Worst game you bought at $60?

[Gitty101]

Army of Two. Horrible graphics, shoddy controls, naff plot and poor cooperative aspects made this a waste of £50 (roughly translated into $60).

Traded it in not long after and pocketed £40 and The Orange Box. Net win methinks ^^

 

[rated pg]

Star Wars: The Force Unleashed. Learned my lesson in time for #2.

 

[niktzv]

Turok by far. Everything that can be wrong with a game made in the last 8 years is embodied in that game.

Fable 3 - Well I didn't buy it, but my girlfriend did for birthday/christmas. We fired it up and after a while, my tiredness got the better of me.. I fell asleep multiple times. She wasn't too happy about this I don't think. It happened another time she came round, and another time when I tried to play it alone. Played it again with her last week after not playing it for a long time, and this time we both fell asleep.

I don't know what it is, can't help it. I sometimes can't stay awake when grinding for long periods on korean MMOs, and I've fallen asleep in some raids in WoW.. but this is weird.

Fable 3, such a huge let down.

All Points Bulletin, GTA style MMO. Company went bust shortly after the game was released.

anc[is]Far Cry 2. Not a terrible game, plenty of shooting and guns, but not worth $60. Only bought one game at full price after that.

Ditto. Not terrible, but there was even more repetition in the missions than Assassin's Creed, a game that I still loved.

I'd say the biggest waste of a full-priced game was with Spore. Seriously, that game was not worth the 3 years hype. I was so disappointed. Not to mention the horrible DRM they implemented. I was so pissed that I uninstalled the game and downloaded a less than legal version that didn't have the DRM.

Transformers war for cybertron......you can only play as Starscream in one mission....wtf

 

[NinjaTigerXIII]

Dragon Age: Origins on the PS3, I knew I should of bought it for PC

 

[beema]

I don't think I've ever paid $60 for a game.

suckers

CoD: Black Ops

Got bored within 2 weeks.

 

[inkheart_artist]

Fallout New Vegas. First and last time I got sucked up in hype. That buggy mess wasn't worth more then 20 bucks and I bought the special edition. Fuck...

 

[Legion IV]

Orange box. Never been so angrey with my purchase ever in my entire life. I still get angrey when i open my closet and find it in the corner, hate hate HATE.

 

[WOPR]

We all have things that we regret. For some of us its that we let that special girl get away from us. For others its that they forgot to punch your little brother when he stole the last cookie, and others regret spending all there money on steam sales. This thread is for those who regret spending 60 of there hard earned dollars on a game that ended up being crap.

For me FF13 will always be this game. It is the embodyment of horrible game design. Looked nice though..

SimCity Creator

my reaction

**first 10 minutes**
HAHAHAHAHA!! I'M A FREAKING WREAKING BALL ROLLING OVER EVERYTHING!!

**rest of gameplay**
...so bored... so full of hate at the "My Sims"... let's fly around the future city... again...

Orange box. Never been so angrey with my purchase ever in my entire life. I still get angrey when i open my closet and find it in the corner, hate hate HATE.

He said $60 purchase dude

Orange box is $30... and it's 6 games (I count Lost Coast!)

so it's like 6, $5 purchases

 

[FinalHeart95]

Probably Overlord 2. Not particularly bad, just extraordinarily boring.

 

[Jyggalag]

I suppose if you include the extra hardware exclusive to the game, Rockband 3. A drum set and guitar along with the game. The drum can't even sync properly because the sound is delayed, not early. You can adjust it from 0+ but I need to go below 0. The game only had a very small handful of songs I actually listen to, so that had to be the biggest waste of money someone else has ever spent on me. That's right. The ugly Christmas sweater stereotype is of greater value.

Singularity...
It had an... Awkward to say the least story line...
Defiantly would have been worth it if the MP actually had people playing on it... your god(s) forbid.

Call Of Duty 5, 6, and 7
I buy them because i want them, than regret it two weeks later...

and i already know i will buy Cod 8 T_T damn i am weak

 

[Wolfwind]

Borderlands.

I know a lot of people like it, and to each their own, but it got boring REAL fast for me.

Sucks cause I usually never buy games at launch and wait for them to drop in price, UNLESS they're co-op, in which case I get them when my friends get them. Such was the case with Borderlands.

Two Worlds 1. Really wanted a new RPG and I tried to convince myself it wasn't utter shit but I eventually had to realize that it was fucking awful.

*sigh*... had nice graphics though
