The Most Regrettable Purchase/Trade Ever Thread

The holidays are coming and it means we buy/trade a bunch of things for other things and stuff.

Anyway...
Here we discuss our horrific episodes in which we did the wrong move and bought/traded something we now regret purchasing/trading.

Go.


I'll say mine later, but first you guys and your experiences.

Dead Island.

At first we thought the game was going to be pretty freakin' awesome.

Turns out it got boring after 2 hours into it.

Monster Hunter Tri for the Wii.

Absolute disappointment. I was a sad.

A Wii.

Just a paperweight now. Does not help that Nintendo refuses to lower the prices on their first-party games (Brawl is still $50? Really?) A system based on motion controls and yet they are the worst aspect of the system...nice going Nintendo. What's next Nintendo? An overpriced portable with very few good games and fake 3-D? Nah, they would never do that.

heheh, the only thing I use my wii for is Brawl and that's about it.
(yeah, no, ddr ii and i don't get used)

I keep trading and buying back the Sonic Adventure remake. In retrospect I suppose I like it, but honestly, Big the Cat? Really?

Also I traded Mario Parties 4, 5, 6, 7 and 8 in for Persona 3 FES. I NEED YUR HALP, indeed.

The rule is -

NEVER buy a game that is based on a movie.

Needed more emphasis.

---

If any of you have ever played this game, you know how difficult and frustrating it can AND WILL get. However, the soundtrack is, arguably, one of the best I've ever heard, even rivaling some DDR games.

This thread is for regrettable purchases and trades.
Is that a regrettable purchase/trade?

Spider-Man 2 and The Chronicles of Riddick want to talk with you.

---

Gameplay-wise: Definitely regrettable.
Soundtrack-wise: Absolutely not regrettable. HOWEVER, they did release a soundtrack for the game, and that is worth getting.
Just saying.

---

They say it was a fun game.
I guess they were wrong.

Who are they?

---

Reviews from various sources.

Everyone has their opinion.
I think that the gameplay is atrocious and the soundtrack is amazing.
It's a mixed bag.
No pun intended. (To those who played the game)

---

So anyway, back to regrettable purchases.

Wii Music

yeah that was boring

I didn't even realize we left the topic, but, alright.
