"Triple A" games you wasted money on.

The Crew and The Division were my biggest waste of money ever. Strange because I played the free beta of The Crew and I absolutely loved just driving around exploring the world, once I bought it I had seen the all map and hated the racing

Technically... I managed to get a refund. I'll probably end up buying it again when it no doubt goes on a heavily reduced steam sale.

Even I refrained from No Mans Sky. Living in a weird, sort of another persons imagination of a universe with no end just doesn't appeal to me at all. I like open ended games with actual REAL content.

The creepy head of happy games was the main reason I didn't get it, I just watched a 1 hour twitch of someone else getting to the centre of the universe, and found out that you just start all over again and go on and on... ridiculous. Living in the mind of a lunatics idea of a universe.
 
I'd say Star Wars Battlefront, it was so boring with such limited content. I feel like it wouldn't of been a waste if their was a single player but awhile I knew it was just multiplayer that sucked balls.

Don't think I've wasted money on a AAA game before except for that one.

An older one but I was extremely butt-flustered at the state of Test Drive Unlimited 2 on release. It was just a mess, the unskippable cutscenes were atrocious and doing anything besides the core gameplay felt like a chore. The graphics were pretty terrible for a PC game at the time too.

I put a lot of hours into it because the actual racing was quite good, but then there was an update and all my data went missing, great.

You've just reminded me of this from that generation of gaming. It was awful, filled with bugs and looked like crap. One other game I thought was a waste was Sniper Elite 3, it just didn't have the magic of 2 for some reason, I think it was the stealth didn't work correctly.

Indeed, I had was under the impression that you could basically do anything thus creating your own content. As soon as I (and many others) understood the limitations of the game the lack of content became incredibly obvious... Gutted really. :(
 
Can't beleive you have bioshock/infinite on there :o. Infinite in my top 5 games of all time ever. Do you even like games :p

Mine have to be:
Fallout 4
Farcry 4
Starwars battlefront
Every COD after BO2
Battlefield hardline
No man's sky
Dragon age inquisition
The evil within
The Division
Assassins creed unity
Doom
 
I wasn't feeling Bioshock Infinite. Just couldn't get into it, but then I never really played the preceding installments.
Got it free with a GPU, so didn't really care tbh.

Haha, I think most people can relate to this one. It'll be interesting to see sales figures comparing Battlefield 1 and COD: Infinite Warfare.

Really hoping it'll force COD into a decision to go 'back to roots'.

Get it completed :D. You wont regret it.

To be honest the first time I played it, i didnt really feel it for the first couple of hours but does get really good once you get into it and understand it.

Probably completed it what...5 times now lol. I would say get the guide though. Goes really well with explaining everything. All extras, voxophones etc which explain parts of the story well.

Call of duty infinite warfare. Tried the beta today. It sucked. Only got it for COD4 remastered which is awesome, but it's pretty cynical to stop people buying that on its own
