You've made a horrible mistake!

You save your hard earned money, you call in the I.O.U, you beg, borrow, do all the cleaning to get the DO$H for the game you've been waiting for. Excited and full of the joys of spring you run, jump on a train, bus, taxi, you even convince you best friend or mum and dad to buy it on the internet. You finally get the game in the palm of your hands and you can't get the wrapping off quick enough....... You even forget to eat because that's really not important anymore. It finally loads up...... game on!

Half an hour into the game you're like, "hold on these graphics aren't as good as I thought they'd be?". 10 minutes later ..."this story is kinda rubbish". 5 minutes later... "the A. I in the game is repetitive! Then the realisation creeps up on you, like Batman in Arkham Asylum. "I've just made a horrible mistake!"

Yep ....... you've bought a wasteman game! A pile of rubbish, doo doo (you get the picture). So I wanna know, what game was completely over hyped? What game did you waste your money on, and then had you sprinting to the nearest exchange shop? Come on people name and shame!!

    Far Cry 2 got great reviews but it wasn't that good: Sure the graphics were good and there was lots of flash-bang action but the story - wandering around Africa killing random people - didn't make any sense and the enemies constantly reappeared at the checkpoints. You could only take on one mission at a time, your weapons constantly jammed, running a few yards made your vision blurry and you kept getting sick wih malaria and having to look for pills. I tried but eventually gave up.

    I read lots of reviews and user feedback so usually I manage to avoid really bad games (some people realy love Far Cry 2 btw). This year I have enjoyed Dead Space, Fallout 3, Mirror's Edge, Braid, Plants versus Zombies and Team Fortress 2.

    Games out soon that I hope are good = Dragon Age, Borderlands, Assassin’s Creed 2...

    I bought Halo 3 after the big promotion and everything... I thought the game was total rubbish and bought it back after 3 days of playing it..

    Too Many game's to remember, but recently i bought the Street Fighter 4 COLLECTORS EDITION the game is brillient but for £59.99 the only extra you get is a crappy anime DVD of a new very budget Street Fighter story and 2 Street fighter figurines that look like they came out of a kinder egg !, no way the double inflated price !
