X3: Reunion is one that comes to mind. I had to give it up for awhile because I was WAY too addicted. Seriously, there were a few nights on the weekends that I wouldn't go out because I just wanted to keep playing. I got back to playing it but had to set limits as to how much I would play.

Star Ocean 3. Seriously, I got to the room with the last boss then I left for Canada from Europe, it was a PAL ps2 and I didn't want to bother with it. The ROOM WITH THE BOSS. I had every single item from crafting too. That makes me mad. Someday I'm going to buy that game and beat it. that game was really fun, though the triple kick to triple kick chain was cheap.

Holy crap! You better get moving! I'd start with System Shock 2, then Diablo II, then go on from there.

I have more than about hundred or so titles in my library I've done that (not b/c it was too hard and I got stuck, more like I became bored and stopped playing it for a week, then the week became a month, and then I just forgot about it until I looked back at the case so time later).

Since I'm making a review site now though I've tried to kick that habit. I need as much content as possible so I've gone back now (Made a list) and have tried to weed my way through the games I never finished. LOL hell there are games I have that aren't even played yet and their months/years old. :P

Yeah, I know I have to get moving. Most of those games are must plays. The sad thing is, I took on too many at a time and am continually picking up new ones before I finish old ones. I just hope I can at least knock half that list out before the end of July.

Yup same issue, buying too many games too close together. You want to finish the old one, but you also want to try the one you just bought. Then you get wrapped up in the new one and the old one takes a place on your shelf collecting dust.

I've got plenty of games, I currently have three that I'm working on

Kingdom Hearts- On the final boss and the stupid guy just won't die and when he does die, another form shows up out of nowhere!

Xenosaga Episode 1-I was stuck on the boss that you have to beat once with Shion and once with Jr. I finally beat the guy yesterday and now I'm resuming my adventure.

Dark Cloud 2-Got out of the first town, ended up in a forest, got bored/frustrated left it.

GTA: San Andreas, I had waaayyyy too much trouble with the flight training. It took me well over a year to complete the main story.

Escape From Butcher Bay took me way too long as well.

I've done that with way, way, WAY too many games. Odds are about two-thirds of the games in my collection I haven't beaten.
Heck, I probably haven't even played a dozen or so games in my collection. I need to get back to playing!

MGS 2: Sons of Liberty.

I can not enjoy or immerse myself into this game at all. I'm at the part when you have to disarm the C4 explosives planted on the oil rig or whatever, I really don't see why this game is talked about so much.

Lots of games.

Zelda TP - just got tired half way through.

Oblivion - 60-70 hours just didn't finish it.

Condemned - Gamebreaking glitch near the end destroyed my saves.

Some off the top of my head. Most games I just get burned out too fast and don't really want to finish.
