What Are Your Game Buy Regrets?

Populous on Sega Master System.
I was a kid at that time,but they offered me at a cheap price this awful game and I bought it.
Generally I never regret another time,because from Psx 1 era and later,I never bought original game again,only pirate:)

bioshock sigh...

Admired the art style and graphics but not the gameplay, somehow giving unlimited re-spawns at a chamber only a few seconds from the location of your death removes any feeling of threat and in most places it kinda bored me to death and the ending of the story really pi**ed me off.

with all the hype I expected this game to be breathtaking...

Ahhh, Viva Pinata!!!!! Don't know what on earth possessed me to buy that....

off topic: i noticed a few ppl here that have disliked GTA4, despite the shear amount of detail. The damage detection/animation is superb as with the rag doll physics too *sigh* cud go on.....but i won't :D

Sonic and the Secret Rings. To be fair, it might be better if they had offered more control schemes, but as it is, it's nothing short of terrible in my opinion.

Mine was a spectrum platform game from a magazine where i had to type in the code myself it took nearly a week to input but when i was around 80% done the tape twisted so i started again it took 4 days and when i played it was one of the crappiest games i ever played and only ever played for 20 minutes

Final Fantasy 12, do Squenix not realise that we don't all love MMORPG's and they should just stick to making that game the way it used to be.
If FF 13 is the same then it will be the end of my love for the series, even X-2 was more enjoyable than 12 ffs!!

Mike..

Even though I was hyped like crazy for it, GTA IV. It feels like just a prettier incarnation of the previous entries. And for some reason I didn't like hearing the F-word almost every sentence. (it's not the word itself, just the gratuitous use) But most of all, the missions and stories bored me. Sure, the physics and damage you can do are amazing, but I still don't want to play it for some reason. I sound pretty lame don't I?

Then no game has ever been good. Thats a pretty bold statement to make, even indirectly.

Haze.

I didn't want it, I was intrigued and i wanted to support the few exclusives the PS3 had (yes call it fanboy-ism).

Worst game I have ever played, I sold it to a friend for the same price I payed.

San Andreas did, with its endless amounts to do, like flying planes, sky diving, random side missions and extensive story mode, but this just seems to lack, with only cluckin bells, Stevie's cars and pigeons to shoot. I wish I had rented it and completed the story.
