Have You Ever Bought A Game You Couldn't Play?

Diablo: me playing alone = 40fps, for each person that joins the game (minus)-517fps ...No idea why.
Guild Wars 1 when it came out, then got a desktop and I could run it, almost 1 year later, and now same with GW2, got it cant run it past 5fps :D upgrading desktop.
Mass Effect 1 playable but ~15-25fps, on 2 I get over 30. And tried Just Cause 2 I gotta upgrade as well.

Saints Row 2 is so poorly optimized I had to wait years to play it after buying it. Even now Saints Row 3 runs smoother than SR2! What a disgrace.

Just Cause 2

The witcher xD

Diablo 3

Portal 2 for PC. Yes, I'm serious. I had to take it back to Gamestop and the gal there had pity on me and gave me an xbox copy instead.

So far my PC meets at least the minimum requirements for The Witcher 2 but my good that lag is so friggin bad.

Payday: The Heist. But i've read that a lot of people can't get that game to work for them because of some bug. Also, Quantum Conundrum runs very slow on my laptop to the point where its not playable. I'll just have to wait till i get a better computer.

I have quite a few games That I can't really play because my computer can't handle it. I hardly play both left 4 dead games because I can only get them to play at 15 fps on lowest settings. There's also Amnesia, which I can't play at all and Saint's Row 2 which is such a terrible port that I went out and bought it for the 360. I really feel bad about those two because they were gifts from some of my steam friends and I can't help but feel that they were wasted by giving them to me. I really need to upgrade but I'm too poor right now.

black ops on the pc... took me 3 DAYS 2 INSTALL AND IT NEVER WORKED
so i replaced it w/ a ps3 vrsn :D

Mirror's Edge and X3: Terran Conflict when i had a really bad pc.

Doom 3, it had cdkey issue on Steam but it's now fixed.

Need For Speed:SHIFT, my screen went black after 1-2 minutes of gameplay and have to manually reboot. I've got other series of NFS and they all worked fine except this one, guess it's something related to my graphic card.

Kane & Lynch 2: Dog Days, sometimes it just crashed in-game for no reason, I have to 'verify integrity of game cache' to fix this issue.

amnesia and global ops:commando libya

well that was gifted but ill say
Splinter cell:conviction

...too much lags for my old comp xD

BF3.
BTW, I didn't bought it, a friend gifted it to me :)
I need a new processor to play it, but before that I need to giveaway something.

During the last Holidays i bought many game I couldn't run, but I was waiting the delivery of the new video card so I wasn't truly unprepared xD

But time ago, when I was only a newbie about PC world (first PC), I bought Black & White which couldn't run and made me to discover the importance of a good graphic card.

Yea Magicka

I bought Super Mario RPG but my SNES died.

Most of the games I have...

Crysis on release

Age of Empires 2 - The Conqueors

Was my first PC game and I didn't know it was an expansion and needed the base game xD

Well, I have lots :v Hoping to make a new computer that will run them all soon.

L.A. Noire, but it works now

Just cause 2 :( . My could handle it if I had a new graphics card but I really don't know which one to get for my PC.
