god i must admit this site is awesome and has helped us cheapasses alot....i didnt find out about it till late 03 so couldnt reayy take advantage of it....anywayz i know i feel i payed way too much for some games that i knew werent worth it.....am i the only one......the list begins


THE HULK (XBOX)- $50 NOT THAT THE GAME WAS BAD BUT I GUESS I WAS JUST CAUGHT UP IN ALL THE MARVEL MOVIESMADNESS...I BARELY EVEN PLAYED OT....

japanese soul calibur 2 for the GC.

why couldnt i just wait.

why.

does anyone want this?

Without a doubt Star Wars Galaxies. I purchased this for $50 before I knew about CAG and video game deal sites even though I'm not sure I would have saved much money. But regardless of the price I think this game just plain sucks. Boring combat, a lot of bugs as it was released before it was ready, and really lame professions like dancer/entertainer (how can that be fun?). I am hesistant to buy any SW game after that, as I really don't even care for Star Wars that much (I like the movies but really can't handle the obsessive star wars fans). I think the whole franchise is way overmilked for games. Sorry for the ramble and hope I didnt offend any Star Wars fans. Luckily I sold mine and made some money back.

Kirby's Air Ride for $40, up for trade in the cheapass trade forum :P

I am with you on that msdmoney, I bought SW Galaxies too when it first came out, and it really did suck it was just boring.

Socom 2 for 45$ I bought it for my brother, but I should have waited and got a better deal

a new engine for a grand am

For me, it was Resident Evil 0 for 34.99. I'm not even a RE fan. I saw it on sale, and I thought it was a good bargain. Now the game is 19.99 everywhere, and it sits still wrapped in my bookcase.

My worst buy was back somewhere in the begining of 2003. Toys R Us was having that buy 2 get one free deal. Yeah, I bought Xenosaga, Clock Tower 3 and .hack part 1 all for $50.00 each or $100.00 for all 3. Good deal back then right? Kinda, but like a month later, every single game I had gotten in that deal recieved a major price reduction everywhere. .hack went down to $19, Xenosaga to $29 and Clock Tower 3 to $29. Frustrating when after you get a good deal on some games, then you see an even better deal not even a month later and other games I almost got with the Toys R Us deal but didn't to get the ones I did get, didn't recieve any kind of price cut.

Then there's the whole Silent Hill 3 thing. Bought it on release day for $50. 1 week later, price cut at Target and everywhere else for $39. Grrr. 1 week. Come on.

i also bought STAR WARS CLONE WARS(XBOX) FOR $40...I BOUGHT IT THE FIRST WEEK SO ATLEAST IT WASNT $50 BUT STILL I DUNNO IF ITS WORTH THAT MUCH....I GUESS I BOUGHT IT CUZ IT WAS LIVE

I really didn't have a bad purchase (that I would consider) in 2003. If I had to choose one it would have been Project Gotham Racing I guess.

However, in '04 I already have one bad purchase - BMX XXX (GCN) $3.00 What was I thinking?

I didn't have a "bad" buy, but I did cash in on the buy 2 GH get 1 free early last year at Target, got Midnight Club, Maximo, and Virtua Fighter...and hardly play them at all.

Raw 2 for Xbox at full price ($50.00). What a piece of shit. Fortunately I sold it almost immediately and got about 35 of it back.

I ALSO BOUGHT RAW 2 FOR $50 FIRST DAY IT CAME OUT....BUT I DONT REGRET IT.....I LIKE ALL WRESTLING GAMES...AND I PLAYED IT QUITE A BIT..

dead or alive xtreme beach volleyball for 50... just... couldnt... resist temptation...

Star fox adventures preowned for $35. Despite the harsh criticism I still thought this game would bring back some nostalgic memories of the past games. To my surprise the game was everything I hated, and the best part ( ship flying) last less than a minute in between worlds. On top of that a little later the game went down to $20 new at most stores.

Star Wars Rogue Squadron III Rebel Strike + Bonus on 1st day.....what a waste of money...I haven't played it for more than an hour.

For me it was Morrowind

caps lock is bad.

Anyawys, my worst purchase was Enter The Matrix for my Xbox at full price. Its so frustrating to see a liscense get abused so bad. Now i know how Star Trek fans feel.

And yes, the GAME was bad...I consider the live action cut scence something compltely different, thats why i recorded them onto my comp before i traded that pos in

wait, unfortunately there are more.

shadows of destiny 50 dollars. if you dont know what this is, dont find out.

escape from monkey island 20 dollars. well that one wasnt completely useless. it helped lull me into my mid afternoon nap more than a few times.

state of emergenc 50 dollars, purchased after revelling in gta3 and felt rockstar could do no wrong.

shadow hearts 50 dollars. heard some people from square made it. and was hard up for an rpg. awful battle system.

nfl fever 2003 50 dollars. got an xbox decided to try out a sports game. why i picked that one ill never know.

and morrowind 50 dollars. also hard up for an xbox rpg. but... just... too much... to do. computer rpgs scare me now.

luckily i traded all those pieces of crap in for kingdom hearts and washed away all the pain.
