That one game you could never finish...

[ZehMadScientist]

Shadow the Hedgehog,

That the game was horribad was a reason to drop it on itself, but I played it anyway. Then I came to the final boss and it was not entertaining, not testing your skills, just plain annoying and I tried twice and never touched the game after that.

Similar case with OutLand, but that game was in my opinion actually good, nice platforming and an actual challenge at times, but the final boss killed the game for me by being not epic nor fun, just annoying.

As others have said, Far Cry 2.

But because I got absolutely sick of clearing out the same darn road blockades time after time. I killed so many people in the same ones, that the local town would have been depopulated trying to 'restaff' them. It just got ridiculous after a while. Also, hunting for diamonds was just lame as hell.

 

[Solid Reece]

The first Ratchet and Clank.

Always died before the final boss one way or another.

So did I... Until I farmed 1.000.000 bolts and bought the RYNO!

OT: The last games I couldn't bother to finish was Brütal Legend and Yakuza 3.
Brütal Legend went from pretty fun to awful. RTS from third person perspective isn't very clever.
Yakuza 3 was just too dull. Kick some maffia boss' ass and then spend a few hours taking care of your kids problems. Over and over!

I think the ryno is 50,000 in the frist game

 

[Not-here-anymore]

Sonic Adventure. Because Big the Cat sucks. His levels were boring and difficult. Never a good combination.

 

[Iron Criterion]

Brink.

Couldn't get past day 2 on the security side because my god damn AI buddies couldn't give me ANY cover while I was trying to deliver the security card. Or whatever the hell I was doing.

I must say, that game set a record though, I'd never sold a game 3 days after getting it up until I got Brink.

i actually got something that can beat that i returned too human within 3 hours of purchasing it
OT: demon souls

Wow, somebody actually bought Too Human?

 

[ChickenZombie]

Morrowind and Fallout 3

I loved both of them, i loved all aspects of them. The problem is, it takes so much time to play through, and I like to do ALLL the missions, so I never feel the urge to get on them. I really like RPG's, but I dont tend to game in very long sessions, so I can't just hop onto Fallout for an hour and then get off. I have to get into the game, get moving and into it, play a bunch of missions for the immersion, and then get off. That takes me a long time.

 

[Mr. Eff_v1legacy]

Bioshock - a great game. I think I've just come to associate it with becoming violently ill after a few days home from school.
Siren - just frustratingly bad. I played it twice.
Obscure - okay game, but it glitched on me and I was unable to continue.
Haunting Ground - I don't remember why, but I recall not liking it.
Shadow Man - I got stuck assembling the pieces of the staff. I intend to finish it one day.

 

[Irriduccibilli]

I never finished Infamous. I just didnt think it was that fun. I have got it for a couple of months now, I just cant found my motivation to play it

well it was on sale for 20 buck and i believe everything deserves its fair shot to entertain me i was wrong in this instance

 

[Jakub324]

Fallout 3

A shame too. It had a lot going for it. But just so... bloody... monotonous.

I feel bored just thinking about it.

RAAAARGH
Fallout 3 is one game I can't STOP playing.

 

[Gametek]

Disgaea: I bored me to death about all the grinding.
Prinny for psp[bot of them]: the story was nice, but it was hard enough to rach massochism level.

 

[Ildecia]

final fantasy: crystal chronicles Crystal bearers.
i was nostalgic about the first one being better than average (because i had friends to co-op with) and thought they couldn't fuck it up too badly right?

no.

no map system, the combat was just awful, and the cinematics never ended. seriously, i dont want to wait 15 minutes between each actual gameplay section

for fuck's sake!

 

[Jakub324]

Logically, I shouldn't have played al the way through S.T.A.L.K.E.R. Shadow of Chernobyl.
Combat: Shit
Graphics: Shit

On to why I did play it:
Story: Decent
Cutscenes: Intriguing
Atmosphere: Fuckin' A!
Seriously, the city of Pripyat is a scary place, particularly in that big plaza in the middle.

 

[The Rockerfly]

Out of difficulty, never. I finished Guitar Hero 3 on expert, Ninja Gaiden 2 on normal, Black on expert, COD4 veteran, Halo series on Legendary, Vegas 1 and 2 on realistic. Anyone who complains games are too hard these days are wimps

Out of sheer dislike for the game, Morrowind yeah it may have been good for the day but it's brown, has a shit combat system, a lack of fast travel makes it tedious and I just can't get into it. I preferred Oblivion because the mechanics were considerably better

I also didn't finish Deus Ex but I played it far too late to enjoy it. It has not aged well but I am going to get the new one and try very hard to love it.

Final Fantasy XIII because it was shit, devoid of love and soul like the previous games. I was so hyped for it and crushed me and my childhood. Fuck you Square Enix

 

[ks1234]

Lets see...
The Witcher- It was soooo hard to get into the game but when I finally did I really enjoyed it... I made it all the way to the final boss fight (the bigass mage guy) and I just simply could NOT beat him, no matter what I did.
Far Cry 2- bc that game is just a massive amount of suck all rolled into one title.
Two Worlds II- Idk, I had lots of fun at first but... fuck that game.
And
GTA: San Andreas- Bc as someone stated above... I got sidetracked all of the time stealing bus' and throwing 'nades out of the windows while banging hookers and working out.

 

[wetfart]

GTA:4

The entire time I was playing I kept thinking to myself "Vice City is so much better. I should just go play that instead."

 

[Flailing Escapist]

Gah! Somebody beat me to Majora's Mask! Besides New Vegas which is in my "eventually" pile of games.
And I am the only person that ENJOYED Far Cry 2?
Sure it had several huge flaws, namely the constant, ridiculous hostile A.I. and the sheer size of the map. But I always thought the idea -> story (ha) -> buddies built up to a very good ending, well I thought the last half of the game was pretty good. Maybe thats just me.

..

Oh, and I've beaten Farcry 2 three times. XD

Edit: And I forgot to add final fantasy x-2, but the only reason I could play it for more than 5 minutes was because of it's sheer stupidity

 

[Fayathon]

Legend of Dragoon, which kinda pisses me off, but I was on the last boss when my data was erased, and I just don't have it in me to go back through all of that shit just to do that damned fight. I'll go back eventually, but it's still a bit of a sore spot for me.

 

[Enrathi]

Final Fantasy 13. I'm so near the end, but I'm stuck and the story and characters (other than Sazh, he was believable) just don't hold enough interest for me to either go out and grind to get some levels and beat the part I'm stuck at (last Eidelon) or at least give it a few more shots to get past.

 

[AJax_21]

Okami

I don't know. I quite liked it actually but after defeating Orochi and saving the world, the story continues and a new villain pops up for some reason. Lost interest and never continued.
