I was trying to recall what games I hadn't yet beat and I remembered the original Rampage for the NES. I was determined to go all the way through and when I finally beat the 200-and-something level, I got "CONGRATULATIONS!" on a black screen. That's it. I spent several hours sitting in the same chair staring at the same buildings, eating the same people, and punching the same fishbowl and all I get is "CONGRATULATIONS!" To top it off, I did it by myself. So, it literally took twice as long. Of course, if someone else was there, I probably would have spent even more time punching them and knocking them off the buildings. At least I would have had more fun.

Another game was Alone in the Dark for the Wii. It was just a horrible game, but I spent money on it and felt I needed to finish it. There was absolutotely nothing redeemeable about that game. I sold it as soon as I was done. I have never sold another game before or after that.

What games do you regret spending time that you can never reclaim on?

NSMBU. (Was ok just playing through it). The World 9 however was totally not worth getting the star coins for.

I regret washing my games too.
I gotta stop leaving them in my pants when I go to the cleaners.

Well, the games I regret wasting so much time on are the ones you can't really beat. Spent over 100 hours on New Leaf last year and really wish I'd spent it on something else, and if course World of Warcraft which was pretty much the only game I played for 3 years between 2007 and 2009.

I believe I said "wasring" not "washing". This clearly was what I meant and in no way at any time was this a typo. Because, you know....wasring....

Oh, well. Good catch.

The one I regret spending so much time is Catherine....
I really like puzzles, but once I finished it, I was like "so..... yeah..... umm.... it is STILL a cheating story..."

what I[m trying to say is, even thou I enjoyed playing the game, I stressed myself even more than having fun...

You know you think these gaming companies would invent some kinda waterproof devices to protect out games. I mean this happens all the time. Just don't know why they haven't gotten to work on this yet.

All those awful F2P Korean grinders I played from 2008-2011...

I regret getting 100% on Sonic Adventure 2 Battle when I was a kid. It was such a waste of time.

Star Fox Assault - I was very disappointed on so many levels.
Jak and Dexter 2 - I felt it was dull and didn't like how the city felt empty with little to no exploration, you're just basically going from point A to point B all the time.
Mobile Suit Gundam: Journey to Jaburo - Oh man, the controls were poor, trying to aim for a single target was a hassle, why can't I shoot while boosting at the same time? Mission 3 was a nightmare. Can't believe I gotten S rank on every mission and unlock everything from that game.
Shadow the Hedgehog - Why did I bought this?

That's all I can remember right now.

None. If I beat it, it's because I felt it deserved to be played to completion. But thank you for reminding me why I think it's stupid to beat games you don't like.

All the games I listed is when I was 10 or 11 years old and were just time killers that I played during the summer and thinking back now I could have use all that time from playing those games on to something more beneficial for myself.

Sonic ASR Transformed. That mission mode was not worth the hours in hindsight.
Sonic Generations 3DS. Bad level design.

Crimson Shroud. Was not fun to finish since I was overpowered due to being stuck on that one puzzle.

Harvest Moon new beginning. Just never picked up or clicked with me after hours of giving it a chance.

But why would they want that? If you ruin the game, you have to buy another copy.

To clarify, this is not the norm. Thanks for the input and I'm glad I could be of service.

This. Usually games don't fall in this category, I have played some sub par games, but it's not like I regretted the time I spent playing it.

Uh, what... does the game have something do with people who love to collect books? Because I can't imagine they're going to playing many video games.
Unless they like to collect books and never read them. Which I suppose is possible. There's CERTAINLY people who love to collect video games but never play them. (as oppose to others who collect games with plans to eventually play them )
