What game have you bought and after playing it, realised you have wasted your money?

[Zulash]

Dead Space - camera was terrible... storyline was retarded and predictable.

Spore - all I can say is whatafarkup... if you watch the original announcement video the game was supposed to be realistic.. not a kiddy, dreamworks production -.-

Age of Conan..... ghey.
Warhammer... ghey'er

 

[Zulash]

I really liked Ecco the Dolphin on the megadrive so I thought it wouldn't be so bad.

oh and omg what a blast from the past one of the first games i played on SEGA

Fifa 08 - Dosnt work, get a black screen on starting it. Even tried formatting, still nothing. Plus my pc it well within its recommended requirements.

That doesn't mean it's a bad game necessarily. But I see your point, you wasted your money.

The Sims (PC)
Need For Speed: Pro Street (PS2)
Splinter Cell (PC)
Age of Empires (PC)
Sunny Garcia Surfing (soo un realistic) ----Kelly Slater Pro Surfer on PC is 10000x better.

I have always wondered why some of the most popular titles had me so bored I wish I could turn the screen around and shoot at my head :/

Orange Box
Bioshock

Two I feel I wasted my money on :/ none of the half-life titles amazed me much..I was even more impressed with Unreal Gold than Half Life 1 and HL2 is OKish...Updates for the other shyte in Orange Box had me say rather save the bucks than worry. Bioshock is just weird and boring at the same time. I feel they could have added simple concepts to it to make it faaar more interesting.

dungeon keeper 2 ----after an awesome first one this sucked.
morrowind----- dont actually know how it was...it kept crashing, took it back to Iconnection, they made me play it there till it crashed...got money back though...
simon the sorcerer 3 ---- awful
Dungeon Siege ------ tried hard, failed at liking it even when self medication

 

[Le^stat]

Tribes 2
CSI
Tekken 5 (ps2)
Tiger Woods Golf 07 (ps2)

train simulator lol

thought it would be like transport tycoon.
who would have thought that they would make a game where all you do is adjust a lever and let go of the brakes

ROFL!

 

[f4ntom]

Spore - massive dissapointment
Star Wars Empire at War - biggest waste of money evar.

Only game I actually have really enjoyed recently is Guitar Hero. Nothing can beat completing a song on expert, it makes you feel godly. Can't wait for World Tour!

Frontlines fuel of car
cod 4
battlefield 2142
gta iv

luckily i have basically given up on pc games or the list could have been alot longer.

One thing I can say about MS flight sims, is that they are always at least 5 years ahead of their time.
5 years in terms of hardware requirements that is, you need a hellova PC to be able to run them with everything on the highest settings.

I bought it in '04, ran it on full graphics on a P4 2.8, 1GB RAM and a Ti4200 128MB...

Legendary. This game had a lot of potential but it is the biggest waste of R350. Damn impulse buying...
