Acts of Stupidity in The Art of Purchasing

Back in the old days before the internet, you had to rely on
gaming mags and word of mouth for reviews, so there's would
always be a chance of a game being poor. The games I was
most disapointed in were the ones I finished the day I got
them.

I paid $85 for Crusin USA, all the N64 games when they first
came out in such short supplies had obcense prices.

Ok guys, sit down for this one.

I'm sure this might even ruin my status as a gamer when I let this one slip out.

I, a year or so back when Rayman 3 was coming out, snagged Rayman Arena* for GameCube thinking that it was the third game in the series. I remembered it having a subtitle and "Arena" just sounded like it could be it.

And then I played it. And found the truth.

Please, don't stone me. I didn't know!:xx: :xx:



*Please let it be known and stated that Giga Power considers Rayman Arena to be the worst game ever made.-The management

I somehow managed to sell it for $25+ back in 2001.

Damn! Not much of a return profit, hope you got a used game that plays better.

Can't get money from mom, can't get a job, can't blame him.

Fatal Fury for the SNES. I liked Art of Fighting for the SNES, so I thought FF might be decent as well.

I almost cried when I got home. Serious.

DAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAMN!

:lol:

Pac-Man for the 2600.... :(

E.T. for the 2600... well, it was next to nothing price-wise... Also, Pac-Man for the 2600, same deal.

Chameleon Twist for N64. That is an awful game. And I paid $70+tax for it at Best Buy.

PowerBlade on the NES. Used money my brother and I pretty much never had to buy that crap.


N64 Crusin USA $70 I think. What the fuck happened to the deer you could run over??

Sold the PS2 version of Mortal Kombat Trilogy to trade in for the N64's no loading version. How was I suppose to know the 64 version sucked?

What's up with $70+ N64 games? Maybe my town just sucks, but I got it Crusin' USA for $40 only a little while after release.
