Games you wish you HADN'T bought...

1) Bad Company. "Sweet, destructable environments!" "Well, they're not truly destructable, just scripted destructable. Also, four bullets to the foot will kill you, as well as an airstrike aimed a mile away. Have a nice day!"
2)Yug-i-oh: Duel of the Roses. Even my eleven year old (at the time) brain hated the game. I played the tutorial longer than the game. Also, the tutorial was an hour long, all of it boring.
3)Sins of a Solar Empire. Even on the fastest mode, having to get your ships from one side of your empire to another takes about ten minutes. I'll pass.
4)Icewind Dale 2. Seemed like a really fun and immersive game. I just couldn't get into it.

To continue with my list:
Katamari Damacy- Am I the only one who thinks this game is HARD?? I would have loved this game so much more if there was no time limit, or if they gave you much more time for each level. I realize that this would get rid of the challenge, but this kind of game really shouldn't be too challenging in the first place. Anyways, I couldn't finish the single player after level 8 or so because there just wasn't enough time. The controls were clumsy and frustrating, too.
Rainbow Six Lockdown- The game was pretty good overall, but the only bad thing was the sniper portions. One part was so hard that I couldn't even finish the game. I'm sure that many other people could finish it though, since I'm not that great at FPS.
Astonishia Story- Graphics were bad, it was too short, too easy, and there was no replay value. An extremely mediocre RPG.
Odama- One of the most frustrating games I've ever played. It was so hard, I couldn't get past the third level. One of the worst parts was the terrible voice command. It came with a foam microphone to hook up to your Gamecube controller and you had to shout commands in it, like "Advance" or "Move forward" but half the time, they didn't even work. You had to make sure no one else was around, unless you wanted to look like a complete moron yelling into a fake microphone. I got so frustrated, I kept shouting "GET OUT OF THE WAY YOU F*CKING MORONS!" and threw my controller at the wall.

Alone in the Dark for the Wii, what the hell was I thinking?
Perfect Dark Zero, man that was a dissapointment, especially to a PD fan
Resident Evil Outbreak File #2, Why the hell did they shut down internet play?
Shadowrun, poorly made Counter Strike clone with magic and classes barely based off of the characters from the old school version
need For Speed Carbon on the Wii, Wgimmickmote controls. stupid and boring.
Halo 3 *Hides in fanboy bunker*

I didnt mind dark sector to much, i didnt pay atention to teh story as it made no sense and since i had trouble with gears of war on insane at the time it was a decent enough copy...babyblues post=9.59143.620152 said:

Killer7. I know some people just love this game, but I just don't get it. Now I can't even trade it in because every gaming store has 18 copies that they can't get rid of either.
I dont play games that much but i have to say i dont regret buying any games, well i would regret buying mass effect but it only cost my £17 which is about $34, maybe thats too much i dunno, i thought it was ok for the money i paid, i definetly wouldnt pay 40-50 for it
