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.

The PSOne was excellent - as were the Driver and Smackdown series'. Besides, you completelty undermimed your argument by praising the Die Hard Triloguy.

Animal Crossing - someone explain why this is good or fun ?

Second place goes to the Sims on Xbox - dull beyond belief

Third place Dark Angel on Xbox - A warning to those who would buy a game before reading a review.

Die hard was still style over content. One third of the content was good.
And I got the game for free. :P

Driver is dull and repetitive.
Smack down is a joke compared to Aki's wrestling engine.

Star wars jedi knight II, its really good on the PC but its crap on the GC. I sold it for less than 50% of the price i bourght it 'cus no-one wanted to buy it (I can't blame them). You might like this game........................but only if you find walking round grey rooms pressing switches for an hour or 2........
