So far with my 360, the biggest waste of money was paying six dollars to rent GRAW. I hated that game so much. Then next on my list would be paying five dollars to buy Pocketbike Racer from Burger King.
GRAW was hard, but if yo played it like it was supposed to be played, it would have been the ride of your life. I bought it and finished it on both difficulty levels, great game...Icarus405
yeh, you got to play it smart .. don't try to be rambo

GRAW was one of the best tactical shooters I've played. I didn't think Perfect Dark Zero was worth the buy. It was one of my first games.
I haven't quite got my head wrapped around GRAW at the moment, I agree about Perfect Dark. I was so disappointed when I got my hands on it, especially after the classic N64 version. Unfortunately Rare has lost it's touch since leaving Nintendo.
Crackdown I felt was a waste of money, I'm just glad I didn't buy it lol.

Yea, well I don't know if I'd say they lost their touch, a lot of their games like Kameo and Viva Piniata have a Nintendo level of polish on them, but I think maybe they just didn't evolve as much as Microsoft was hoping. Now they're doing another bango and kazooie, but it's like who is still into cartoony platformers where you have to collect a bunch of fruit, notes or coins.
CoD3. the MP feels just way too chaotic. i didn't play CoD2 on the 360 (played it on PC), but it seemed like the jacked up the pace of the game. i remember CoD2 being a slower style shooter.
I'd have to say CoD3. I dont play online multiplayer on consoles so i was hoping for a decent single player experience. However, what i got was a seemingly unpolished p.o.s. Keep in mind that i played and loved the first two on the PC.
I'd have to say buying the Burger King games last holiday season.... I played them a few times and that was it. If they were XBox Arcade demos I would have tried it out then deleted them. I usually buy my games used or after the price goes down on titles so, I don't feel I'm wasting my money too much. I actually get better deals that way with the buy two get one free plus 20% off offers some places throw out there now and then. :)

Being Rambo is half the fun of the game. Atleast on GRAW 2 it was.
Anyway my biggest waste of money was renting Spiderman 3....
Well.. I haven't WASTED any money.. but the purchase I was most pissed about was the wireless adapter. I was under the misconception that the Elite came with wireless built in, but I was sadly dissapointed. I understood I had to buy an adapter, but it ticked me off that I had to buy the wireless adapter separately when the Wii and PS3 have it included. I will say though that it is MUCH more convenient to not have to have my gaming console right next to the router.
Gears of War, single player was way to short and the multiplayer was uninspired and repetitive. Luckily I got most of my money back when I traded it in.

Apparently plenty of people enjoy cartoony platformers if Nintendo's current hardware sales are any indication.
