Games you've bought that turned out to be really bad

[kiloy]

Aliens Colonial Marines

[SuperPlamz]

GTA 4. While it was not an irredeemably shitty mess, I really wasn't expecting it to so bare compared to previous games and it had [B]major[/B] issues with freezing, although that may have just been my shitty Xbox. I stopped enjoying it about half way through and decided to finish Vice City instead.

[QUOTE=Golgo 13;43920539]Dark Souls

Not for the "hnng so casual" reason, I played and completed it, but it just wasn't appealing to me.[/QUOTE]

idk the melee combat is incredibly enjoyable and responsive, how could someone not enjoy the only swords game where the swords have weight to them

[BrandoJack]

Most of the games I bought because I had a gift card, or they were on a super cheap discount and I'd figure I'd try them out.
Super Paper Mario
De Blob 2
VVVVVV

I also bought Tony Hawk's HD, and I only disliked it up until I got a new computer that could actually run it. Now it's not [i]that bad,[/i] but it could've been better.

[Saza]

assassin's creed 3 for sure

From Dust was overhyped as hell

[lintz]

I'd say Shadow the Hedgehog because I was 12 and had no fucking clue.

[FunnyStarRunner]

Dead Rising 2, only because I could never even play the game thanks to GFWL.

And King of Kings for the NES. First time I legitimately raged over a video game.

[IMG]http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/0/03/BlackSite_Area_51_cover.jpg[/IMG]

[Blazedol]

The Witcher 1.

[Krogag]

Rust

[CPaper]

Dead Island

[The mouse]

Chivalry: Medieval Warfare, the game is horribly optimised with clunky controls and a fucking toxic elitist community compounded with devs that don't give a shit about their player base.

[Hardpoint Nomad]

18 Wheels of Steel: American Long Haul

[Griffalo]

Call of Duty MW3

[marden]

Mass Effect 3 - Luckily I waited and got it fr cheap and I prepared for the letdown.
Amnesia: A Machine For Pigs - Totally jumped on the name before doing research
The last is case of gameplay being too old - The first three Tomb Raiders. I tried them but I just couldn't get past the controls. Maybe I'll give them another spin someday.

Biggest letdown in my life.[/QUOTE]

2008 was like the first big disappointment in my life, as far as purchases go. It actually killed my interest for open world games for quite a bit, until Fallout 3 came along.

[ROFLBURGER]

Overgrowth
Yes I know it's in early Alpha/Beta/Omega, but I thought it would be much better
