Fuck this game. Absolute biggest disappointment I've ever played.

I got Lair two weeks early because the store broke street date hard, so I couldn't even turn around and sell that shit anywhere for a while - and at my first attempt to they wouldn't take it because they had too many copies being traded back in.
Also to a far lesser extent, Final Fantasy XIII, which while bad (at the time, I've warmed up to it some), wasn't fundamentally broken.
Nowadays I feel like there's less of an excuse for this to happen. We have so many ways to see videos, read opinions, try demos, Steam even has their refund policy, that I am pretty informed with every purchase I make, and don't make a full priced purchase unless I'm sure I'll like it. The only avenue for decision making we've lost is game rentals.
I still regret it.
Really the only one that comes to mind is this one:
What a pile of poo this game was. As a kid I returned it for a new copy at Toys R Us because for some reason Night Crawler's power in the game was to walk through solid objects. I thought this had to be a bug, because there was already an X-Man who had that power. Instead of a Night Crawler sprite they could have just used a Kitty Pride sprite (She was called Sprite at the time, so it would have been a Sprite sprite) Of course the new game had the same 'bug' as the old game and in general it sucked so I soon sold it off to a used video store.

Had some fun moments but it was mostly mediocre to bad. We only bought it because the local shop had a very limited selection on games. It was also very expensive.
At least we were able to exchange it later for Goldeneye and a very small extra fee. So worth it.
Star Fox Adventures
So much hate for this game and understandable but I loved it. I had such a great time with it.
I still regret it.
So brown / so boring.
You should try playing Sticker Star.
That's probably my vote. I was sooo excited for it. I just kept getting more and more angry that I actually paid money for that as I went through it and that very very rarely happens with me.
Skyward Sword
I mean I got the limited edition Wiimote so it's not all bad. Yet the actual game I found tiresome and riddled with control related problems. I should have waited.
