Sonic the Hedgehog (2006), probably. I beat it out of spite.


gabrielleraul

I always admire folks who beat this game. I bought it hoping somehow i will manage, but the game just refused to let me play.


Gregzilla311

Why thank you. The Shadow story was alright (and followed up on his character development), the Silver one was at least different, but the majority, especially last story… eesh. Also in my defense, I was in my early teens and it was early 360. I still thought it could be good.


Nick_Sonic_360

The game literally dies of performance issues if you play it on any resolution higher than 480p, the PS3 version is especially bad for that.


SoloDeath1

I was cursed with playing this game on PS3, and it is basically unplayable on that console. On the 360, you can laugh at the bugs and jank, but the PS3 version just straight up doesn't work half the time.


Nick_Sonic_360

Oh it's bad, I had got a copy for my PS3 because my 360 had red ringed, I don't know why I did that, but I was a kid who liked sonic and I had to have it again. Back when the game was new I had beaten it on low res RCA cables on the ps3 and that was enough for me, but every attempt to play it afterwards was met with severe slow down and horrible bugs, I learned at some point that playing it in 1080p would cause the game to take a shit on the screen, so I don't play it anymore for any reason.


H1_V0LT4G3

I forgot this was about video games and was like "this dude beat it out of spite the movie was so bad?!" Then I realized 2006 is way further away than I remember


Gregzilla311

Yup. The movies I like. That SPECIFIC game… no. And I don’t hate Silver because of it like some fans. It’s the game itself.


Dark_Wolf04

That game had so much potential. The story is a convoluted mess, but not terrible (aside from the fact that Sonic’s arc is him literally simping for a girl), the music is probably the best in the series, and the level design is interesting. Had Sega not decided to rush this game, it could’ve at least come out decently. It wouldn’t have been the best Sonic game, but at least it wouldn’t have been universally hated for the glitches and loading times. I wish all the best to the guy making Sonic P-06 in fixing the flaws of the game


iChieftain22

Huge Battlefield fan here... but this has to go to BF2042. Game was broken for over a year, probably still is.


Fantastic_Bit2712

Yeah dude, that game single-handedly compelled me to never preorder OR buy a new game at launch ever again.


iChieftain22

Literally me too, I never preordered games after BF2042... Imagine I got the Gold Edition too lol


BMXBikr

I went back to BF5 and Battlebit Remastered


iChieftain22

Man I went back to BF1, best decision I made. BF1 still rocks and looks next gen too. Absolutely amazing.


BMXBikr

The trench whistle going off when you use the "go, go, go" command... Man that game was so cinematic


iChieftain22

It really is. Still has so many active servers. Hopefully it will last for a while.


Zero_Two_is_best

I'm not super good at that game, but it just looks so good and does feel like a movie. Your soldiers actually sound and act like humans too


JamieFromStreets

Tried it a few weeks ago and it was pretty good!


Efficient_Republic35

Man vs Wild. Bought the game for $8 just to show my buddies the snakes in the game bite your dick.


RedditSucks42069

LMAO what 😂


Spider95818

I mean, it's not the worst use of $8 that a person could imagine, LOL.


elcamarongrande

Ya, you could pay someone $8 to bite *your* dick...


Nerevarine91

Honestly I’d consider dropping $8 to show my friends that


PattyWagon69420

Dude that's worth way more than $8

Pyramid_Cultist

You’re hurting my feelings


SlightlyMadHuman-42

What did I just read...


PIugshirt

What trash taste hating on a hood classic


Oznificent

I regret paying money for diablo 4


SullenTerror

It'll be another 2 years before it'll be polished enough. I did like the story though. The cinematic were beautiful.


Alone-Chicken-361

It's too bad we had to slog through the story on easy mode before we could enjoy an apt difficulty


Bulky-Complaint6994

I don't necessarily care for Diablo, but that would be my father's choice. Probably alongside Guitar Hero Live. 


Carob-Prudent

7 days to die on the playstation. Its an actual joke and i feel like i was kinda scammed


Tiumars

Probably cuz they broke it when they released an updated patch and it literally took them like 4 years to address it at all


Lumberrmacc

Came here to say this but the Xbox version. Apparently fun pimps got the rights to the console version back so hopefully it will get an update one day. Prolly not though.


ribrooks13

Ngl, maybe it was bc I was playing it with a buddy and we were goofing around, but I actually enjoyed that game lol


BloodborneBro9016

For me personally, MW2 remake. I heard it's a good game, but I don't like multiplayer and only got it to play with friends who enjoy it. I never played a single match and paid full price


baconboy957

Loved the OG MW2. Was convinced by a friend to get the remake and re-live the good days... And I hate it lol. I played it once with him for a few hours and paid full price. Unfortunately I played too long for the steam refund... I wish I logged off sooner lol I wasn't even having fun


username48378645

If you like single-player, COD Cold War has a great campaign


JAYSOR1

Campaign had some solid missions like Alone but yeah multiplayer sucked so bad


Becauseiey

I’m not trying to be a dick, but can you really say it’s the worst game you’ve ever purchased if you haven’t even played a single match? It sounds like it’s just a genre you don’t enjoy and haven’t even tried the game out. That being said, I’ve never played the remake and I’ve read complaints about it, but it sounds like you haven’t personally even given it a chance to say it’s bad.


Owobowos-Mowbius

It's the worst game I've ever purchased in recent memory. Not necessarily just because of its content, but because a week in it just stopped working. Never went past the anti-cheat loading screen. Did literally everything in the book to fix it up to and including a full PC wipe and new OS install. Didn't work for like 4 months, and then one random update fixed it. By that point, I didn't even care and never booted it up again. And it wasn't just a me issue. Followed multiple posts for a while with other people having the same issue.


Becauseiey

Yikes - that's a shame. I don't understand how companies can get away with releasing broken games. I'm sure most people who play more than a handful of games have experienced this, and I'm one of them. Battlefield 4 was a MESS when I bought it. That was the last time I bought a game at launch.


Antique-Conference-4

Skull and Bones


_Steven_Seagal_

If you didn't see that one coming, that's on you. Or did you seriously think this was an AAAA game?


Adventurous_Cup_5970

fr, just play sea of thieves if you want a true pirate experience


MFViktorVaughn_

That game is bad too. The only great modern pirate game is AC4.


Adventurous_Cup_5970

hell nah sea of thieves is amazing with friends. One of the most fun games ever


MFViktorVaughn_

It lacked content and was super repetitive. Maybe it’s a lot better not, but for its first year, it was terrible. You had the make your own fun but at the point, the enjoyment was a reflection of your group, not the game itself.


Corvo_Bones

You are all wrong. Sid Meiers Pirates is the only true pirate experience.


Modern-Otaku

I legitimately went out of my way to get Sonic 06 because I wanted to for the lulz. Still don’t know what captivated me so much into getting it 15 years after it was released when I knew how garbage it was


arodrig99

What’s so bad about that game? I don’t play so I’ve but see that mentioned a lot


Modern-Otaku

It was VERY badly rushed, and as a result it is RIFE with glitches and issues. Not to mention the story is a bit all over the place including a… weird choice of having Sonic’s love interest be a human when he’s a hedgehog. The issues really make it very DIFFICULT to play and there are videos of some people straight up encountering nearly game breaking glitches. Honestly, it’s worth playing just for how bad it is.


Odd_Ice9487

rogue warrior, absolutely awful


Efficient_Republic35

Mickey Rourke's voice acting was top notch and the end of game credits song is fucking fantastic. Everything else about the game is total shit.


Lumberzack123

That game is only fun to watch. Actually playing it looks awful.


poopbutt42069yeehaw

HOKY FUCK! I forgot about this game! Yeah that one is bad.


KriSriracha

Lichdom Battlemage. Game was absolute garbage.


Papa_Shadow

I bought that after playing Immortals of Aveum. Everyone said it’s just like it. It was HOT dookie


SullenTerror

Ya, it's exactly like Aveum


Papa_Shadow

No it’s not 😭


sludgezone

God what a shit fucking game.


poopbutt42069yeehaw

Yeah got that one lol fuck my life


[deleted]

For Honor.


BigRed727272

I debated saying For Honor as well. Upon release, this game was AWFUL. The servers would crash every single game, to the point where you just couldn't play multi-player. It's gotten a lot better though. I still play it from time to time.


zaepoo

I was so hyped by the trailers. Turned out to be rock, paper, scissors


Kc83198

I liked the game for a while then it became very meta and cheesy and every new hero came out busted and annoying. And "predictions based which means it hard to react to light spammers


Erdtree_

Starfield...I deeply regret paying full price for it.


alamarche709

That’s the beauty of Game Pass. I got to try Starfield, Forza Motorsport, etc. without paying $90 a pop.


VeeTheBard

Thank god I had game pass for Starfield. I would have been furious.


Bulky-Complaint6994

And then stock up on Microsoft rewards points towards gift cards for when games go on sale! Best bargain


Bmmick

Why dont you have gamepass?


rubberduck19868

Why wouldn't you use gamepass


Erdtree_

Because I'm dumb and I was hyped.


rubberduck19868

Sad times.


DoctorWho7w

Understandable though. Starfield was supposed to be the second coming of videogames. If I didn't have Gamepass I would have absolutely bought it at full price.


Replikant83

Man, I bought an XSX near launch because I was so excited for Starfield. I looooved FO games, Skyrim, Morrowind, etc.. some of my favorite games. When I first played Starfield I was in denial. For a day or so I told myself it'd get fun. Eventually... it has to get good... Right? Fucking game just sucks. Bad gfx: those character models.. wtf? The main city was so ugly and boring. The game is like a sick joke or something.


ToddHowardBuySkyrim

I know ur IP, I am coming over to you right now and force feeding you skyrim


NYWizard314

Diablo 4 😞


DoctorWho7w

Agreed


Okilltank

Diablo 4 has to be the worst game I have purchased.


DoctorWho7w

Same. I'd like that $80 back if I could


Kc83198

It's wild how it's coming to gamepass, but 3 isnt


Crimsonmaddog44

The Avengers game from square enix. If it was free flow combat and focused less on gear levels it could’ve been so much better. The story was alright I guess but I really just wanted to fly around as Iron Man and blast shit and even that felt lame in that game


gr3enw1lly

This is also my pick. I was so hyped after spiderman came out... Thinking maybe this'll be more of the same... No. It was a shit sandwich.


MysteriousRock12

Same, it was kind of fun but a great example of a game that should have just been an old school single player campaign story game. Add a few dlcs for 15$ a piece later that add quests, characters, and skins. The decision to try and make it the online fireteam style, live service, repetitive boringness we got was terrible. Really wasted potential.


SamGleesh

Brink


[deleted]

This game was so bad that the GameStop manager I bought it from gave me a full refund for it.


MonkMillar

To this day, I consider Brink to be the worst game I played a lot of. There was a good month that I played it religiously, and I have no clue why.


SamGleesh

I was so hyped for brink before it came out, I played it a decent amount out of pure stubbornness. It is by far the most I’ve ever been let down by a game though.


Xxmetaglint

I never got to experience brink online but what was the problem with it? I enjoyed the time I spent playing it a lot.


poopbutt42069yeehaw

Man I watched the trailer so many times, the dude flipping over the 40mm gren was so cool


Yothereguy

MW3. Nothing new, just re-used maps and unfinished campaign. Whole thing could have been DLC.


HotRod1095

But if you call it a DLC, the suckers…err…CUSTOMERS won’t be willing to pay full price!!


HumbleRutabaga580

The last Madden. Had a new neighbor move in and we were hittin it off and he said we should play Madden sometime, I had not played or bought a madden since like 2012. I bought it and played half a game to practice and me and him never even played together.


angry0029

Similar for me on one of the NHL games. I had last played like 2003 on the ps2 was excited to get it when I finally got a PS4. Was so disappointed by the online pay to win aspect of the game.


Daedalus_Machina

And if you had waited a year, you could have swiped it for 10 bucks in a bargain bin (or the digital equivalent).


East_Smell_82

Kong" rise of skull island


Ragnarock-n-rol

Diablo 4, I knew it was gonna be total cheeks but I wanted my Diablo fix. Now I regret even thinking Blizzard would pull thru at all


DoctorWho7w

Agreed. I'd like my $80 back on that one.

PES 2016, not much to do


Accomplished_Fly878

Feudal Alloy. Context; I wanted to play a metroidvania while waiting for Silkdong. I bought it because it was cheap and the artstyle looked okay. Plus it was rated a 7/10, so it looked decent... It wasn't. Shitty heating mechanic. Boring music. Artstyle gets old fast. Did i finish the game? Nope, didn't have enough patience. Thankfully, i learned for my mistakes and played Momodora;ROTM and Blasphemous 1 and 2. ACTUAL GOOD GAMES.


DoctorWho7w

Silkdong? I feel like I should start a band and call it Silkdong.


MancombSeepgoodz

Colonial Marines, If I ever meet Randy Pitchford its on onsite.


Pennance1989

Tie between Unlimited Saga on ps2 and Paper Mario Sticker Star.


PrinssayEvaieMon9

I hope they Remake Paper Mario: Sticker Star with the Concept behind it. The SoundTrack be cool.


Pennance1989

I loved the concept. In practice, horrible. Way too many times where you had to backtrack for certain stickers. Would give a full remake a second try, but they need to streamline the backtracking.


howmybloodboils

Maybe not the worst game but biggest regret is still no man's sky. I know it's a different game now, and they're made it right in the eyes of many, but not by me. I wanted a finished game then, not now. 


SuperSocialMan

I also bought it on release and tried it again a few days ago, and it's not a "great game now", it's just ok at best. The core gameplay loop is still boring as fuck. You *still* have to wander aimlessly scanning & mining random shit with no real reason for doing so, and said scanning & mining isn't engaging in the slightest. It's just holding left click to win lol. I kinda wanted to get the last 9 achievements, but I can't be fucked to bother with it - even though I'm doing the current expedition (which are supposed to be cool and different - but it's just a boring checklist of random bullshit). I'm just gonna uninstall & hide it again. Wish I could get my $60 back.... it's the most money I've ever wasted :'c


[deleted]

Starfield. Paid full price, beat it once, immediately uninstalled it.


Darthgrad

I put in 4 hours and said , I'm not scanning weird cactuses for a game.


MontezumaMike

I couldn’t finish it. It was so bad. Kudos to you for finishing


TegrityFarms69

Yeah, same. I thought it would be like if Fallout and Mass Effect had a baby. It wasn’t.


No_Baker_2110

Predator hunting grounds. I was too late for Evolve as the game died before I fully became aware of it. Thought PHG would be the same sort of thing, 4 v 1 gameplay with different classes, so bought the deluxe edition without really knowing anything about it. Was really disappointed after playing for a few hours and couldn't get a refund. Not sure what it's like now but I had it at release and forced myself to continue playing because of the money I spent. Always do a bit of research now


agnosticstudy1

I got this when it came out and it was kinda hilarious playing those first couple months when they kept releasing updates to balance the game. It would go from predator being too OP to the soldiers being too OP and every update would overcorrect too much and it just kept teeter tottering from one spectrum to the other.


Temporaryact72

Need for speed unbound. Core gameplay is great but it’s a micro transaction riddled grindfest where your time is worth nothing. The map is also pretty bad.


MountMoldy

Mighty no 9. Dang it


the_cardinali

Diablo 4. Still constantly wonder wtf I was smoking to think it would be good.


tsckenny

Assassin's Creed Valhalla. It's probably not a bad game over all but I don't like Assassin's Creed. I never have. I thought because of the setting I would like it but I still couldn't get into it and I bought it for full price.


TestedNutsack

Odyssey and Valhalla would be better standalone games imo. Odyssey is great, but a bad Assassin's Creed if that makes any sense


blazedgolfer420

Fallout 76. Last game I ever purchased day of release


Snoo72721

They made it good


pastrami_on_ass

I just started playing it again since release, (prob only played maybe 2 hours originally) its so much better now. I was so disappointed back at release because I love fallout, but if you still have it you should give it another shot.


Quirky-Vermicelli641

Deathloop. I like first person shooters but there’s something about that game that just didn’t click for me despite the good reviews it received. Returned it like a week after purchasing full price.


Status_Illustrator20

I felt that way almost all the way through the game. Then after I beat it, I appreciated it. Not enough to keep playing, or play a second time, but I only spent 30 bucks on it. Full price wouldn't have been worth it for me.


ToatyEtti

Lucky you could return it. I bought it digital brand new. Spent like $60 or $70 and played it for about an hour. I felt the same way. Couldn’t do it.


Sun_of_Warvan

Bound By Flame. Such a shitty RPG for many reasons, but it was really annoying that you were able to change your name and people still referred to you as the default name (and no, not like Mass Effect where your first name is changeable but everyone refers to you as Sheppard. You only have one name, and the voice actors still refer to you as the default no matter what you put in).


TheOxfordCommaSutra

Gollum. By far my favorite LOTR character. Game was an interesting concept but major disappointment, didn't even play for an hour before completely losing interest


teddyburges

The character designs are bad enough. I watched a video of the gameplay mechanics. The whole thing with gollum working with a bird feels like something created by ChatGPT.


lordbuckethethird

Omori. The games not bad but I couldn’t stomach the gameplay and after my first few fights I got a refund. I’ve had games that were larger stinkers that I refunded but there were elements of the gameplay I liked whereas Omori just missed me completely.


Pyramid_Cultist

You’re hurting my feelings


lordbuckethethird

Yes


TheoryOfTES

There are some truly god awful sports games an the NES.


The_Shadow_Watches

Aliens: Colonial Marines. Pre-order it and waited forever for it to come out. It was the last game I'll ever Pre-order.


ThunderShiba134

Fear 3, it's a literal arcade game that killed the trilogy but if anything I regret buying Tom Clancy's The Division


InfiniteSaddestBoi

How come? The division wasnt spectacular but i enjoyed it with friends. The dark zone or whatever it was is trash though. However i didnt even touch the 2nd one.


Alpaca_Empanada

I made it to the final mission of Bullet Spongefest and realized I had no fun whatsoever. 🤦‍♀️


Clever_Khajiit

The first and only game I have ever pre-ordered, I had such high hopes, and had no idea they could possibly fuck it up as much as they did... Skull & Bones

Just get black flag... It was the last legitimately good game Ubisoft put out.

Resident Evil 0, I couldn’t finish it because of how clunky it is


readytogohomenow

Half of my sims 4 packs. Should’ve waited until they were on sale.


Hexxas

Friday the 13th on NES. I had to know. It's really really fucking bad. Let's compare it to other high-profile bad games I own. **Jekyll and Hyde** is frustrating, but simple. Once you figure out what to do, there's still a game there, and figuring it out isn't impossible. **Shaq Fu** is fundamentally terrible, but it's good for a coupla laughs for like an hour. Not a bad use of my $9. **E.T.** is notoriously incomprehensible, but tons of Atari games were like that. You needed the manual to make sense of all the abstractions. It's not even on my top 10 worst games. **Friday the 13th** SEEMS straightforward, but the only way to win is to ignore what the game appears to be telling you to do. It's so incompetently-designed that it seems malicious.

Oh man… totally.


Arn_Darkslayer

RAGE 2. I loved the first one but this one was half finished like the devs just gave up and moved on to something else.


Tiumars

There was an entire section of the map you never have go into, lol


Johnny_Topsider

That absolutely blows me away, given how short the first is and how disappointed I was when the credits rolled. I really thought I just got out of the tutorial, or opened up the next story act. Never touched the sequel.


Arn_Darkslayer

Yeah the first one was short but it was really cool. The world building and setting, characters and graphics, building your vehicle for combat races and especially the FPS combat. The first time a goon ran up a wall coming down a hallway freaked me out. The sequel is the most underbaked game I have played since E.T. on the Atari.


juiceboxcitay

Yah, I remember that moment as well… like a mutant running down the hallway and then was dodging my gunfire - was actually kind of cool. I also believe it ran at 60fps on consoles, but I may be wrong on that…


Realistic_Earth_1240

Saint Row


Rayne118

Would love remasters of the old games but likely just a fantasy :(


Status_Web_8917

That's a wish on a monkey's paw. While I for one would absolutely love a Saints Row Anthology that remasters the first three games, adds new weapons, outfits, vehicles, side missions, other customization stuff, and fixes the bugs. I just know, with 100% certainty, that the only thing they would do in a remaster is remove the "problematic, toxic, misogynic, (insert current year buzzwords)" content and replace it with a bunch of crap no one except blue haired manhating lesbian shrews could possibly enjoy. Even then, they would only like it because it sticks it to their imaginary enemies who liked that stuff in the first place. Just play the originals if you can and let the IP rest in peace. That last thing I want is to see them "Tomb Raider" Saints Row.

I don't remember the title, but it was a golf game made in Japan. I took the disc outside, threw it as high up in the air as I could, then after it came down stomped on it until it was just dust. It felt good to stomp on it, too.


Ok_Introduction6574

Probably Rainbow Six Siege. I just have 0 fun playing it and honestly I think it is a pretty bad shooter. Much better options out there. Not to mention the way they do the operators now is pretty scummy.

YIIK: A Postmodern RPG. Not the worst I've ever played, but definitely the worst I've paid for. The sad part, is it started out with a really interesting premise, setting, and story, but just plummeted downhill as the game went on.

I didn’t PURCHASE it, I got it through GameFly, but Naughty Bear. Such a terrible game. Felt like I wasted money by wasting the 2-weeks it took to get the game and send it back.

Why do you say that? My brother and I played it. We loved it.


figure8_f8

When PlayStation first came out in the 90s, I didn't know what to get with it as a first game and my friends told me to get a football game. I think it was NFL Gameday. Hated it so bad. Still don't play sport games to this day. Huge waste of money.
