I've never finished any of the GTA games. They're fun in tehir own right and ive gotten many hours of play out of most of them. I just never got around to completing any of them. I guess they get to a point where it gets to the escorts or timed car missions with difficult objectives based on spastic controller schemes i just give up. Oh well.
Star Ocean: The Second Story:
I got all the way to the end boss, saved my game right before going through the door that leads to the fight and then stopped playing because I had to go to work.
13 years later I've never gone through that door.
I have the game in my case, I have the memory card with the save game, I just never bothered taking those last few steps.
Also Zone of the Enders: 2nd Runner but that's more straightforward. There's a boss that I just can't beat.

Yeah that and fighting what seemed like the entire nations mafia population in the sewer with a frickin flame thrower and clumsy combat mechanics. almost wish I hadn't finished it, I would certainly have a higher opinion of the game.RJ 17 said:
My personal 2 are Dark Souls and Skyrim.
Loved the gameplay of Dark Souls but it didn't so much have a story as it did lore that you discovered and no characters worth mentioning. This just eventually just wore me out.
Skyrim never finished the main quest. Got going on some side stuff and never bothered to finish. The higher difficulty only turned enemies into damage sponges, most battles I never thought about healing and was selling at least 30 potions for every one I used. Just became a boring slog, I have thought about turning the difficulty down and speeding through the rest of the game, haven't yet.
Never could do a second play through of MGS2 even though I loved it the first time.
Basically any game that is too sandboxy, I get bored without any direction and like to have a cohesive story.
Never got the the end of Silent Hill 2 either, not for it being a bad game.

Yeah, that's pretty much where I'm at with that game. I was really enjoying it up until "that thing" happens in the Vice mission that just seems so forced, like something a character that's supposed to be as straight-laced and morally superior like Cole (think that's what the main character's name wasBrown_Coat117 said:
) would never, ever do...but he does it anyway and starts the downward spiral of the game.And yeah, that final mission was absolutely nuts, and not in the fun way. xP
Well, pretty much every game I've ever played I'll be going for 100% completion but lose interest at some point along the way.
As far as actually completing a game, Portal is the one that comes to mind most often. Loved the puzzles and level design, but for some reason I just couldn't get through the game without getting distracted by another game. What's worse is that I actually got to the last level when I last played it.
I guess I could also put down Oblivion. Never did complete the main quest even after 100+ hours. I was too interested in doing other stuff, particularly the Mage's Guild story, to really focus on the main story.

Never beat Heartgold. Especially sad considering that Pokemon Gold was the first game I ever owned. I just can't stand regular Pokemon games anymore. Too repetitive and easy. Pokemon Stadium is where it's at.
Oh my god, here's the list:
Braid
Amnesia: The Dark Descent
World of Goo
Super Meat Boy
Limbo
Thief Gold
Far Cry 3
Skyrim
The fact that I didn't finish any of these should tell you a lot about my attention span. It doesn't help that I got most of them through Steam sales and as such placed less value on them.

The Walking Dead.
Playing through it at a decent pace, bought the game as a whole so had all the episodes but when I was maybe halfway through Episode 4, the game crashed or something so ALL of my saves were just deleted, I could start from episode 4 again but all my choices from the episodes before would be forgotten so I haven't managed to work up the effort to start up again. It's a real shame, I was really invested in it before that.

Considering your skeevy avatar, i don't think you are the one to judge his opinions about a pokemon game.Ratties said:
Now, On topic:
I suppose i never finished the first Bioshock...or any of the fable games.
Fable because i got bored and Bioshock because...well...i don't remember.
until recently I hadn't played Darksiders 2 and have had in wrapped since it was released, and same deal with Hitman: Absolution except the whole playing it part. Demon's souls because other games came out and i kinda forgot about it. Vanquish I started but found sam's voice annoying. Skyrim and Oblivion as I get side-tracked with side missions and exploring (god help me if I had them on PC and started adding player made content into that mix!). and i think thats it, though i have to say i rarely ever 100% a game, I'm not really into the whole collecting 1000 of these items since GTAIV screwed me over with the pigeons (says I had 199 but all 200 locations were clear).
