What was the biggest waste of money you ever did to spend on a video game?
What was the biggest waste of money you ever did to spend on a video game?
Overwatch 60€ edition
GTA4
Fallout 4 is probably the only game I regret buying.
About 3000 bucks on CS:GO cases.
>spend ungodly amounts of money
>never get a knife, once a red, only pinks and purples otherwise
>finally kick the habit and stop
>move to new city, new job, new mindset
>huh, maybe I'll play some CS
>buy one case for fun
>it's a knife
>sell it for 60 bucks and delete my Steam account
>paying $20 extra for a couple of mediocre skins
How did so many people fall for this?
>The games I wasted for my Switch are Shining Resonance Refrain, Deemo, Shaq Fu, Atelier Lydie & Suelle, Resident Evil Revelation 1 and 2, Crash, Spyro and a few of good shovel ware games.
>Never touched them since then.
Why am I such a retard?
Please tell me I'm not the only one!
this and the latest SC2 expansion that shit was awful.
I got fooled and thought I'd like it as much as TF2, what a goddamn nigger cuck I was
DNF Collectors edition
$80 + sub for DC Universe. I unsubscribed the next day and the 30 day sub? It was all canceled so I couldn't even play it out. Game was so shit I didn't care.
I spent about 140 euros in games that i can't play because my old toaster cannot run them. Tho, i don't consider it a total waste, the moment i get enough money to but something better i'll play them eventually. For now i can't even play BioShock remastered properly, and most of my games are around 15 years old
That's what I told myself when I got all these Steam games like Stalker for $2 a decade ago, someday I'll play them when my computer can run them. Even after getting two actual good computers that can run them, I still haven't played them. The moral is don't buy games until you're ready to play them, otherwise by the time you can play them you won't feel like it anymore.
Either League of Legends or ESO, although I didn't pay for it I still consider it a waste of money.
Destiny Preorder
Comic was decent. Cards are always cool. My dad kept the duke bust. Game is trash. Definitely not worth 100 bucks.
damn, beat me to it
i still have the bust, chips, cards, stickers and the certificate
postcards, DIY paper duke and the comic were lost after my cat pissed on them
you can get it for like $15 nowadays
Guess we all got fucked by the duke
Arma 2 for DayZ. Couldn’t even run it. Then, I actually bought DayZ and wondered why the fuck did I want to play this bullshit.
i just want a new, good duke fps
his last good game came out in 2002
and his best, most recent inclusion in a videogame is him just being a fucking reskin
The bust on its own is easily worth at least $40 so if you think about it you only got fucked for the $60 price of a normal game.
>that hollowed out piece of plastic
>$40
user please
Shining Resonance Refrain: Draconic Launch Edition (used, the cardboard sleeve was detached where the glue failed). Bought it after it sold out in shops for ~£41 off eBay. The game is terrible and it returned to in stock not long after and is regularly sub £20.
You're right, it's actually worth 70 dollars.

Bought a lot of booster packs in Hearthstone.
>worth at least $40
I it not even worth $10.
>amazon
>1 in stock
>no buyers
Bet you can't find it for cheaper than that. You better hold onto your Duke, it's going to be worth even more money as time passes.
SSFSS in TF2
Hellgate: London. I bought the game and a lifetime subscription. I think it came to $260. It was strange how I got to that point.
Years before the game came out, I was a youngster on the IGN Boards. One day, browsing the PC General Board, I clicked on a thread about the game. Everyone in it was gushing. Hellgate was going to be amazing. Unbelievable. Incredible. Better than Half-Life 2. A revolution in gaming. Obviously I had to get a load of this game, so I went to its IGN page. All it had was the title of the game and like five screenshots, and the screenshots all looked shitty. I looked at them for a while, really hard, trying to see what everyone else saw, but it just looked shitty to me. So I went back to the thread. As delicately as I could I said that I didn't think the game looked all that great. Instantly the forum bigwigs were all over me, lambasting me, quoting me, laughing hysterically. I was a complete idiot. A dunce. These were the guys who made Diablo 2! Hello? Ever heard of that game, moron?
From that point on, slowly, over the course of years, I convinced myself that Hellgate was going to be amazing. I convinced all my friends too. I even played it in beta, and that didn't break the spell. I fervently believed that it was going to topple World of Warcraft. So when the opportunity came, I put my money where my mouth was. I bought the game and a lifetime subscription. The game shut down after fifteen months.
my cat knocked it over and the bust separated from the base, managed to glue it back together so the cracks aren't visible, so it's basically a worthless paperweight anyhow
>Bet you can't find it for cheaper than that.

Dude what is wrong with your cat? He destroyed half your Duke Nukem merchandise? What's his problem? I'm assuming it's a male cat since he pisses on everything.
This is used so it doesn't count.
60 bucks on Neir Automata. Played a little past the long tutorial and never touched it again. No idea why people shill for it so hard.
WoW subscription
