Most shameful game purchase

[Midlife Sperglord]

Every gamer has at least one. What is yours?

For me, it was Avatar - The Burning Earth on the 360. 1,000 gamerscore for mashing the B button 50 times in a row. I wasted $15 and 5 minutes of my time out for unimpressive achievements.

I bought the game Dark for $7.

 

[Diabeetus]

I bought Surgeon Simulator. It was not as fun as PewDiePie made it out to be. Very mediocre, don't buy it.

Poker chips at an indian casino.

No man's sky, pre ordered and everything. Haven't pre ordered a game since.

 

[Tootsie Bear]

I don't recall the title of the game but it was a Mary-Kate and Ashley video game for the PlayStation. In my defense it was only a $1 at the flea market.

... Chaos Wars.

 

[Begemot]

I bought the game Dark for $7.

I think I paid around the same ballpark figure for that on steam.....

What about a pre-emptive bad buy? I might buy Unearthed-tales of ibn bututa on steam even though I know it's going to be abject trash.

some trash multigame thing on steam called ES Games made by a guy who became some jesus freak out of nowhere

started off free and gave you achievements just for opening it, then added two new ones and made it paid, spent £0.79 to 100% again (:autism. never bothering with cheapo achievements again because of that.

I bought Spore the day it came out. I also bought the creature creator for $10 the day it came out.

Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus, that game was god awful and I returned it within a day.

 

[Duncan Hills Coffee]

I purchased Devil May Cry 2, thinking it couldn't possibly be as bad as everyone said it was.

It was.

 

[Tramadol]

I bought Surgeon Simulator. It was not as fun as PewDiePie made it out to be. Very mediocre, don't buy it.

I had fun with it and beat it like 3 times (each time you beat the game you unlock a new mode) . granted it was the Anniversary edition and it was only 7 bucks

 

[JSGOTI]

Evolve. And the season pass. As far as had been advertised, it was supposed to be the seasons content as it came out. But no, the season pass was only for COSMETICS. And then the game tanked so it didnt matter anyway.

 

[Plunkie]

Even after I’d seen the red flags about the graphics and gameplay, I still bought Diablo 3. Christ, what a shitshow

 

[Francis E. Dec Esc.]

Black and White. This was before Peter Molyneux was a laughingstock.

 

[opy702]

Two words: Bad. Rats.

 

[Boxy Brown]

I think Final Fantasy 13 is the only game I've regretted purchasing.

 

[ES 148]

Halo: Combat Evolved
