of money for a game in America? Because I'd say that was a pretty good price over here. Brand new games here tend to cost around the region of £45-50 which is roughly $80 so I'm told.
Either way, the worst game I ever bought brand new that I regretted almost immediately was LOTR: Conquest. Good heavens that was a bad game! Worst use of the LOTR license I've ever seen.

Dante's Inferno...Terrible,the only redeeming quality of that game was receiving an achievement for killing unbaptized babies.I was just so desperate for a new game and thought,whoa a game based on one of the greatest literary works in history.This cant be that bad,wow was I wrong.
Bioshock 2. It wasn't the worst game I've ever bought, but it's the worst game I paid 60 bucks for.
None, as a Brit I have to pay nearly double that, you yanks don't know how good you've got it.
EDIT: Worst game I payed full price for though was Fable 2, I didn't hate it but it wasn't worth wwhat I payed for it.

$300 isn't a lot. It's possible to earn that from one paycheck working minimum wage shit jobs in the US.zfactor said:
Hmm... Now for the topic itself? For some odd reason I just can't remember the price of games when I buy them. I also tend to research games before I buy them. I do agree with that other guy that Bioshock has no reply value.Devil May Cry 4 also comes to mind but I didn't buy it at release. Iunno... Just can't think of any really, I may have squandered my money when I was a kid on bad N64 and GameCube games but I don't think I truly regret the purchase.
I feel your pain buddy, Metroid is also one of my favorite series and to see it be butchered like this is very maddening. People used to say that the weakest games in the franchise was metroid 2 by just a little bit. Now its undeniable that the worst game in the franchise is other M. it has all the problems metroid 2 has (Very limited exploration is a big one) but on top of all of that it has its own set of issues that drop it into bad game territory, One of them being the sappy interpretation of samus we got.Drummie666 said:
I'm gonna have to say Halo Reach. I've never really enjoyed Halo games as I have always found them mediocre, so I have no idea why I actually got it at release. Played it for 2 hours, haven't touched it since.
No game is worth 60 bucks unless you can match that amount of hours in gameplay fun. Most games are really worth 30 bucks but for some odd reason they started out at 60. Red dead redemption was 60 bucks and I really got into the hype but didn't buy it cause it was 60 bucks. Now it's like 32 to 34 dollars in places and that's a deal I can genuinely afford and not feel ripped off.
The only game I ever bought that was that expensive was Dynasty warriors 6 Empires and I actually got a lot out of the experience so it paid itself back and I still play it from time to time. I don't have an xbox gold account so I don't even remotely consider games who make there price tag what it is because of what it does on multiplayer.
I really don't understand why 60 bucks is the standard price. We really should stop buying these games at this price tag it's rarely worth it especially games that are fun but have really low replay value when it's just you and no one else playing it.

I'll play it with you. I disagree with you that it's bad. What I'm curious of is why is your play time for Left 4 Dead so high? Did you have friends to play with to keep it interesting. I got 2 then 1 and I must say 2 has more features and is staying fresh with mutations. I guess you must like it because of the darker theme it had. Iunno this is all just speculation until I hear from you but I really liked L4D2 and would play it more if I weren't so busy.Maddyfiren said:Never bought a game for 60 dollars, actually. Only 50.
My mom spent 50 dollars on Epic Mickey which she got the family for Christmas, the only person who's played it is me and I could only stand an hour of it. *shudder*
The second of which is Left 4 Dead 2, which I also got for Christmas. Don't get me wrong it's the 2nd most played game on my Steam list, but that's not saying much compared to other playtimes and the horrible taste that game left in my mouth. Also, killed the whole franchise for me. Thanks, Steam forums.
