Biggest Gaming Regret?

[Aura]

For me, I have two.

1) I first got xbox live in 2005. Do you know how many fucking tags I could have made? I'm so mad at myself, but then again I didn't really know or care about OG's. Still sucks though. I could have been rich.

2) This ones much worse. I played sooo much halo 3 back in the day. I'm talking 15 hours a day for a whole summer. I played the game religiously. From so much playing I hit lots of insane, crazy phenomenal clips. I lost the hard drive. Everything I have to show for the time I put into the game is gone. Forever. It's depressing. I don't know if I'll ever get over it lol.

Share some stories, it could be just about anything guys. I also regret not attending an event when halo 3 was in it's prime but I was only like 15 so it would have been hard to anyway.

My number one regret was quiting trickshotting; me and @rude went for this challenge that boosted my channel i had 300+ views/gained me 100 subscribers. I had dare/soar on my friends list. Any single upload would average 200+ views. Then I quit for the summer. Came back and didn't like it anymore.

1) So, I had my xbox live account with all these insane stats, and with like a 4 or 6 year tenure I believe (Would have been 6-8 by today). Except in 2012 since XBOX was being a little bitch I needed to do all these passwords that I forgot. So, I called in and they said all they could to was restart the account.

Mine would have to be consistently dying one kill short of a MOAB in Modern Warfare 3. I can't even begin to describe how angry I would become. Looking back on the whole thing, it's actually pretty hilarious.

Every single time I prestiged on Call of Duty. I don't know why I kept doing it.

Quitting Runescape so I could work on my social life and school.
The friendships I had soon dissolved since I moved and school was perfectly fine.
Pretty sure I'd have a max account and a well stacked clan if I'd kept it up. However, Runescape is shit now anyway, so I suppose it doesn't really matter too much.

Hmm, It'd have to be deleting my Dark Souls I save,
I was so far into the game.

Haha these are good guys keep em' coming. Also, if I had kept putting gold on my first account it would have an 8 year tenure now :O fuck meeee

In all honesty, I'm on the fence with it. I really do regret how much time I played at one point. I lost some friends to it, shit was like crack. One of the reasons my skateboarding stopped at a point, it's ridiculous. Looking back now, I realize how dumb that truly was, although I'm not sure if I can say I fully regret it. Without it, I'd probably never met some of the really cool people I have through FK and Xbox and learned as much as I have.

"Time you enjoyed wasting wasn't wasted at all."

I'm sure many people here, including myself, feel the sane way to a degree.

Wow! I got an xbox in 2007 and I regret not taking names but you got one 2005!? Yeah you could of got some insane tags haha but other than that I regret getting reset on Black Ops 1 due to spawn trapping I put a lot of time into that game and lost it all due to a couple hours of trapping lol or losing my Skyrim save!
