I agree 100% but I feel obliged to team up with my mate when I'm online with him and it bores me to death. I got a solid 50hours out of it though, excellent value, and I have the season pass so it might get better... some how.
"Triple A" games you wasted money on.

I can't get IV Ultra in fullscreen! Being a Neo Geo fanboy my heart lies with the latest King of the Fighters on the PS4, blows all other fighters away in the playability department.
I'll go out on a limb and say, it is ****. You start with most abilities so sense of progression is limited straight away. The acting is crap. The script is crap. The story is crap. There are too many vents, gee where is the originality? I can't imagine anyone being happy spending £50 on it, even after completion. IGN give it 92, GameTM 6/10, I should have waited for GameTM to pop through my letterbox, as IGN must have been paid off.

Guild Wars 2 and Rome Total War 2. Couldn't get in to either.
I'm looking to pickup Doom soon when it drops to about £15, or nothing perhaps... just to experience it on my new setup as technically it is supposed to be awesome. I did well not paying £35 for that I think. I'll find out eventually.
Well it might of just been the mood I was in to complete CoD: Ghosts as normally I don't like FPS games. I will look into Paradox, as I'd love a good strategy game. Got City Skylines which I've spent the grand total of 10mins on, but I think it's a glass of wine night game. Problem I have with something like Wow, is 1) I missed quite a few classics because I just wanted to play that, a big problem. 2) I'm useless at raids etc. and all the fancy acronyms and purple gear snobs etc.
hmmm maybe it's because I've got a shorter attention span now... maybe I'm getting old(42), there is something wrong at my end I know there MUST be!
I wish my list was this short. Guild Wars 2, massive letdown, very over hyped too. Enjoyed the very first Total War(for to mention), Shogan : Total War, I think I just lost interest in those types of games tbh. I have 4 of them, and can't get into any! Humble Bundle $15 for the lot deal.
I hear ya. My steam games list has all the new games near the bottom because kids/job/missus etc take up my time more these days. Rocket league is the only game I have time for these days!
Also, there is a multiquote button

any of the far cry series, i loved 2 on the ps3 but good god the pc version is unnessecarily awful if your on an amd card.
assasins creed unity, how ubisoft went from the peak of black flag to the dull grey and unengaging unity is beyond me, normally i get quite drawn in to an ac plot but unity had me give up of boredom halfway through.
the witcher 2, although i suppose it isnt the games fault, i just can't get into the witcher universe.
arma series, a game i want to love soo much but every time i do i hate it for being such an over-done poorly coded mess, if they spent less time making bee hair cast shadows and calculating how long you get blinded for when you go outside and more on the basic running of the game, optimisation and making the ai less like the gi joe super sniper geniuses they are it could be so much better.
civilization beyond earth, i dont know what it is about this game, but despite everything that should be great about it i just give up and go back to civ 5 (which is one of the few games i tolerate bugs on, rage inducing as they are, im hoping civ6 will be civ5 with bugfixes and mantle)
theif remake- because it should have been better than dishonoured, and it was not.
star trek- i should have known, games based off films are never good.

This is an easy one Watchdogs. Absolutely terrible and nothing like what was promised.

You absolutely do not start with most abilities. Of the ones you do they are at the first of several levels. There are several that you can choose to begin with, but that leaves many levels not accessed and none of the white overdrive abilities are readily accessible to begin with. By the end of the game you will not have expanded all the abilities, and there will be several you will not have accessed at all.
The acting is completely fine. I thought the script and story was OK, but that I suppose is a matter of taste. It is however a fact that the acting is not 'crap'.

All the ones I own. Either no one plays them or they're full of hackers.

I have a controller. I just suck at using them.

Aliens vs Predator (the newest one)
Battlefield 4
Borderlands
Company of Heroes
CS:GO
Half-Life 2 (got as part of the Orange box that I bought for Portal)
L.A. Noire
Metro 2033
Mirror's Edge
Overwatch
The Secret of Monkey Island: Special Edition
Tales of Monkey Island
The Witcher
Aliens vs Predator (the newest one)
Battlefield 4
Borderlands
Company of Heroes
CS:GO

L.A. Noire
Metro 2033
Mirror's Edge
Overwatch
The Secret of Monkey Island: Special Edition
Tales of Monkey Island
The Witcher
Rome 2 Total War
That was my last pre order.
I rarely buy new games now, just wait and see how they turn out and pick them up in sales if I still want it (normally I don't because they're often poop).
I regret Mass Effect 3 really, so much potential and it just felt terrible compared to the first two, the ending was just appalling.
