hmmm, yes and no. i haven't actually been hyped up about anything besides nova, and i think that delivered quite well.
Totally I absolutely HATE Fieldrunners. Everyone was raving about it so I decided to take a leap of faith and I bought it... Ugh. What were people raving about? Both geo-defense games are 1000x better than Fieldrunners.
1. Hill Billy(I know it's older but that one really pissed me off). 2. Sim City(same deal has Hill Billy) 3. Assassins Creed 1 4. Brothers in Arm 1 5. Resident Evil 4(this bothers me because with Gamelofts controls it would beat every game in the store) 6. NOVA There's some others but they were $2 or less, so I'll be nice. Like some others have said, I've learned to research the shit out of a game before clicking buy.
loved that one but BIA 2 i regret, its boring compared to the other FPSs, i could've got GTA:CW or verruckt, but no, i waited for BIA2 instead, and i couldve got GTA when it was on sale as well, it was a dollar cheaper than BIA2, and verruckt is considerably cheaper, man was i stupid
Pocket God (at least my 3 year old daughter has fun with it) MiniSquadron Flight Control (cool, I can draw lines ../yawn) Battle Bears Aera (cant get the controls down, lost interest trying) Assassins Creed 2 (pretty .but boring) Doodle Army (controls were too annoying to continue trying) Glyder 2 (ok fly around and gather 106 glowy things only 1026 left to find!!!) Graal Online (yeah its free .but what the h#$% am I supposed to do here?) TheHorribleVikings (controls are annoying) Jet Car Stunts (5 levels in not sure when the fun starts) Layrinth 2 (lots of levels is cool but they all feel the same after a while) Madden 2010 (framerate was horrible) Stair Dismount (the 8ish levels get old fast need more levels) Zen Bound (ZZzzzzz ..)
I havent played some games on my iPod for more than 5 minutes. I wish I didn't buy them at all. These games are Driver, Hawx, Ravensword, Dungeon hunter and Civ Rev. These games are not very bad but I just don't have time to play them so I would have been better off without them. That's about 25$ moneywaste, could have bought Fable 2, halo wars or Cysis with that money. Oh and I don't understand why people like pocket god, flight control or harbor master either. Oh wow everyone tells me to but these games, just 1$! Now Ive spent at least 5 dollars on these stupid games.
Pocket God: Fun for about 5 minutes then just gets boring but considering how much time the creator spends on improving the game, .99 cents is a pretty good price for it. Guerrilla Bob: I got it for only $.99 but the game just doesnt interest me too much, and i dont really find it fun and just bought into the hype. Zombieville: i played it a few times got to around level 30 unlocked all the weapons within a couple hours or less and it just got EXTREMELY REPETITIVE. Alive 4 Ever: I like Zombie games but shooting the Zombies in this game just doesnt feel as satisfying as it should. I played it for about 30 minutes and havent felt the urge to play it again. NBA Live: Gameplay is extremely bad and limited, just feels sloppy.
I regret buying Kroll. Great graphics but absolutely no gameplay value. It's just a button basher (or screen basher) and i paid $7 for it Also I generally avoid first person shooters as well as they normally disappoint. In the end of the day it's a phone not an Xbox.
oh good lord definitely Sims 3. it was so horrific that I couldn't stand 5minutes of it the moment I spent 10seconds on the character customization screen. I will be fair though because I mostly was comparing it to the PC version having played it previously. it just sucked.
Whew! This is one of those moments I'm thankful that my games weren't that popular so no one would complain about it LOL. I've had no regrets whatsoever--everything I purchased have been all a learning experience for me but the least I played (and deleted soon after purchase) was unfortunately, Pocket God. Guess it wasn't really my cup of tea.
Pocket God- I just don't get it. Red Conquest- Is there an actual storyline? Too difficult to learn for an iPhone game. I've got a life. Ferrari GT Evolution- Sucked in by the promise of online play and was too easy. Doom Classic- A great game but, seriously ID, fix the controls. See what Gameloft is doing. Also, no online play.
ah, way too many lets see pocketgod minigore any NGmoco game ever rogue planet actually my buying habits have changed, and i only buy 1 app a month, normally 99 cents, because i am waiting to buy an ipad and want to buy the ipad versions of Plants vs Zombies, Scrabble etc. I want to see if they will make exclusive ones..so I stopped buying apps, and my wallet loves me
The creeps were a disapointment, my brute was really bad, and alive 4 ever it looked cool but was boring.
Doodle Jump - This game is waaaaaaayyyyyy over rated. Spore Origins - One of the first I bought....meh. Gangstar - I really wanted to like it but it is just too janky. I really research everything I buy now, plus it seems that I can't really trust the threads on TA for game impressions anymore. People get so hyped on the crappiest games. Sometimes I just don't get how some of these games are so popular....I'm looking at you Doodle Jump. I'm actually in the process of going through all my games, playing them as long as I can and if they don't pass my new higher standards they get the boot.
Really regretted? No, not at the prices apps go for on the app store. I expect most people waste more than $5-$10 (let alone 99c) during their weekly shopping, and no one I know really thinks anything of it or regret it for more than a split-second. If it were a $60 Xbox game, I could understand it more.
