Games you COULDN'T finish

What I want to know is games you couldnt finish for a reason other than they were bad/you didnt like them. Maybe they were too difficult? Maybe they were too scary? Give me some reasons.

Mine are:

Dead Space - I got to chapter 10 and I was just afraid to go on lol. I am planning to restart though, with the intention of finishing it

Fatal Frame II - this game scares me ****less. Plus I want to change the controls when in camera mode so that I can swap the stick control. It's jarring the way it is now (right stick for movement, left stick for camera aiming when in first person mode which is the opposite of standard FPS controls).

Resident Evil Remake - the controls were difficult to grasp, but more than that, the limited saves. I am a save junkie (I save usually two or three times more than other people do) because I fear losing progress. The idea of limited saves pissed me off, but if someone could ever give me a diffinitive number of ink ribbons you find in the game, I might give it another try

Resident Evil 4 - this one actually shouldnt be on my list, but I am putting it up there because it took me two years to beat it. For some reason, I would reach the first island level, and just not want to go on. Now that I have, I have completed the game yet again, and plan to start yet another play through either tonight or tomorrow

Ninja Gaiden Sigma - such a challenging game, and also I did a stupid thing and looked at the chapters to come. Now I am scared of all those boss battles. However, I think I am going to restart the game in Ninja Dog mode so I can beat it once, and then beat it again on a higher difficulty.

Silent Hill 3 - I dunno, this game just kind of didnt grow on me. After I beat Silent Hill 2, this game just seemed to fall short, but I plan to give it another go soon.

and last but not least Doom 3 and Resurrection of Evil - these games just freaked me out. Having to switch between my flashlight and my gun was freaky, and at times kind of annoying. It's just a hard game in my opinion. Not sure if I will ever get back to it.

So what about you guys?

Zelda II: Link's Adventure... I play it for awhile and get to the point where I say "**** it."

When I say Metroid Prime the word snore comes to mind. Which is why I never bothered finishing it.Wilfred_Owen

Fable 2-just didnt have it in me to complete it

Oblivion-Didnt have that "epic" feel morrowind had

The Witcher-dont want to finish it just in case I never play it again, so I'm just slowly playing through it.

I'll admit, I've got a bad habit for not finishing games. It's like I reach the very last hour of gameplay, and BAM, all my interest in the game is gone and I never play the single player again. The ones I can remember now are:

Mario Kart DS: I put HUNDREDS, and I mean literally hundreds, of hours into this game online. I never completely beat it after unlocking mirror mode.

Call of Duty 2 (Xbox 360): I'm on the final level, but I just don't feel like playing anymore.

Phoenix Wright (DS): I love this game so much, but on the final level one day I couldn't figure out what to do so I stopped playing. Now I've since forgotten most of the story involved with the case, so I'd have to restart the whole case which I don't want to do.

Phoenix Wright Justice for All (DS): I thought the second case was spectacular, but then stopped in the middle of the third case because I'm finding it boring.

Midnight Club Los Angeles (Xbox 360): It was a very fun game in the beginning, but then after a while I got really bored of it, and thought the cars handled to "slippery." Sold it just yesterday.

Call of Duty 3 (Wii): Just didn't like the game at all, and sold it soon after.

Super Monkey Ball Banana Blitz (Wii): Once again, got bored of it before it finished. Sold...

The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker (GCB): I nearly finished the game, but felt all the sailing and such was getting tedious. Then, I found I had to go through some ridiculous thing where I had to kill a zillion enemies, and gave up.

Medal of Honor: Allied Assault (PC): I don't know, I'm on the last mission and just stopped, then played online for dozens of hourse (so considering I bought the game for only a couple buck I definitely got my money's worth).

Metroid Prime (GCB): After I figured out how much backtracking I was in for in the middle of the game... well I just gave up. I have pretty much explored every area though, and it's funny that after a while you end up knowing every single detail of the maps. I bet I could still navigate through it easily.

There are probably others, but I already feel embarrassed enough with my list as it is. Usually I don't lose much money since I just resell games, but this is just a problem of mine. I mean, I have beaten lots of games fully, including The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess which took 50 hours for me to beat, Mario Galaxy (yes including the "extra"), Mario Sunshine, COD4, and so on. But I have a tendency to stop playing when even slightly bored of the game and never coming back.

X-Com: Terror from the Deep - Its freakishly hard.

Starflight - Its freakishly hard.

Indiana Jones and the Emperor's Tomb - There is a level near the end that requires you to jump over some hidden pits while being chased by a tank. Your jumps must be timed perfectly and a land perferctly. If you're even slightly off you fail. I despise these kinds of puzzles.

Simpon's Hit and Run - Grandpa's jeep is junk.

Indiana Jones and the Emperor's Tomb - There is a level near the end that requires you to jump over some hidden pits while being chased by a tank. Your jumps must be timed perfectly and a land perferctly. If you're even slightly off you fail. Drosa

topspin 2 and now topspin 3. The single player is too hard once you get past the early tourneys.

Fracture - couldn't beat last boss.

Barely finished Assassin's Creed - just about put me to sleep. run to city, gather info, kill target, run to different city, gather info, kill target, repeat 7x, beat final boss. uuuuuuuuugggggggggghhhhhhhh!!

Super Mario 64 (too boring due to lack of difficulty)

Zelda: Ocarina of Time (ditto)

Tokobot Plus (way too buggy and unpolished for its own good)

Shadow of the Colossus (the camera gave me a headache)

True Crime : Streets of L.A. - The last fight with the chinese general is murder.Treflis

Hahahahahaha agreed. I beat it the other (2?) ways, but that chinese dude is like Bruce Lee reincarnated.

True Crime : New York City - I really did not like this sequel, mainly because I felt that all of the little added features were just gimmicks and didn't really help add anything new to the game.

Marvel : Ultimate Alliance - To be honest, I only played this game for achievements because it came with my 360. After my game refused to give me any achievements for beating Enchantress and Executioner and beating Ysmir, I shut it off and haven't taken it out of the case since.

Viva Piñata - Though it's not exactly possible to "beat" this game, I stopped playing after I once again fulfilled the requirements for an achievement and was not rewarded with the 20G.

My thoughts on some that have already been posted...

You guys who havn't finished Silent Hill 2 and 3 are missing out, they are some of the greatest games ever made and would be near the top of my top 10 list if I ever made one (I really should make one...). I have finished Silent Hill 2 34 times and Silent Hill 3 37 times. I will be replaying them again shortly, they never get old.

Top Spin 3? I just got Top Spin 2...

Super Mario 64 is a great game, you should at least get the minimum number of stars and finish the last Bowser.

The last game that I couldn't finish was Genji: Days of the Blade. I am in a situation where I basically have half of a health bar and need to take on an entire army... Maybe if I made multiple saves this wouldn't happen. Also, the game is so painfully mediocre I really don't feel like restarting. Maybe in a few years eh?

Way too many to list, but heres a few

I never finished a SMB game

Never finished a GTA game

Never finished a Gran Turismo game

The Phantom Hourglass: Cannot get into that game. And I am a Zelda nut.MetalGearRex007

Burnout - Im not a big fan of realistic racing games and I only got it because it was 5 pounds. Neadless to say I hated it from the start and struggled on untill I got the B licence and gave up.

So far its the only one this generation (Out of about 25 athlough I havn't finished LBP or Resistance 2 yet I only got them for Christmas and have exams starting Wedensday and have no time to play them atm). But I mean on my ps1/2 N64 SNES and Gamecube there where a fair few games i didn't finish due to them being to complex for my age.

Hated the first Far Cry. But the 2nd one was great, in my opinion.

Assassin's Creed - Stopped playing it after about mid-memory block 4 to play some new games, didn't even come back to it until recently. I manage to finish up memory block 4 and do some of 5 but I had bought Fallout 3 about a day earlier and just couldn't enjoy AC at all with it sitting next to me. Doubt I'll end up going back to it as F3 will last a longwhile.

Oblivion: Shivering Isles - Watched various people complete it and played a couple of hours of it before I even started it on my own profile, the slow pace at the beginning of SI just results in me getting bored too quickly and messing around. I hope to finish it at some point though.

FFVII - I actually haven't finished it.. gotten to Sephiroth twice and lost after countless tries (Seriously who blows up the universe and rebuilds it just to do it again 10X!?), no doubt due to not levelling enough. I just can't start it again, everytime I look back and think about going through all three discs again it just feels grueling and tedious.

There was a Lufia game on the GBA I never finished. I got somewhat far, but got REALLY lost, and then I just ;ost interest in it.

Wild Arms XF on the PSP, I just couldn't get into the gameplay.

Earthbound, i never beat this game myself, I just got really lost at one point, started playing other games and never went back to it.I've seen my older brother go through the later parts of the game, though, and saw him fight Giygas, so I got a genral idea of the whole game. :P
