I bet we've all made some pretty lame choices down the years.
I know i've bought some real stinkers in my time
I.e: FIFA64 (Shudder) (and paying a whopping £55 for the pleasure for EAs biggest stinkfest)
Paying £70 for Turok when it first came out (great game...but £70!!)
The Last Report on the PS1..saw it in the shop and it looked quite original....VERY bad game.
Paying about £50 each for Duck Tales & Chip N Dale on the NES....completed both on first go
(and £50 was a lot to waste back then with no means of earning more cashola)
Cruisin USA on N64.. loved the arcade game, in it's day, but N64 one was pants.
The City Of Lost Children.. great ,if strange French film turned into a Resident Evil style adventure game...very frustrating and shorter than a very short piece of string.
There's probably many more but they don't deserve to be remember.
So what are your biggest mistakes??

I went into a second hand games shop in cambridge the other day, and saw Virtua Racing (megadrive) retailing for £69.99!!! Second hand!
I have bought some really bad games in the past, Koudelka on the PSone being a prime example :)
Sorry, typing error (say/saw)
Not a very easy mistake to make!

In the days at the start of the PS when I was younger and less experienced gamer I bought the terrible game, Space Jam.
Laugh you may...

My biggest mistake was South Park on the N64!!!!!
Also, £70 is a total rip-off.
In Cold Blood for PSX.
Pah, one day I will burn that game, and I will laugh heartily.
