YellowDragon Posted September 17, 2017 Share Posted September 17, 2017 This can be anything be it video games, devices, phones, movies, albums, ect. I feel one of the biggest flops as of late has been Destiny. That game was just so hyped that when it finally came out (saying it would be a 10 year game), it lasted 2 years and basically peaked in the first year. Traaaaash.

elmZ Posted September 17, 2017 Share Posted September 17, 2017 The end of the world in 2000 followed by the end of the world in 2012. I think we have one of these a year now at this point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tadp0le Posted September 19, 2017 Share Posted September 19, 2017 No Man's Sky was the most over priced and over-hyped piece of crap seen in the gaming industry for the last 10 years. So yeah, that makes my list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was one of those kids growing up where my parents planned what I did and where I was going to college. I went, but I dropped out. Was a fun Christmas that year. lol 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jamesie Posted September 29, 2017 Share Posted September 29, 2017 Damn....memories! I had one set of ideas (who doesn't want to be a fighter pilot growing up after watching crap like Airwolf, Topgun, etc). while my parents of course had similar ideas but in more practical routes (plumber, electrician, etc.). Then there was the ultimate option: live at home while Ma and Pa pay for everything, leave you to do whatever it is you felt you needed to do to "find" yourself and then just support you when you had discovered online gaming that allowed you to never leave the house. I eventually chose neither option (because two of them were never really options anyway with the third being ruled out because I'm blind as a bat). Back on topic I remember always wanting to get the N-Gage thing that was a mix of a cell phone and a hand-held gaming console. It was too expensive (and hard to get hold of locally) at the time but I still wanted one with a passion. It did appear to fail someone badly though so I should probably be thankful for living in a shit-hole country lol. It had bomberman dammit! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It wasn't a phone though it was a handheld something that can go online I think. I can't remember what it was called but it flopped harder than a box of bricks. My mom actually got me one. I only ever used it to play wheel of fortune. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Helena Posted October 2, 2017 Share Posted October 2, 2017 The apple that looked like a coffee machine that had made love with an ATM. 20th Anniversary Mac (1996-1997) Apple's Twentieth Anniversary Macintosh is a limited-edition personal computer that was released in celebration of the company's 20th birthday. It cost almost $8,000. Despite its poor sales, the TAM remains a popular item amongst dedicated Macintosh collectors. As of 2010, complete working machines with boxes were selling for $1,000.
