We all have things that we regret. For some of us its that we let that special girl get away from us. For others its that they forgot to punch your little brother when he stole the last cookie, and others regret spending all there money on steam sales. This thread is for those who regret spending 60 of there hard earned dollars on a game that ended up being crap.

For me FF13 will always be this game. It is the embodyment of horrible game design. Looked nice though..

I suppose if you include the extra hardware exclusive to the game, Rockband 3. A drum set and guitar along with the game. The drum can't even sync properly because the sound is delayed, not early. You can adjust it from 0+ but I need to go below 0. The game only had a very small handful of songs I actually listen to, so that had to be the biggest waste of money someone else has ever spent on me. That's right. The ugly Christmas sweater stereotype is of greater value.

Borderlands.

I know a lot of people like it, and to each their own, but it got boring REAL fast for me.

Sucks cause I usually never buy games at launch and wait for them to drop in price, UNLESS they're co-op, in which case I get them when my friends get them. Such was the case with Borderlands.

Two Worlds 1. Really wanted a new RPG and I tried to convince myself it wasn't utter shit but I eventually had to realize that it was fucking awful.

*sigh*... had nice graphics though

FF13 for me too. pretty, but crap and boring.

CoD: WaW. crap compared to CoD4.

Rock Band 3. another boring piece of shit

Gears of War 2. single player was good, but multiplayer was just shit, it just got noobyfied.


i try not to buy games at '$60' anymore, but dammit triple A games are marketed so bloody well.

Castlevania lords of shadow. It wasn't a terrible game. I've certainly played far worse games (Dark Sector and Tekken 6 come to mind) but I only paid $5 each for those because I suspected they would be lousy to begin with. If I paid $5, or even $19.99 I may have felt like I got my money worth but paying 60$ for that fixed camera button mashing bug-a-thon was obscene. I almost felt like saying Ratchet and Clank: A Crack in Time because I beat it in 5 hours, but truth be told I loved every second of those 5 hours so it wasn't a bad game, just too short.

I paid $80 for Call of duty black ops.
Worst game I have played since Oblivion came out.
Yes, black ops is even worse than Mass effect 2.

Worst game I've ever bought at 60 bucks...

Hands down...

Metroid: Other M. I bought it on launch day so there were no reviews out yet. I loved all previous Metroid games, so I was hoping for the best.

vvEnding and game details...vv
Playing through the game with all of your powers, but being unable to USE THEM until your ex boyfriend lover dad figure tells you, sucked. I have to say, the most difficult part of the game was running through a lava world where you take a ton of damage from the heat. Right as you get through it and reach the safe zone, Adam calls and says he'll let you use the armor that protects against melting flesh. UGH! His condescending voice also pissed me off. I died 3 times on that section, only to find out that Samus could have just given him the middle finger and activated all of her special powers to nuke the dang place, since that was the objective anyway(pretty much).

At the very end of the game, you are expected to use a superbomb. A superbomb that, throughout the entire game, everyone tells you NOT to use because it is too powerful. There's never instruction on how to use it, and you can't even if you fiddle around with the controls, either. You have 2 seconds to react to start charging it after the boss battle. Any longer and it won't charge in time and you die, so you have to restart. Worst game ending ever since it was so anti climactic.

There were a few cool things that came back from old games as little cameos... but other than that, it seemed like the whole game was just building up for New Game+. Heck, at the end...
Samus says something along the lines of, 'Adam left something behind, I have to find it by going in this door. HOWEVER, this door won't open until I've reached my full potential(collected EVERYTHING).

I had more fun with Lair and Bakugan: Battle Brawlers. No jokes... I play B:BB sometimes when I'm bored with Asn Creed Brotherhood and etc. games. Just goes to show that different games are liked by different people, I suppose. And to me, Metroid: Other M was a waste of money.

TL;DR

Metroid: Other M was a waste of money. The choice to add a backstory for Samus was awful. I wanted to play the game for GAMEPLAY, not half-assed story. Lots of loose ends also made it seem awkward.

GTA IV without a doubt. After all the perfect 10 reviews, etc. I was expecting an upgraded version of GTA San Andreas, not a wannabe 80's Al Pacino movie with added bowling with your cousin.
