My whole PS3 collection. They're all <$10 and EB Games is literally twelve and a half steps from the checkout I stand at all day. I don't play a single one, the PS3 controller feels weird
The majority of shit I buy.
Tree Of Life The fact that it's an early access survival game by Korean developer and it had a single microtransaction at launch should have been enough of a warning, but I bought it anyway. I even did a sentence and a half review for a promo they had where submitting a review got you said microtransaction for free. The game is incredibly lacking in stuff to do. You basically harvest materials and at night protect built structures from endlessly respawning monsters. In typical Korean game fashion, they now sell things for real money that render the in game crafted versions semi pointless. Like infinite use mounts versus how the hard to make in game mount has 5 uses, or indestructible high volume item bags versus crafted ones have less space and being the first thing to take damage.
Watch_Dogs. Biggest waste of 60 bones ever.
Literally <1 hour after opening my first bank account at 10 I bought a [URL="https://s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/originals/87/c5/f6/87c5f645874c62deba60b006357cda08.jpg"]Thunder Tumbler[/URL] from some college kids selling them around town. They told me it would do sick flips if I drove it down the stairs. It broke.
Probably my car. All I had to do was wait one more year, and then I would have had the licence and the money to buy my realistic dream car.
I'll sometimes buy packs of Yu-Gi-Oh cards even though I haven't played the game in 2 years and I almost always get shit from the packs.
[QUOTE=Snausages;51464002]DNF[/QUOTE] I bought the Balls of Steel edition preorder for my birthday. Ha ha.
Aliens Colonial Marines.
A protein bar.
I bought an N64 at a yard sale for $65. It came with a bunch of games and stuff. I was dumb at the time and was it was really hot outside. Still feel like a fucking idiot. Should've known the thing wasn't gonna work. The bearded bastard that sold it to me said that it worked to. It sucks because I got Turok and Perfect Dark along with it so I can't even play those. Learn from me, don't but any electronics at a yard sale. Especially consoles.
I own a $12 talking Donald Trump pen with 8 different voice lines. [editline]a[/editline] The head is actually really well sculpted though and it's a sturdy pen so I can't really be too mad. [editline]2nd December 2016[/editline] I also saw Assassin's Creed 3 for $5 at Gamestop once and I grabbed it even though I hadn't finished 2 yet and to this day I'm not done with Brotherhood and the game's about to go free on Uplay later this month.
My hipster friend talked me into buying a vape when we were out drinking once, now it is a stupid looking dust collector on my shelf. Also never drink and ebay, that is how I ended up with a heathkit multimeter with a nixie tube display, an old tube radio console (that sort of works) and an 80's Hitachi oscilloscope (which I have actually used multiple times).
Just bought flowers for a girl I like. [sp]It probably will not work out.[/sp]
[QUOTE=varg666;51464858]Aliens Colonial Marines.[/QUOTE] Paid full price for mine at launch. A grim reminder on the dangers of preodering.
I'm mixed between a £500 plushie or a certain rubber object, guess both apply?

I'm guessing some mother got angry at her children and decided to cut the cables or something. Thankfully the cables were there too and a simple electric tape fixed the thing. Back to topic, I bought an Airsoft M16, a USMC replica kit, along with helmet, goggles, molle vest and shit like that and still haven't played a single game of airsoft. Also have a vespa 4 years ago and I still haven't got the license to ride it legally. Also bought a $700 road bike and only ridden it twice because 99% of the time I'm just rocking my mountain bike and another road bike. Also bought a bmx which I never used. Also have a midi keyboard (to be fair that was a gift) and a Novation Launchpad which sits very much unused. I've donated it to my local maker community and it still sits there unused.
Stop being a chairsofter and hit the field you will start not regretting your purchase [editline]3rd December 2016[/editline] Also which brand is that m16
I bought the PC version of the Fallout 4 Pipboy Edition at launch despite not having a pc. I just played it this August on my brother's pc. It was so disappointing, the game, the shitty Pipboy itself. The stand came broken too. The shittiest thing is that I really had to fight gamestop for it because of them doing dumbshit and I spent a week sorting it out :suicide: :suicide: :suicide: :suicide:
A full set of reproduction Roman Armour...
A 125cc motorcycle, I never ended up getting a license for it
i bought GTAV for PS4 [sp]then i realized i don't have a PS4[/sp]
I bought The Sims 3 from G2A for very cheap! Hilarious game.

A 2016 MacBook Pro... And a usb type C to A adapter [t]https://i.imgur.com/4oCxQKT.jpg[/t]
I've bought multiple USB flash drives that I've really never had any use for
an airbrush for like 300 dollars, i saw a video of a dude painting with it and i was sold! never used it once
[QUOTE=Snausages;51464002]DNF[/QUOTE] Haha, beat you! [sp]I bought it too, went back and upgraded to the pre-order package they couldn't sell out...[/sp] ... :(
[QUOTE=helifreak;51466886]I have like 3 or 4 of these. [t]https://pbs.twimg.com/media/B1GOwSfCYAEjLpQ.png[/t][/QUOTE] uhh... where can you buy this? asking for a friend of course.
[QUOTE=Darth Ninja;51470527]uhh... where can you buy this? asking for a friend of course.[/QUOTE] I got mine from [URL="https://teespring.com/twitch/stupidbird"]teespring[/URL] but the campaign is over and it seems that you have to go with [URL="http://www.designbyhumans.com/shop/t-shirt/men/stupidbird/104532/"]designbyhumans[/URL] for twice the price.
