Gauntlet: Seven Sorrows. My sister and I gave up once we got to level three. The games was SO boring and the worst series in the Gauntlet franchise.

Not a this gen game, but I couldn't think of anything from this gen.

GTA4, Fallout 3, Dragon Age Origins & to a lesser extent, Oblivion. I didn't finish Oblivion, but I did enjoy myself. When all those gates showed up, I lost interest.

yeah, I couldn't finish Ballad of Gay Tony either, but mainly because I just lost interest in GTA IV itself, as far as being a part of GTA IV it was on par with that and Lost & Damned

KOTOR. Everyone claimed this was Biowares greatest RPG. I bought it, loaded it up and its dull, the characters are stiff, combat surprisingly is overly simple and boring, the RPG mechanics are lackluster, it's just an overall meh game.

Ragingbear505

Ehhmm the best RPG's Bioware ever made were the Baldurs Gate games. Not a single game they made which are also on consoles comes even close to the Baldurs Gate series.

Far Cry 2 I was way off on this one. It looked incredible, had some good reviews and was boring as all hell so I said forget it. Don't really plan to revisit it either.

Alan Wake- thanks to SW, my little lemming paws where rubbing together in anticipation for this game. It looks great, good story, etc., but at the end of the day, i was tired of flashlight/shooting the same bad guys over and over again. I'm a pretty patient gamer but just lost interest and wandered off chasing a butterfly or something. Assassins creed - beyond repetitive for me. I did enjoy and completed ac2 though. GTA4 - lack of mission checkpoints along with crappy cover controls was about all I could handle. GTA4 knew how to push my "RAGE" button. I just picked up GTA BOGT and loving it....I should give gta4 another shot.

Oblivion, I go back now and again thinking, OK this time I will complete it, but I just end up hunting deer. I had to force myself to complete Far Cry 2, which is a shame because the setting, driving and shooting i found quite fun, but the repetetive missions were just plain boring. I still haven't technically completed L4D2... I've played all the missions, just not all the way through.

Did you play it on a console?

Anyway, mine is RE5. Looked good from the begining, but it got really boring.

Assassin's Creed 1 and 2 has got to be the most horridly boring games of this gen. I had to force myself to finish the first game, and I couldn't stand the second game:

-Repetitive gameplay

-bad rpg elements

-Ezio sucks and not a believable assassin(more like a playboy turned wannabe assassin)

-random glitches

-bad framerate

-boring

-and more boring

  • Gears of War 2, I did finish it but damn was it medicore, and with hopes of getting addicted to the online... Online was trash.
  • GTA4 Liberty City Stories, it feels sooo outdated and it's only like 2 years old.

Demon's Souls. While I actually liked Demon's Souls, I felt like I was playing a single-player MMO and just got bored of it really fast. I'll likely pick up DS again in the future and give it another shot because I really enjoy the difficulty and the game-play.

FF13, I have fun playing it but it's just too much of a hassle to get back into it. Fallout 3, I REALLY enjoyed it for the first 5 hours or so, and then lost complete interest. New Vegas will probably hold me over for the entire game. :D Dragon Age, game starts out great, I like how the story plays it, combat's fun, but after meeting that Elf Assassin of a partner (Who's really cool) I just lost interest. I blame my imaginary ADD and not the games.tagyhag

Maybe you should just stay away from the RPG genre. LOL.

I have to agree regarding the DLC. I played about 1-2 hours of the game, and i just didn't enjoy it at all. GTA IV at first was fantastic, but when i went back to play the DLC, the game just didn't encourage me to get stuck in.

I felt the game really comes into it's own after getting off Taris. (first planet) for me - Metroid Prime Hunters. I just didn't like playing that type of game on the DS. much rather have that type of experience on PC or the wii.

I rented that game, played it for about half an hour, then returned it. I knew right away I wouldn't like it at all.

Dead Rising easily. I'm a huge zombie fan and thought this would have been the perfect game for me. Picked it up and couldn't have been more disappointed with the final product. The controls were terrible, the storyline was sub par, the gameplay mechanics were awful, and just nothing about the game drew me in. I hated the save system, the time limits were horrible, and I hated how a bag of chips took up the same inventory space as a sledge hammer. Then that same sledge hammer would kill 6 zombies and break becoming utterly useless to me. I have no hope for Dead Rising 2 since Capcom did so little to improve Lost Planet 2.kejigoto

I was about to make this exact post,but you beat me to it. I was incredibly excited for dead rising to come out and when I actually played it I completely hated it. Between the save system,the convicts in the hummer and the time limits for missions, I was ready to pull my hair out. I traded in to gamestop the same day I bought it.

I was actually shocked to see that so many people found it fun.

Probably talking around 80% of my game collection.

Maybe i'm just a different gamer, but I usually just play a game until I get bored and pick it up again once i'm in the mood.

But quite often the problem is I only give games about 3 quarters of an hour give or take, to grab me otherwise, I may never pick it back up. That was the problem with quite a few games this gen. Like Twighlight Princess at the beggining and Assasins Creed.

IM going to have to say Gears of War. It was the soul reason I bought a 360 at launch. FInished the game though, but never wanted to play it again. And never played it online. My oldest son plays it and the 2nd one though all the time and loves them.

Final Fantast XIII, not that it was bad but I kind of lost interest in it as I was starting to play other games more. Made it all the way to chapter 10 though.
