Worst game PURCHASE you ever made.

[AzureRaven]

Bulletstorm. I paid $60 for a game that had MAYBE 20-30 worth of content.

 

[LobsterFeng]

The Force Unleashed 2, easily. Figured there was no way they could screw a sequel up, I mean all they needed to do was make it a little longer right?...right?

 

[Brikson]

Excitebike 64. So should have rented or tried it first.

 

[neonsword13-ops]

Fable 3, oh how you dissapointed me.

With your limited character interaction and terrible leveling up system, you will always have a place in my heart as the worst game I ever payed money for.

 

[SoulSalmon]

I guess it'd be Rock Band, never got to play it because I found out after buying it that Guitar Hero guitars didn't work.
The Rock Band guitar I bought later didn't work either >.>

And now I play Thirdstyle so I don't have to worry about plastic guitar compatibility 8D

 

[Woodsey]

Medieval 2 Total War on Steam. The Steam version doesn't support mods, which are the best part of the game.

I... what? Why would they disable mods for the Steam version? I've never heard that before.

OT: Two Worlds. Woe is me.

 

[AlternatePFG]

PC version of Black Ops. 60$ down the drain. Despite multiple patches, the game is still buggy and runs terribly. It's honestly a pretty good game, played the 360 version at my friends house and enjoyed it. The PC version is just a terrible port however.

 

[HusaneFatal]

Brink... I have a pretty damn good internet but whenever I tried to play with friends it was just a major lagfest pissing me off. Oh and the single player completely sucked since the bots are USELESS.

 

[hensethe1]

Brink.. Definitely Brink.

Or Terraria.. I did a impulsive purchase of Terraria one day becase I was bored, and I saw it was the most popular on steam. Little did I know that when I got in-game I couldn't help but think that it is somewhat similar of this game every man and his fucking dog are so hysterical about now a days, motherfucking _minecraft_

 

[Krinku]

Erm...Resonance of Fate(Hey I liked it just the characters were bland and stayed the same the whole story, oh story was ERGH. Battle system amazed me though).

 

[Scrumpys]

Fifa 64 for £40+... what was I thinking!?

That's nowhere near the worst purchase in the family though, my normally savvy father got brainwashed into buying a CDi. I don't think there's a worse possible game console purchase than that, even the brain melting Virtual Boy is at least worth something as a collector's item.

YOU HAVE A CDI THAT'S EPIC

 

[Warlord211]

Brink... I have a pretty damn good internet but whenever I tried to play with friends it was just a major lagfest pissing me off. Oh and the single player completely sucked since the bots are USELESS.

Final Fantasy 13

I hesitate to even call it a game to be fair.

Single worst thing Square Enix have ever done.

WRONG! You forget FFX-2.

Ok, worst purchase for me: Brink.

I FUCKING HATE THAT GAME! INFURIATING! BORING! NO ONE PLAYS! ACHIEVEMENTS ARE A *****!

RAAAAAWR!

Brink was fucking terrible. I was convinced it was going to be good, I even pre-ordered it. I played 20 minutes of single player and wanted to throw the fucking disc out of my window. Seriously, how fucking hard is it to make a decent single player.

 

[Jaime_Wolf]

Hunted: The Demon's Forge.

I had heard that it was a decent game with great co-op. I was lied to.

I feel like I should have been paid for playing the first couple of hours for it. It hurts my soul every time I see it in the list of my Steam games.

 

[Jaime_Wolf]

Brink.. Definitely Brink.

Or Terraria.. I did a impulsive purchase of Terraria one day becase I was bored, and I saw it was the most popular on steam. Little did I know that when I got in-game I couldn't help but think that it is somewhat similar of this game every man and his fucking dog are so hysterical about now a days, motherfucking _minecraft_

But...but...both Terraria and Minecraft are wonderful, inventive, polished (well, more Terraria than Minecraft for that one), and fun!

 

[Kungfu_Teddybear]

Sacred 2 I bought of Steam....can't even get the damn game to work, it just crashes whenever it starts up because its incompatible with ATI cards or something. Pathetic.

Don't worry, you're not missing out on anything. I have it for the Xbox, it's a shit game.

OT: Too Human hands down.

 

[Drew Richard]

E.T.
Nothing can be worse than that....

 

[Pyramid Head]

Weirdly aside from one purchase during the N64 era i regret, i never found myself in a situation where i paid full price for a game i totally hated. Halo Reach would be the closest example to the worst purchase since you did mention the over 40 euros mark, but honestly i kind of liked Reach when held against the other shooters released that year. But in the end, i don't have that much disposable income and unless it's a game i badly want, don't grab it unless i can do so for $35 or less.

But my worst gaming purchase...
I'd have to say Flower, Rain, and Sun. I seriously didn't get past the first level before dropping it because i couldn't skip a fucking cinematic that was adding nothing to the story but dragging on and on.

 

[monkey-skitz 91]

So what does the escapist regret spending their hard-earned cash on?

theres a game on XBLA called avatar drop which is really fun and has multiplayer, so me nad my mates over XBL bought it for giggles to see what it was like.......only to find that the "multiplayer" is two controllers one console and not xbox live multiplayer. it was 400 points too, so we were all a bit put out to say the least.
