Worst game you bought at $60?

[captainaweshum]

Two Worlds.

Everyone kept saying it was the Oblivion killer and I didn't have the net at the time.

 

[vingtcinq]

Medal of Honor. Ugh.

 

[Evilbunny]

Brutal Legend wasn't very good.

 

[Nooneishome]

Guitar Hero Metallica

Ok well my friend bought it and played it once now i have it but i still feel the pain

 

[Nocola]

For me it's a two way shit storm tie, Black Ops on PC - it's so broken... Where do I even begin? And Medal of Honor 2010. It's just a TERRIBLE game, rushed, brimming with cliched game mechanics and it brings absolutely nothing new to an already over crowded genre.

You can now all slap for me for my bad decisions.

Fallout 3 was the last game I bought at full price, shortly after release.

I finally forced myself through the awful opening. I finally send 'screw it' to VATS and decided to aim for myself like it was a proper FPS.

Im assuming by "decided to aim for myself like it was a proper FPS" you mean "decided to aim for myself like it was an FPS" because fallout is an RPG. just worth thinking about.

Yeah, I could have chosen my words more carefully, but... Deus Ex is (arguably) another RPG with a FPS perspective, and you can actually shoot in that (albeit with dubious accuracy until you level up a bit) Manual aiming in FO3 is downright abominable, so you end up having to use VATS simply to compensate for that. It's also incredibly anti-immersive - essentially pausing the game and flooding the screen with numbers every single time you fire a weapon - which is a shame given how much effort was put into the atmosphere of the capitol wasteland.

Red Dead Redemption
once u had done everything i found it boring and repetative

 

[Strixvaliano]

I believe I am about to win this thread; Terminator Salvation on the PS3... if you played it, you will KNOW what I mean. So bad. So very very bad.

Turok: Evolution (Xbox)
Blade II (Xbox)

Absolutely horrible purchases but I was dying to play some games and nothing else was out. Worst part was I got them both on the same day. Man did I feel ripped off when I tried those games out.

 

[Canid117]

Dynasty Warriors Gundam.


I hadn't been familiar with the Dynasty Warriors series until then and I have hated it with a passion since.

 

[Vault boy Eddie]

Black Ops PC. Broken piece of shit, the singleplayer is decent, but it's so fucking glitchy in multiplayer that it's terrible.

This. Paying an extra 10 bucks for a game I couldn't play the first month and a half due to the horrible state it launched in is not my idea of keeping the customer happy.

 

[Nitroklop]

I didn't quite spring for 60, but I bought "The Conduit" for the full price of 50. I kinda regret doing that, it wasn't all THAT great.

 

[MetallicaRulez0]

A few that immediately spring to mind.

Perfect Dark Zero
Quake 4
Crackdown
Fallout 3 GOTY Edition
Halo Wars
DBZ Burst Limit
CoD Black Ops

I'm sure I'll catch a lot of hell for putting FO3 in that list, but I literally couldn't play it beyond a few hours, it was just too boring.

 

[monkey_man]

Black Ops, everyone kept twlling me to buy it, so i did. played it about 20 hours ( which is not much for me) and stopped.
Or Modnation racers. Sold it to a friend of mine after I've played it like 20-30 hours or so.
And saints row 2 for PC. the bloody game laggs so much I had to make everything look like a grey blob.
AND IT KEPT LAGGING.
so I abandoned it after 10 minutes of play. I bought it for 5 euros at steam sales, so no harm done.

 

[onewheeled]

Modern Warfare 2. Yeah, I got my money's worth and something like 60 hours of enjoyment/rage, but it's the one and only game I've bought at $60, and just like everybody else, it's become one of my least favorite games of all time.

Well, except for Spec Ops. If they made a game with just Spec Ops sorta stuff, then I'd be very, very happy.

 

[A Weakgeek]

Fable 3, well I didin't actually pay for it, it was a gift. That makes it even more frustraiting since Its not my money going to waste, its someones who is dear to me.

 

[dancinginfernal]

Resident Evil 5.

It wasn't horrible but...eh.

 

[TheYellowCellPhone]

I'd say MAG.

The biggest selling, the huge 128 vs 128 matches, is also its biggest flaw: games take too long to start, when everyone (inevitably) ragequits when they lose you're screwed over, there's way too many snipers and campers, and

THE

FUCKING

GRENADE

SPAM.

 

[gritch]

I'd have to say the worst game I've spent the full $60 on was Two Worlds. I played the thing for a few hours before deciding the terrible graphics, voice acting, and combat weren't worth my time. But at least my younger brother got some sort of enjoyment out of it somehow...

 

[breadlord]

I'd have to say Spore, Assassin's Creed, and Fallout 3.

 

[Triaed]

None. I have never paid full price for any game.
...As a matter of fact, except for groceries, I rarely pay full price for anything.
