Default Games That You Wish You Never Wasted Money On
What computer games have people brought over the years that they really wish they hadn't wasted money on.


I remember when I was younger I had enough money for Tekken 3, I'd saved so hard for it.

But my younger sister wanted Spice World (shudders*) the stupid dancing spice girl game, and cried.


I felt sorry for her, so brought it! My god I wish I hadn't!

I'd given up Tekken 3 for something so pointless and utter tripe.

Spice World was SO fun to waste time on hahahaha.

I've never had that issue, I only ever buy games that I know I'll like, and if I'm unsure, I'll do some research into it, or just wait for it to be on sale/preowned cheap.

Only ever bought the Sims, I don't have a PS, Xbox or any of that jazz.
I'd say the Sims original, I got the Sims2 not long after.

Lol I liked that game. I think the most recent dissapointing game I brought was SSX Blur for the Wii. A completely wretched game with an absolutely demonic control scheme.

I bought Parappa the Rapper for the Psp once because I had fond memories of it but I only played it once afterwoods because i just couldn't do it.

I like 99% of the games I buy though.

Mass Effect-Impossible to play.
Skate-Boring
Tomb Raider Legend or something it was called. Utter rubbish.
The Godfather-I can't complete it.

I traded most of them into Gamestop and got less than a euro

The game that I regretted buying the most was FIFA Soccer on the N64. Played it for 10 minutes then promptly returned it to the store for a refund.

The only game that I've bought recently that I regret is Super Streetfighter 2 The New Challengers on Wii VC. Wish i'd got SF2 Turbo instead.
