THIS. I felt that way about so many games lately. I'm getting to the point where if it costs more than $30 or isn't part of a series I know I'll like, I'm not going to buy it.

I'm also bothered by not having achievements on some Xbox 360 games. Some are literally imposible for me to get, but I still feel bad, like I haven't completed the games...

I try before I buy on consoles where that is possible. :D

Honestly, if I'm playing a game and just do not like it, I sell it. Done. :)

Yes. But, if I buy a game for, let's say, $50, and sell it back a week later, for ~$30 (could get more or less), am I really doing any good? I just lost money! And I didn't neccesarily get it back in playtime. It sucks!

Live and learn. You're either wasting money or wasting time. I would rather let a few dollars go to waste and move on.

I base many of my purchasing decisions on how hot the anime girls in the game are.

Much easier to say when you have a job.

Why did you ask about these three specifically? Are they known for being bad or something? I did say "all of them". But I guess I should have said "All of them except COD: Roads to Victory".

I have never played the PC version of any COD game, but I want to play the PC version of "Big Red One" since a lot of people have told me that it is much better than the PS2 version, which is the one I own (and enjoyed). I'll probably never get around to it. I was content with the PS2 version.
There is no PC version of Big Red One. You're probably thinking of Call of Duty 2 (minus the BRO subtitle), which is a totally different (and far superior) game. And yes, Finest Hour, Big Red One, and 3 are known for being not so great (especially Finest Hour).
hashiriya1 wrote:3 was great. It was the first 'Western' game I bought for my PS3 back when it was released. I haven't played any other version other than the PS3 version, but I imagine the PS3/360 version is better than the Wii, PS2 and oXBOX versions.
The 360 version is supposedly best, but I think the game is meh (and I bought it at launch and beat it multiple times). Treyarch has really improved over the years.

Same here, except I sell the games I discover I don't like. A big part of the reason I never buy downloads unless they're heavily discounted.
