Biggest waste of money Steam games (by hours played)

MikeKay1976

I have over 500 titles in my library i think so its a tough call. The 2 which stand out for me are la noire and alien isolation.

La noire because i bought on xbox, then it came out on pc so i sold it unplayed at a loss and bought on pc.

I may have installed it but never played it.

Alien isolation i bought close to launch with the season pass for vr. Played the "free" ripley content and needed new trousers for about an hr. A short time after buying a software update meant it no longer worked in vr so i backburnered waiting for a fix. Once you play that in vr the notion of playing on a monitor does not compute.

I have never seen the main game!

Alien Isolation. The game I owned on Xbox and ps4 and never played. I really should as everyone I come across raves about it.

Scary jumpy game mate. So if you're a big girl like that, I'd leave it well alone.

Lol no I do like games like that. Still I'm trying to get my meds sorted for my high blood pressure so maybe I should wait until I have that at a decent level first. It's averaging 160/110 at the moment :/

Cha1ky

Yeah get that sorted mate!!

Think my blood pressure meds need doubling as mines creeping up again

Same with mine. Docs keep messing me around and im going round in circles. Not to worry. I'm tending to play less stressful games like golf and gta. Nothing too taxing lol.

Jeeeez! That's way into the hypertension region!

I think you should take a cue from Valve and have one of these fitted to release some pressure!

I've bought 39 steam games and only have 15 installed. I rarely play most of those. I've wasted so much money on steam games. The latest being golf club 2.
Is there any wonder that so many pirate PC games when there's so much over priced rubbish around. Yes I've played some great games on steam but the vast majority have been sub standard

Currently I have 1360 steam games in my library mainly thanks to bundles.  My completed category is less than 50

You need to balance what you paid vs time. If you picked a game up for £1 and didn't play it then it's less a waste than £30 game you played for 2hrs.

I've loads of games barely touched but ones like left for dead that I've only a couple of hours are bad for me since they were bought on release for full price
