What are some games you regret buying for the 360?

FYI: The games I used as tags are just to get views, those are not games I regret buying.

Assassin's Creed. I enjoyed it, but it's just to repetitive.

I think there is a Hulk that came out for the original Xbox that might be better than the latest Hulk game.

Wow. I'm surprised to hear that. These games are dog cheap right now, I'll probably go pick them up today & expand my collection...except probably not Splinter Cell, just the other two.

At least you guys didn't buy something truly horrid, like EDF 2017. I paid $20 for it & it's the worst thing I ever paid for. Other games that I've rented were even more horrible: King Kong and FF:ROTSS.

Bioshock - An overrated FPS that I gave into the hype for. got it on PC, so i can't even sell it to Gamestop for a dirt cheap value.

Assassin's Creed - Too repetitive with no replay value, and I am NOT going back to collect flags for a few achievement points.

Crysis - Amazing visuals don't make up for several gameplay flaws and some seriously behind-the-times multiplayer.

Halo 3 - Mainly because at the time, games like COD4 and Eternal Sonata were out and I could have gotten something else instead. It also feels too much like Halo 2 in a bad way.

Superman. The demo was the entire game. NFS: Carbon. NFS: MW was a bazillion times better. Lost Planet. Stun-lock = epic fail.

Halo 3. Gears of War. Conan. Oblivion.

The only game i like on my 360 is Halo 2...and that isn't even a 360 game. I still have hope for Fable 2 though.

I love EDF its a great old School Shooter but in a 3d world but i must admit it has little play back value. Good fun in the hardest Difficuly with a mate too,.

Worst games I wasted money on: Oblivion-game just didnt click with me, couldnt pick it up. Bought it over a year ago and played it couple times and havent touched it since then.

dead rising-one of the worst games i ever played on the 360. I only played $20 for it but that still was an epic ripoff to me.

ViVa Pinata is great its so relaxing.. like sim city with a little more color. I hated the darkness its annoying and really not my kinda game.

other people like it so i use it as a trade for other games from friends/ co-workers ect

Hitman: Blood Money

Gears of War

Command and Conquer 3

Dead Rising

Overlord

Viking: Battle for Asgard

To be fair, to me, only the Halo 3 single player was terrible. The multiplayer was playable, at least, provided you turned on mute.

Ghost Recon, Burnout Revenge, and Mass Effect. Ghost Recon just seemed boring to me compared to most shooters. Burnout Revenge... just sucked. Mass effect was alright I'm just not into role playing. It was attempt to get into it but just didn't work out.

I have one SERIOUS REGRET game. And the nut at Gamestop that recommended it to me is off of my "Talk-To" list. He rated this so high.

It was the most stupendous game of the 21st Century. And on and on. I listened to him. sheesh...

HAZE....

Leave that one alone. Don't even rent it. That game was so bad I couldn't even finish it.

I took a loss on it when GS had a "Trade any two" games in, get ten dollars credit. I was glad to get that one out of my house. Boy, what a stinker that was.

EDIT: I should have mentioned that this edition of Haze was for the PS3... oops. But, no matter which console, it still su*ks, bad...

I did get NFS:Carbon for free. I think that's the one I regret having the most.

Mass Effect. I barely had the motivation to play it two times through for the achievement. I wish I just rented it. Also I wish I didn't buy Shadowrun. I wished it had a campaign involved and not just strictly multiplayer.

Generally, I regret buying any game that isnt a big hit title. Games that scored decent to great ratings deserve a rent at best (scores ranging from 7.0-8.7). I will only buy a game that is epic, like Metal Gear Solid 4 or Gears of War. Pertaining to games that score 9.0 and up. Dont get me wrong though, I dont just go by review scores alone.

The game that I regret buying the most, is Ninja Gaiden 2. I was more disappointed about this game than Lair on the PS3. Yes, you heard right. I liked Ninja Gaiden Sigma (PS3) but NG2 didnt do anything new. Actually, it was a weaker game than Sigma and that's pretty sad for next-gen. Ninja Gaiden 2 was more repetitive than Assassin' Creed. I enjoyed Devil May Cry 4 a lot more than NG2 and I thought DMC4 was pretty average to solid.

#1 Burnout Paradise- i need a game with a story... not just pulling up to a red light and smashign stuff

#2 Halo 3 for sure - just thought it would be better than the second one,but it wasnt.

#3 Battlefield 2- horrible and too hard

#4 Splinter Cell DA - i already got rid of this one.. i got rid of it early and i got good money for it... it was just bad

im on the boarder on Assasins creed... it will turn out to be a good series im sure.

and MOH Airborne- i love WWII stuff, and i loved this game at first.. but now going from COD controls and gameplay 2,3,or 4 to MOH Airborne its nothing comapred to COD series.

To the people who don't like oblivion, do you not like rpgs in general? I personally found it to be one of the best WRPG experiences I have had since EQ: RtA

Perfect Dark Zero. I played it about 80% through when I first got it, then finally figured out how to drag my XboX account to the 360 and stopped playing it. Over the years, I've tried a few times to pick it back up again, but by the second mission I'm bored out of my mind and i quit.

Oh, and I also regretted bying GTA4. I gave into the hype and bought it at midnight launch. I ended up trading it to my friend for his copy of DMC4.

I have 15 other 360 games that I don't regret at all though. :)

PS. I would have regretted GEARS too, but lucky me rented it first. It was fantastic, but way, way too short. I didn't like the multiplayer at all.
