Poor engine would be Swtor or Aoc.
Rift, war and wow also but to a lesser degree than swtor

Poor engine are you basing this off looks/visuals? In all honesty your not going to come across a more polished engine than WoW. They have had 8 years to polish it for crying out loud. Big difference from the way things look and how the engine is designed/works.

Wasted money and time on :

Left 4 Dead

Left 4 Dead 2

Half Life

all ended with exe errors after updates with NO fix.

Translation Valve games BLOW.

The performance isn't great, it's cpu bound and bottlenecked through forcing multiple calculation through a sotware shader. Overused Dx9 with a brute force attempt to make it work. The according sliders to lessen the load on these are missing too.

In fact when they have to completly remove whole effects just to get the performance to acceptable levels it says it all. This game should never have release with just a dx9 client.

The (lacking) visual fidelity compared to the requirements make bad performance as an result. It may run fluid on my i7-3930k @ 4.5ghz, doesn't mean it has good performance. Sure it's not swtor's level of failure.

Just Dance 3.

Oh, you meant MMO's? None, there's something good about every one of them to me, yes...even SWTOR. And I kinda hate SWTOR.

I know it's hard to believe people don't like your game of choice, but even with 400 hours played I think it was a waste of money.

MMOs are supposed to last a long time, GW2 lasted a month and that was with me trying every way possible to enjoy it, hence the 400 hours played.

GW2 - biggest MMO disappointment since Warhammer online

D3 - I enjoyed it for about a month but compared to D2 that lasted 2-3 years it's a huge letdown.

I paid the $199 for TSW lifetime gladly (and didn't have to pay anything for the game).  I still play it and they have new content constantly coming through.

D3 was a terrible waste of money.  Biggest disappointment of the year, BY FAR.

GW2 was a waste - I was hoping for something new and got the same old thing in a camoflage package.

MoP is a decent expansion, but truthfully, I just couldn't get back into the game.  I'm over it.  So, that's a waste too.

1. TWS lifetime. In fairness, I really liked the game for a few months, but a "lifetime" worth, it was not.

2. WarZ. What MMO charges you money to join/form a clan? Really?

3. Rift. Looked cool, sounded cool, never opened the box.

More then 3 for me

-D3

-Tera

-The Secret World

-WoW MoP

-Halo 4 (Xbox)

-GW 2

-SWTOR

-warZ

 That's sucks its actually a good game and Trion is awesome

Go to greenmangaming and use the 25% voucher on a 30 day game time card :D

only 2  for me,

Diablo 3

WoW expension

In 2012?, thats easy. 

1) TERA

2) D3

3) GW2 

My waste was WoW until I got sick of it (again). 

My BIGGEST waste was Tera, wow, what a POS that was. The only saving grace that game has is the sexy outfits, but that's overshadowed by the horribly over-sized weapons.

None, since I made informed decisions and didnt have unrealistic expectations.

Although I nearly fell for the Rift expansion with all the advertising going on, glad I didn't since I came to my senses and remembered what a bunch of supermacro'ed crap it was.

Now Trion are sending desperate emails using my old character and guild data to sway my emotions, obviously Storm Legion didn't sell very well for them.

That is over 13 hours a day for a whole month. If you weren't enjoying it you should probably seek professional help.

Diablo 3...

Every other "waste" pales in comparison to the pile of crap Diablo 3 was. That game would make an Arizona beachside condo look like a fine deal.
