WORST pc game you ever bought

[Bryan]

Front Mission Evolved... Really hate twitchy, short and buggy Mech games.

I think I would need to break that down into 2 categories.

Total Flops...I quit playing the game after an hour or 2 and never went back...

Cryostasis
Homefront
Resident Evil 5
Dead Island
Return to Castle Wolfenstein

Disappointments...I still played them for a couple of hours, or even finished the game....

The Walking Dead
Aliens vs. Predator
Enemy Territory: Quake Wars
Medal of Honor

Unfortunately there are others...but these were the biggest losers for me.

The Ghostbusters game.

Maybe I need to try it again, but when I did the controls were kind of clunky to me and I just couldn't get into it.

I think I only paid $5 for it though, so not that big a deal.

Ever is a long time for me.. too many to list. recently.. Deadspace 1. Got it on a steam deal and I still want my $5 back. Craptastic console port. Never even was able to get the controls to work properly.

That game does have crappy controls but there are a few workarounds out there and if you do manage to find a solution you like, it's a really rewarding horror experience.

I have done my best to avoid the band wagon.... but...

Duke Nukem Forever.

When I bought it (yup, I paid $60 for it) I thought to myself, "all these people cant be right. It has to be as good as Painkiller. Good ol'mindless Painkiller. pewpewpew..."

PEW!

DNF is junk, from the way health is handled, to the clunky slow weapon swaps, to a difficulty level thats somewhere between Walk Through/Tour and Insanity.

I recently started it over again thinking I was too harsh on the game, and maybe... just maybe if I dipped down into the lowbrow, the humor would at least draw a chuckle.

Nope. I was so pissed about DNF I reloaded Painkiller to see if I was stoned or drunk. Painkiller for as old as it is, blows DNF out of the water. Run and gun and gun and gun and HEAVY METAL.

I never did like the Black & White games either. Migraine waiting to happen.

BF3!

now let me explain. before i bought the game, i wanted to setup 3 monitors for Eyefinity. BFBC2 was awesome, but BF3 has that Muffin tactical light that causes tearing and actually hurts my eyes. so since i cant play the game without physical pain, it is the worst game i ever bought.

I don't know. I played Superman 64 for a short time years ago, worst console game I ever played. If you played it, probably know enough about it.

suck it up! we all have that tactical flashlight in our faces while playing and its really annoying... But I don't see how thats the one thing to decide to simply throw away 60$ and never play the game again. If its a problem with eyefinity, why don't you just try it on a single monitor?

I was like 11 or 12 when Superman 64 came out and I asked my parents to get it for my birthday. So yes, I know well how crappy it is because I wasted a birthday on that piece of crap game!

I'm not trying to complain or be a baby but the game is meant to be fun, the second it stops being fun, it also stops being a game IMO. i got 2.5 hours in, and the time i got back from not playing... is well worth what i paid.
