Empire Total War, i wanted to like that game so much but in comparison to Rome. It was a enormous let down.

Modern warfare 2, only got it because I knew my friends wouldn't be playing or talking about anything else, same as cod 4 and still broken as hell.
Eh, I beg to differ, it's a handy guiding tool at best. It said that my old computer couldn't run Far Cry 2 even on low settings. Strangely, there I was playing it with my settings maxed.Tinneh said:
Ah yes, such a shame that was. I really want to love that game and see that I could love it, be it not that it's so horribly broken. And because I've apparently strayed a bit too far from the set path I've horribly broken the main quest or something. I can't even finish it the way I like now! That's not how you handle a sandbox game.Zom-B said:
Final Fantasy 13. Bought it release day and played it for about 2 hours and got bored. My girlfriend put in about 10 and got bored. Holy shit, it's goddamned boring.
Black Ops.
I've played the first 3 single player stages and about 2 hours of multiplayer.
Battlefield: Bad Company 2 is just so much less bullshitty and so much more fun.
And Battlefield 3 looks just plain orgasmic.
So I really have no reason to ever play Black Ops.
Because if I want to play a silly spammy shooter, I'll play TF2 and have fun doing it.

Scribblenauts. Bored after two missions solving all my problems with tyrannosaurs. Probably a few ps2 games that I've since blocked from memory.
I bought a MTG game on steam, only to find it crashing every 3 minutes. I eventually quit trying and never played again.

Black&White. Bought it on release day. Got home and installed it. Got confronted with a horrible localized version in my own native language, the most crap voice acting you could possibly imagine.
Some genius thought that it might be a good idea to have both Belgian and Dutch people do the voice work in the same game. They have completely different pronounciation. It would be like mixed American English and regular English.
On top of that, the stupid childish statistics (how many times did your creature take a shit) and that GOD AWFUL sailor song made me take the freaking thing back right away.

I guess the only silver lining is that I waited and didn't buy it right away. When I did actually buy it I had some unexpected extra cash so I splurged and spent $45 on a used copy at Best Buy. I'd be even more bummed if I had paid full retail for such an unpolished final product.Cowabungaa said:

Sounds like something game companies do to their customers. ha
CoD WAW, PC, special edition. This was before my switch to ps3, of course; I had an aging Windows XP.
It was a truly amazing game; my computer didn't like it so much, and thus every loading screen it would crash terribly and erase all data.
My second most regretted purchase was f.e.a.r. 2. I don't think I need to say much more.

Either Dragon Age or New Vegas. I bought Dragon Age on sale, but got the collectors edition of New Vegas. New Vegas was slightly better, but still not that great, and not worth $70.
I really shouldn't have bought Bioshock (especially not at the same time as Fallout 3). I never liked it and hardly played it. Was still mighty expensive too.
