Sonic Secret Rings
building a PC for video games.

Brink.
Bought Transformers Dark of the Moon full price for some asinine reason I don't even remember
Factario.
Fallout 4 and the season pass.
They're crapping up my Steam library.
Pre-ordered Andromeda as a gift for someone else
>mfw they bought it themself the day I was gonna hand it over
battleborn at full price like a day before they cut the price because it was failing so hard
that or anything mass effect related after seeing that pitiful excuse of an ending to everything. not exactly 1 purchase but rather a series of purchases totaling hundreds of dollars
Minecraft.
K I L L I N G
F L O O R .
I got no clue why people like that shit.
This, and a wii u
>hundreds of dollars
So did you just buy a fuckton of merch/collectible stuff?
towns
Spore. Such a fucking let down.
Oh man I hate it.
why would you pre-order trash for somebody
Fucking meme sluts. Stop posting that shit.
You think that's bad? I bought rise of lyric day one. I've never regretted a purchase that much before. It still hurts
ztd. should've just kept playing the early cia.
>Play a shit ton of TF2
>Buy 400 dollars worth of Keys with in a year
>Not a single Unusual Unboxed
Until I modded my 3DS, that was up there as the worst purchase ever since I got it early 2012, there was literally nothing but REvelations and Mario 3D Land to play on it, and eventually the 3DS XL came out. But owning this console is suffering, there's some good exclusives locked to it on a gimmicky controller with a poor battery life, and eventually they stopped giving a fuck when they dropped the ball on releases like Animal Crossing Amiibo Parade despite hinting it with Mario Kart 8 DLC and the Animal Crossing Wii U plaza.
Xbox One
Sticker star
well each game costs 60 dollars at launch including not including DLC or anything like that so I would say almost 300 dollars total just to get a kick in the balls at the very end. totally worth thanks bioware
I regret buying Fallout 3, even for 15 bucks. Overrated trash with a boring world.
NMS
I just wanted the little rover replica, but it wasn't little at all and doesn't fit in my display
$550 for a imported MGS:V themed Playstation 4 from Japan.
I gotta stop preordering shit and wait for reviews.
Tie between my Xbox One and my PS4. I use my Xboner daily for TV but haven't played a game on it that doesn't have Halo in the title. I play my PS4 for a week or two each year and it gathers dust the rest of the time.
He enjoys all things Mass Effect
Witcher 3 on sale for 30 dollars and an A320 Dingoo for I think it was a hundred, maybe hundred and fifty I forget it was like 5 years ago.
Wii music
$60
My own money. I was like 8, what can you say
dragon age 2
Huniepop. I wasn't sure I was expecting. It looked like shit, it was shit.
Sakura Spirit... Even more shit than Huniepop. Literal same faces and body swaps.
There are others, but those two are the biggest offenders.
Ghost Recon Wildlands
Black Ops 2 and Diablo 3 for $60 each
Over 300$ for in-game currency across multiple games.
Brink
What were you expecting out of Huniepop exactly? I'm really curious.
It was a dumb matching game with crude humor. I enjoyed it for what it was. Even if I'll always look back at it thinking "I can't fucking believe I let gamergate convince me to buy this goddamn game. And I really can't believe I spent like 10 hours on it."
No way. Proof?
I dont know what you were expecting.
D3 was a good investment whether you played or not.
I bought a pre owned wii just so I could play botw. Played about 10 hours before never touching that shit again
Guitar Hero: rock the 80s
:'(
>buy game that looks like shit
>it's shit
I'm surprised you were more than mildly disappointed.
This fucking thing.
I don't care if it was like $2 it was dogshit and it's the first time I've ever got buyers remorse that's vidya related after all these years.
MK9
Never liked arcade style fighting games much, but a friend really did and I thought I'd give it another shot and the characters looked fun.
First game I've ever wanted to resell right after having bought it. I can't stand the button inputs to execute moves in these things.
I'm not sure. It was on sale on humble bundle for like three bucks.I saw the videos of the cringe worthy dialogue and thought it'd be something like a so bad it's good thing, or hell, I dunno.
What I got was just so bad it's bad. It was worse than I expected it to be I guess.
I pre-ordered Dead Rising 2
The switch
I keep on forgetting that game exists. Worst PM by a longshot, its one of the few cases of a bad Nintendo published game.
Diablo 3
Most monotonous game ever.
Never let FUCKING Gamestop to influence my opinions.
A Playstation Four.
Pre-Ordering Watch_Dogs.
Yeah I mean the dialogues shit for sure I guess it just had a certain charm to me.
The brown yoga women was best girl
>current year
>buying anything Ubisoft
You did this to yourself senpai.
>60gb PS3 at launch
$600 and it got YLOD just outside of warranty
>GTA V on launch
Liked the story up until trevor was introduced then when GTA: O was released it ruined the game completely
>Fallout 4 on launch
Complete and utter trash. Even mods can't save it
>PS4 and Xbox One
Have both and they just sit and collect dust. They each have a few good games but nothing that makes either a must have
destiny was by far the most disappointing. god eater was probably the worst
Falseflag
L.A. Noire
>Was still a dumb teenager
>Reading gameinformer because we got it for free for something
>journalists hailing it as the greatest thing, it has like 6 full pages and the front and back cover dedicated to it
>the game is disappointing as fuck
and that's when I stopped listening to video game journalists
karate Kid for NES
fuck you, that game is still in my top 20
>but you look like an idiot playing it
that's the point
...
> Even mods can't save it
>they effectively patched them out
and at the end of the DLC dev cycle too
what the fuck
call of duty for the wii
a good friend recommended it to me
we aren't friends anymore
Please. Please, don't remind us.
Street Figther V with a season pass easily.
Not trying to bait, but the Switch. The last $60 game purchase I got was Pokken on the Wii U (fun game, but regret because it's dead), so I'm not used to spending so much money for a singular game. And then if DMC5 gets announced as a PS4 exclusive, I'm going to regret it even more.
Otherwise, I love my switch and have a decent PC and an xbone I got for free for the other stuff.
Backing Starforge's indiegogo
bioware are fucking trash. how they continue to sell so much shit is confusing as shit to me
>the Switch
>Otherwise, I love my switch
So what, you don't make many bad purchases at all?
Lucky motherfucker.
I bought this piece of shit for full price on release day.
I'm never buying anything from Wayforward again after this shitty game.
They somehow managed to make a game that was not only worse than Shantae: Risky's Revenge but it actually ended up being worse than Mighty No 9 as well.
I fucking hate you Wayforward.
I'm so angry about this shitty game that I forgot my picture.
Pre-ordered and pre-loaded homefront.
Thought it was gonna be the next battlefield or something.
>Game Boy Advance.
I just got the wide one the day before the flip one wit the backlit screen came out. It wasn't advertised in my area. Still had fun with Pokemon Sapphire and Castlevania circle of the moon.
Weird. The online's so good people still play. There's two servers active. People loved it.
Bought a SS Sensei.
I ended up giving it to my brother because it felt so shit compared to my old WMO.
Batman Arkham City
Fell for the GOTYAY edition
Get PTSD from the Riddler Trophies
Never trusted reviewers ever again.
>game not included
>built a computer just to have something decent
>ended up playing some games
>switched to Linux distributions within a few years
>never saw a reason to boot Windows just for games
>stuck to handhelds and modded consoles after that
I regret nothing.
Except for my Wii U. I regretted that shit. Well, until I sold it to buy PC parts.
Dragon Quest 7. I liked Dragon Quest 3, so how bad could it be, right?
>braindead combat
>no reason to care about any of the town subplots because you never go back there again
>enemies spawn under your feet
>character progression based on monotony, not strategy or skill
>think you're finally getting the job system after 18 hours, then the game cucks you for another 3 hours with the most tediously nerve-grating segment of an RPG I have ever experienced in my life
>Kiefer and Maribel have funny interactions, then Prince Queefer leaves your party for good
The most baffling part of this is that DQ3 is a timeless masterpiece. I guess Horii needed the limitations of the Famicom to stop him from getting his head stuck up his own ass.
I am going into battle, and I want your strongest potions.
Online was alright. But it took me literally 2 hours to finish the story. I think that left a really bad taste and I became too disappointed to continue playing the game.
That game is actually good in a lot of respects. It just shits the bed on the story and Aya as a character.
Bet On Soldier
nobody probably even heard of it
Preordered Too Human
and Brink
OH FUCK I FORGOT I BOUGHT THAT
30 fucking dollars for a Vita version, and it doesn't even come complete. I have to buy all the other DLC, despite that fact that I paid more than the average backer. Bullshit. WHY WASN'T THIS GAME FINISHED? IT WAS DELAYED FOR 2 WHOLE YEARS.
speaking of BRINK
BRINK was legit the last game I ever preordered
either that or Douk Nuken 4ever
Though genuinely worst purchase mustve been an imported copy of the GODZILLA game on ps3
Yeah. I didn't play online. Was fucking shocked when I checked, though. Fags playing Homefront in 2017. Not idle, playing. The map's closed as fuck. Lack of people, I guess. Still playing, though. Kinda creeped me out.
Buying DOUK day one was more of a novelty for me. It was worth burning 60 bucks just to know I was there for him.
Brink can suck my balls though, and oddly enough, it was the last time I pre-ordered a game too.
Dark Souls 2 CE.
Learned my lesson, I only buy digital nos.
It would be odd if you preordered again after Brink.
I regret buying a PS4. Thankfully that regret was shortlived as I flipped it on craigslist for the same amount I paid for it.
I thought I'd try a modern console after my last one being a dreamcast, and turns out consoles are still garbage ways to enjoy vidya.
Halo 4
So many fags got burned by BRINK. Guess what? Not my problem. You being retarded doesn't make preordering cancerous.
Why are they playing Homefront? Its like playing Medal of Honor 2010 still, shit dont compute. I guess because the sequel had a better singleplayer but worse multiplayer?
gosh, didn't mean to make you mad, champ.
>Look at me. I'm jaded. Look how Sup Forums I am.
The game was memorable for all the wrong reasons
>HEWLF KOWMAWND POWST
INGRAINED in my fucking brain
Which one had the LMG and the settings that made it so that you could basically imitate Tribes:Ascend? I thought those were neat
>You being retarded doesn't make preordering cancerous.
you're right, because it's inherently cancerous whether or not I choose to preorder
