We all do it sometimes. When you buy things you really shouldn't have, and you regret it, normally selling it on eBay for 50-75% of it's original price.


So, what purchase do you regret the most?

I regret buying my US GC. I sold it on eBay a month ago for about 50% of it's original price. Painful.

Frantic Flea on the SNES.

A few years ago, where my parents controlled all my purchases, I had the rare chance to get a £30 game... and it was between this and some Phantom game which previously got 70% in a mag. Suffice to say I chose the wrong one.

I liked it. I got it for about 5 quid though. Bomberman meets some PC bomb game where you have to cover the most squares with your bombs colour.

Crud.
Rubbish.


Don't buy it.

Legends of Wrestling 2 & Mary Kate and Ashley, they were free, but by far the worst games I've ever played.

Even for free gifts they're not worth the bother.

Actually, I enjoyed them more than Perfect Dark on Game Boy Color.

Jurassic Park 3: The DNA Factor on Game Boy Advance would be my answer if my review didn't win me a game, but because it did, I think my answer shall be Star Wars: Bounty Hunter and Jedi Knight 2 on GameCube.

The game I regret buying most ... probably Spyhunter.
It really does suck balls.
