Tomodachi life. Got boring rlly fast

this exactly. I thought it looked super on the adverts and stuff but yeah I just don't really find it interesting. Plus you can't really develop it much

*edit
I also just ended up making people I don't like in real life but I made them super ugly and was mean to them so yeah

Unpopular opinion; Super Smash Brothers 3DS.

I've loved all of the SSB games since N64, so naturally I had to buy it for my 3DS.
A couple of fights later I came to the realization how much I hate playing it on such a small screen and the 3DS controls.
Target wouldn't let me return it since it was open, so I put it on eBay less than 24 hours later lol. It sold in 2 days.
 
Hydrophobia: Prophecy. I thought it would be a cute little indie puzzle game, and it was only 20 cents. I thought it would be worth it, but then I realised the game was a buggy, awful looking, boring shooter that had some water in it. The water wasn't even very nice looking.

I wasted 20 cents that day.
 
Tales of Xillia 2. I usually love tales, but even for that series, the story was ridiculous and I hated having a silent protagonist.

That's usually the case unless it's a really good one.

Same with Lovely Planet it's buggy as hell and the controls suck
 
Metroid other M. It is still collecting dust to this moment, never played it because i heard how bad it was
 
Kitty Power's Matchmaker. I was so hyped to play it but it gets so repetitive so quickly... (* ̄m ̄)
 
Mario Party 10.
Yeah it's pretty and all but... I feel the competition slowly left the game. I haven't played since 7, and I was disappointed. It doesn't feel like a challenge anymore. The only fun part of the game is when you're playing bowser.
 
Super Smash Bros. Everyone said it was so good so I bought it, I played for like a few days but got bored..
 
Just bought the Last of Us and regret it. So far it's just sneaking up on guys to kill them and walking through endless halls. :/
 
Devil May Cry trilogy HD.

I bought it so that I could play though the old games without having to set up my PS2, as well as the better picture quality, both of which it does (kind of).


It's such a ****ty and lazy attempt though. All the menu's and most of the cutscenes are still in their original 4:3 aspect ratio and don't look to have been touched at all, so they look like utter **** and are so jarring to witness when the aspect ratio changes constantly from 16:9 to 4:3 every time you open the map or sit though certain cutscenes (literally, it's just certain cutscenes, the lazy ****s)

There are also frame rate issues in a few places and massive slowdown in one specific area of the first game. Frame rate issues and slowdown for a PS2 game running on the PS3? I really doubt that those HD textures are pushing the game over the edge, it's just an obvious ****ty port.

It also promises loads of bonus extras...That are all things seen in the original version of the games as far as I can tell. Maybe it's new content for other regions, but not the UK. I've seen all this **** before. Don't advertise new content when it isn't, just take that big 'new content' label off the EU boxes and avoid the false advertisement. Same as Square did for the UK versions of Kingdom Hearts and FFX, they didn't advertise new content here because it wasn't new content for us. It's really as simple as removing a label, yet Capcom couldn't be bothered.


Though it's Capcom, so I am actually quite happy the entire games are on the disc and they haven't instead tried to sell me the attack button as DLC.



It's such an utter joke compared the the Metal Gear Solid HD, ICO/SotC HD, Final Fantasy X/X-2 HD, Kingdom Hearts HD or pretty much any other HD collection that has properly updated all the menu's, cutscenes, audio, HUD etc to look decent on modern consoles. They can't even be bothered to lazily stretch the existing menu's.
I hope whoever was in charge of this was fired. They really shouldn't be working with video games if this thing is the best they can do.

Pretty much any game that I think is a good deal in a Steam Sale, I consider. After I end up buying them, I end up regretting it. One time there was an Origin sale and I bought Need for Speed: Most Wanted. Then I remembered that I didn't like racing games.
 
Please don't hate me but zelda majouras mask, I have NO IDEA HOW TO PLAY IT. IM SO CONFUSED. LIKE WHAT TIME? I GET DOCTOR WHO BUT WTF.
 
Hmm, I think it would have to be Blazblue Continuum Shift II. The game looked cool but I never really got into it and it wasn't that fun for me so it just sat there for a few years until I sold it again.

Otherwise I think I'm happy with all of my purchases. I don't buy all too many games and ones I don't really like suck as Pok?mon mystery dungeon gates to infinity, I am glad that I at least tried it out. Most of my games are Nintendo first party and those are pretty much always great.
 
Pretty much every game I've gotten through a Steam sale. I have a library of over 200 games and I only ever play Medieval Total War, Team Fortress 2, and Plants Vs. Zombies. What a sad waste!
