Biggest waste of money

Sonny, I Watched the Vault Bein' Built!
I just realized that I should have bought Left 4 Dead instead of Fallout 3 and it got me thinking. What game was worst purchase for you? Something you really regret spending money on?
 
Fallout 3 : collector's edition


And actually, I'm probably going to sell it on Ebay along with a first US edition of Fallout 1 ( big box ) because that's how much I dislike the series now... :(
 
You dislike the series now? That's just stupid.

Seems Bethesda games have good resale value, so you should be able to sell Fallout 3 CE without much of a loss.
 
STALKER

I get physcially nauseous when playing that game on my current monitor so can't play it at all.
 
Let me clarify this :

I had a sort of mental construction of what Fallout was/should be. It was rather clear to me...until I played that giant turd of a game. The thing is that for a while I couldn't believe that it was such a horrid game and I forced myself into finishing it, and replayed it for a while, hoping that it would entertain me in the end. It didn't. The only result it had was to spoil the other games for me in the end. I don't know why or how this could happen but I don't feel the passion I used to feel about this universe anymore. Now to say that I dislike the series was maybe a bit exagerrated but when I look at my Fallout collection now, I just feel sorry for how the series has ended and to look at this Fallout 1 box just angers me now...

Far Cry 2.

Boring as shit.
:puke:
oh man...i know how you must feel. that game is shit.
I mean what were they thinking when they were designing that game? even thinking of it makes me depressed!
I would rather play minesweeper.
I usually spend my money very carefully, i read the reviews, watch some gameplay footage and try the demo.
I also sometimes give the game a rent if i am really curious about it.

as for the Fallout 3 CE...well, i bought it for 45 euros and later sold it for 30 euros. Can't say that i miss it.
 
HL2 Collector's Edition. it might not be the worst game i ever bought, but i paid through the ass for a goddamn tiny artbooklet and a fucking bad quality uglyass T-shirt?
(so i used the T-shirt at Krav Maga practise, it got torn on the first fucking practise...)

ugh... ripped off!
 
Far cry 2.
Jesus i hate those random jeeps, the re-appearing enemies and the useless pea shooter guns.
Oh, and total lack of plot doesnt help it.
:evil:
 
I choose the titles I buy very carefully. But I seem to find Silverfall unplayable.

How so? Hardware or gameplay and did you get the expansion pack or else it is unplayable.

Luckily I got Star Wars Rebellion (or as it is called in the Uk, Supremacy) of a mate for free so it was good value for money.

Hmm a fair few games come to mind but I can't remember the names, mostly cruddy playstation games.
 
What sucks the most is that I bought Fallout 3 from Steam so now I'm pretty much stuck with it.

Some others are

Killer 7
I bought it cause it looked interesting but the gameplay sucked balls and the whole game was annoying as hell. Sold it the next day.

PGR 4
I played maybe one race ever since I bought it 6 months ago, it has to be the least interesting racer I've played in a long time.
 
I bought one of the army men playstation games. That was a long time ago when I both played console and wasn't anywhere near as picky about games.

Sincerely,
The Vault Dweller
 
I don't know why they kept making Army Men games, someone somewhere was buying them and no one understands him.
 
Daemon Vector.

...don't ask.

I also agree with whoever mentioned SS2 - while not a bad game, it was so far inferior to the originals, in terms of both gameplay and story/humour, that I never really bothered to finish it. I am lucky to have borrowed it from a friend instead of buying it though.
 
^^^^^^

Damn, I kept thinking of System Shock 2 when you said SS2, so I was rather confused when you mentioned humor.

For me, well Fallout 3 CE.
Unfortunate the manual is in Dutch so its not sellable outside the Netherlands.
