Topic: Which game do you REGRET buying the most?

@RogerRoger No. Won't waste any more time on it. Patches can't patch over insanely slow and dull collect and craft gameplay.

Lakers vs Celtics and the NBA Playoffs on Megadrive circa 1991. I read a review in a magazine, the screenshots looked amazing and it got a solid 8 or 9 out of 10. Obviously no video footage or demos back then. So I mail ordered it on import from the US for over £40. After a few weeks it arrived and it was just awful.
Slow slow gameplay, this terrible music played all game, and if you wanted to play in the playoffs you had to play full 12 minute quarters. And you couldn’t save progress! I remember in a full playoff game I scored 250 points with Michael Jordan.
Still annoyed about it! £40 was a lot back then!!
There were actually some really good sports game back then too, I had Madden and EA Ice Hockey.

I definitely didn't get £30 worth of value out of "Gotham Knights". I get the distinct impression that it started out as a "GaaS" type project that got stripped back after the Crystal Dynamics "Avengers" debacle. It's a weird game that's neither froggy nor fowl (the RPG/loot system could've been deleted to the detriment of nothing) and the sheer "meh" of it all started doing my head in after about 7 or 8 hours. Oh well - at least I didn't pay £60+ for it.

There was a Wolfenstein game that came out back in the 2000’s for ps3 and Xbox 360. I regret paying full price for that one for sure

@MB81 haha I remember queuing up with my mum at Toys'R'Us around that time to get Sonic the Hedgehog for mega Drive and that was £45! MADNESS.

Brink on PS3, wow what a stinker that was.
Paid full price and bought day one, got caught up in the hype and roped in by friends.
Thankfully I traded it in days later so didn't lose much.

@RogerRoger agreed d, wasn’t too terrible in its own right…just can’t really think of anything else I’ve spent 60 on and been upset after playing.

Now that I think about it more, I also paid full price for DC Universe Online when that released on ps3…only for it to end up f2p. That’s kinda disappointing too

@BowTiesAreCool Games were a lot expensive even 10 years ago. I saw a image yesterday which showed Toys'R'Us were selling Doom and Mario Kart for 65 dollars each.

I haven’t really regretted any games I’ve bought full price recently. But in general, Dying Light 2 was not my cup of tea. Bought it half off months ago to scratch my zombie/apocalypse itch. Unfortunately, I did not like it. Felt too generic and crowded. I’m sure it got better but after 5 to 8 hours, I dropped it
