dear lord. I cant play that game seriously, i always do 360 QWIK SCONES.also the tutorial is shit [QUOTE=Liem;34984184]I had 52$ I went to Walmart cause I wanted a game and EBgames was closed I saw Sniper Ghost Warrior So I told the cashier I wanted it Now as he was taking it out of the case I saw Deus Ex HR for the same price. However by now if I told him to put it back and get DEHR I would lose my pride, So I sucked it up and let him ring in the game, If anyone learns from my mistakes. DON'T BUY GHOST WARRIOR[/QUOTE]
Spore (and the fucking Expansion) World of Warcraft / Payments (money wasted) Overlord II (dull) Civilization V (just didn't spark like Civ 3 did) Morrowind GOTY (i pretended to like this game, i actually cannot get into it due to the visual / lack of voice acting constraints)
only good thing abot spore was the cell age

I guess most Fpers start off this way.

[QUOTE=errington07;12960347]Oh and farcry 2 was boring as hell also.[/QUOTE] get sick and die. That ruined the game for me.
[QUOTE=Broguts;35117907]Spore was so overhyped, and it turns out it wasn't a game, more of a shitty toy.[/QUOTE] [sp]I actually enjoyed SPORE a ton, same with the expansion, and I also loved Darkspore[/sp] I kinda regret getting Saint's Row: The Third on the console. Plot felt really ham-fisted and because it's on a console I can't mod it.

Saint Row: The Third on console. It was enjoyable but way too short and too linear. It has 0% replay value and Saints Row 2 was just better in my opinion.
RAGE. This game was cool, until I figured you have to drive to go EVERYWHERE. This wouldnt be bad if it were not for a few things. Driving to get places is OK. Like in GTA and Saints Row. But whenever you HAVE to compete in bullshit races to get a different currency in which to buy vehicle upgrades with, then its fuckin bullshit. Also when you are driving places, every 5 seconds there are some assholes trying to kill you. Then ones with rocket launchers are the worst because it is next to IMPOSSIBLE to outrun these monstrosities. I got to the second disc and got buttfucked on the first enemy car I drove across because I did not think upgrading my car was a big deal. Also 75% of the guns are useless and so are the crafting items. The missions are very linear and pose no real challenge. 60 dollars down the drain
Team Fortress 2 how it is now. I guess I can count this since I bought it with the Orange Box. It was epic then it went crap when they added hats a trading system and loads of bull shit that made the game bloated. Back when it was simple to play it was fun. But now it just meh. To much has changed and in my opinion for the worse. I will miss the classic Team Fortress 2.

The game was great on console , it's the PC version that is probably the second worst thing after GTA4 PC as it first released.

Silent Hill: Downpour. Oh my god Silent Hill: Downpour.
Battlefield 3
[QUOTE=CanadianBill;35104165]Killing Floor[/QUOTE] Explain this bullshit
[QUOTE=Demon!;35125728]Silent Hill: Downpour. Oh my god Silent Hill: Downpour.[/QUOTE] I preordered it, without spoiling anything, what was so bad?
Silent Hill: Homecoming. It was ok, just not worth the $40 I paid or the Silent Hill title.The first three games were great but every one after 3 has been a hit or miss for me. Gotham City Imposters. Only because it's matchmaking only, not because it's bad. I haven't been able to actually play because of it. It just won't find any matches for me. I haven't got to try if because of that.
[QUOTE=Selek;35126049]I preordered it, without spoiling anything, what was so bad?[/QUOTE] The combat is so awkward and sluggish, the collision detection in the game is soooooooo buggy, I've gotten stuck on so many things I seriously thought was impossible, and the first enemy you encounter is seriously the most generic one yet since Team Silent stopped working on the games. I'm doing a playthrough of it with commentary, and it's pretty painful. Gotham City Impostors was pretty fun when I played the closed beta of it on the PC a while back, but it definitely has problems.
Hitman: Codename 47 The controls fucking suck more than a Thai prostitute. The AI will shoot at you when you do the slightest false move. At least Blood Money was fun.
I would have to say a couple of indie bundles. I just didn't really enjoy the game I got out of them. Some people could say that with the time I played some of the games that I got, I got the value of what I payed, but when you don't enjoy the time you play, does it really count in the value? I hope my post made sense, because I have a feeling I said things badly.
sniper ghost was a tad sterile... gfx had a bit to do with it but it felt like a game from 1999 modernised to say 2004 level gfx and released in 2009? far cry 2, for all its hype was really grindy and the storyline, esp. the ending is laughable ok here we go... here's a big one forza 4 ok the cars, gfx, handling is obviously top notch but spend some money on tracks or tracks dlcs? how grindy is it!
Portal 2 on release date. Was fun, but definitely not worth 50 dollars or whatever it was.
[QUOTE=TalonAran;35115472]Print screen is the key for jumping off of ropes. I'll just leave it at that.[/QUOTE] And here I was thinking Batman Forever on the SNES took that award...

Now, do I like the 45° turn it took with hats? It's something different. Of course it deviates the game into a dumb trading simulator, but at least we get to visually differentiate each enemmy.
[QUOTE=Sir Whoopsalot;35127254]And here I was thinking Batman Forever on the SNES took that award...[/QUOTE] Is that the one where you had to press an awkward button to go down a level? I got stuck on one part and eventually had to Google the controls.
Yeah, R and down, at least on the Super NES.
Duke Nukem Forever - I didn't honestly as hate it as much as a lot of people do, but I simply feel it wasn't worth $60 at all. I'd have preferred waiting for a price decrease to around $15. Terraria - Good game, but I just couldn't get into it.
