Lost Planet. I paid $60 for it and the game was great but I beat in under 3 hours and was pissed find that's all there is. It was waaay to short and had no replay value at all.
It's not supposed to be a horror game. Just have a atmospere of depression and hopelessness.Krantos said:

OT: Oblivion for the PC. I played it on the console and wanted to try out all the nifty mods.
Unfortunately, none of the PCs I've had since I bought it could run it. The PC I'll build soon should remedy that.
Any movie tie-in ever. I learned my lesson after some LOTR and Transformers games for PS2. I got them cheap at least.
THANK YOU!! Finally someone else who hates that crap! I found it to just be a boring brown shooter game with absolutly no story and if it was any more linear then it would be a wooden tightrope infested with termites.archvile93 said:
OT: Halo series. Once again, boring and not even fun to play.
Borderlands.
Mostly because when I got it I was so far behind that my friends had already beaten it along with all the DLC and had moved on to something else, so I had to play the whole game in single player.
I tried matchmaking multiplayer, but that was worse than single player since all my allies wanted to do was speed through as fast as possible and leave me in the dust to fight off monsters that are far beyond my ability to kill.
Also, Dragon Age Origins on Xbox 360.
Not that I didn't enjoy it, I just wished I'd waited until I got a decent PC so I could run mods with it and play it like a tactical-rpg, and not have to play it like a action-rpg with slow combat.

I know I've been beaten to almost all of these, but hey:
Grand Theft Auto IV - They took out so many of the things I loved from San Andreas, and I couldn't stand the story or characters. Thank God I bought the Collector's Edition.
Modern Warfare 2 - I played multiplayer for a week or two before realizing that I was having absolutely no fun at all. Thank God I bought the Prestige Edition for a hundred billion dollars... ~_~
Final Fantasy XIII - Jesus Christ, thank you, Square, for giving me almost no control over any part of the game. I can't even choose my goddamn party members, or where we go, or ANYTHING? UGH.
King of Fighters XII - There's not even a story. Not even a cheesey KoF story...just a time attack mode. WHY?
Borderlands - The RPG part of the game just doesn't mix with the shooter part well enough for me. If I'm shooting someone in the head, I shouldn't be taking off only a sliver of health because my gun's stats are lower than the bad guy's level. It's still a bullet entering flesh. Anyway, I get the concept, it just doesn't work for me. Thank God I bought all the DLC when it was on sale...
Lost Planet - It looked so cool...how could blowing up huge bugs be bad?! Earth Defense Force 2017 was amazing, but Lost Planet's clunky controls just killed it for me.
Trauma Center: Under The Knife - Those last patients...my God. I have never been so close to snapping my DS in half. THANK YOU ATLUS.
