I'm pretty picky about the games I buy, so I only have one that stands out to me.
Tactics Ogre on the gba. I bought it thinking fuck yeah something like FF Tactics, but it disappointed on every level.
LittleBigPlanet, Assassin's Creed, FINAL FANTASY XI.![]()
SSBB
Fallout 3, Warhawk
Steambot Chronicles, I remember visiting my friend's cousin and I just wanted to buy something. Other than that, I can't believe I wasted money on Dirge of Cerberus and I couldn't stand Kingdom Hearts 2 after a while.
GTA 4: One day i'll pick it up again... w/will prolly only last for one sitting
Age of Conan: Biggest PoS game ever made
Few more but I can't think of em atm... those two are just fresh failures
Mario is Missing for the SNES.
It's a stupid carmen sandiego rip off.
Killer7 for PS2
I really loved No More Heroes so when I saw Killer7 for $20 bucks I thought I'd give it a try. I've heard the GCN version is better, but I can't attest to it. The game's loading times are ridiculous, the game itself moves at a snail's pace and the game tells you how to solve every puzzle when you encounter it. There's just no difficulty. The boss battles are hardly even battles at all.
Nothing recent comes to mind. My mum wants me to buy shovelware for her Wii for christmas/birthday because I know about the "Nintendos." But that's not for me.
One story comes to mind was back in Grade School. A friend of mine, if you could call him that(a bit of a moron that one) told me the Quest for Camelot(Quest for Camelot - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia) gameboy color game was good. Given that gameboy color was new and I had nothing for it except Zelda DX I believed it because he gave such a convincing testimony. I bought it despite never seeing the movie and thinking it was shitty just from the commercials. What the FUCK was I thinking? FUCK YOU DENNIS FUCK YOU
Madden '09. Last one I played was '02 and I loved it, probably spent about 2 hours total playing the new one. My first franchise game had a crash bug in the 3rd quarter, haven't touched it since.
Fallout 3. I love the game but I shouldn't have got it for the ps3.
Tabula Rasa.
Paid $80 for a shitty, and soon defunct, game.
MLB 2k9- Fuck the online forcing you to use the most retarded batting system ever
Madden 09- had it for 2 days and sold it, lol i thought it sucked.
Rock Band 2 set- This game tosses salad harder than any pornstar
Secret of the Stars.
Since then, I've learned to be a bit wiser about my purchases.
