I have to admit to playing RE4 Wii, and Super Paper Mario most of the way through... and growing bored of them, and couldn't be bothered to finish.

I've also not finished Half Life 2... but I'm not ashamed, since I think it's way over-rated and a snoozefest for me.... Strange though, when I started HL2, at about 30-1 hr. into it... I was saying "Man this is the best FPS ever".... yeah that feeling didn't last long.

Veterngamer

I know what you mean :(

I did finish it though, and it's still top 10 for me, although I consider some sources to overrate it to death.

There's a considerable amount of RPG's that I have played a lot of but never had the time to finish off; I plan to finish most of them before the end of this summer though.

Paper Mario and Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door. I was both on the very last boss, but I didn't think I could beat them. Also Half-Life; ever since I got to the different world part and this giant headcrab chased me and killed me, I haven't played it since.

Front Mission 4. I don't know how far I was into the game, I enjoyed it but it just kept dragging on and on forever. Thief: Deadly Shadows is another. I stopped playing it even though I thoroughly enjoyed it for more unknown reasons.

I've got a couple...

First of all, MGS3. I know, I know, I know. I've said MGS4 is the best game I've ever played, and it is... and still didnt complete the game before it. What happened was my game had a glitch in it where Snake was losing life like he was poisoned or had an arrow stuck in him or something, but he was completely cured. His life just kept deminishing. So I never finished it, I just got the plot from YouTube, lol.

Also, Lair. Ya know, I really enjoyed this game quite a bit actually... until one mission. One mission where I see exactly what some reviewers were saying. The game is sometimes directionless, and that doesnt work well when there is a time limit. I seriously think it's a pretty good game, and that the controls are fine - it's the unclear mission objectives that kill it.

I never finished Silent Hill 2 for the PS2 either. That game was too hard or complicated in my opinion. I found myself running around circles, not doing anything. I might be better at it now, I'm a much more seasoned gamer than I was when I was 17, lol. That sounds weird but true.

And finally, GTA Vice City Stories for the PSP. I didnt like it as much as LCS, but also I got stuck on one mission and just cant bring myself to pick up my PSP for it again. And GTA has always been my favorite games. I'll get around to beating it eventually...

I cant think of any more, but I know I'm guilty of more.

EDIT: Oh yeah! Also Dead Rising, which is nuts because I absolutely love the game. The overtime mode just sucks in my opinion though. It's more frustrating than anything in my opinion... That game is such an unpolished gem. Just a few little things holding it back, like the timer, the save system, and the aiming system. Other than that, AAA in my book.

Had The Orange Box for months but only finished Portal and played TF2 online.... Still trying to finish HL2 (and then start Ep1 & Ep2)... Also did not manage to finish GTAIV (still at 19%) :)

But with MGSIV & MGO the above will have to wait for sometime...

Final Fantasy 10 :( got to the final boss, had all the special weapons (fully powered, too) just gave up. Deleted my file and sold the game too :(

Other than that, I've either beaten all of my games or am still playing them.

lol Wow that would suck.

I love the satisfaction of simply knowing the ending of a game. Like GTAIV, the fact I hadnt beat it kept me coming back. I mean, sure it's fun, but I probably wont ever replay the entire campaign again just because I know how it ends. If I play GTAIV, I'll probably just mess around in the city.

RE4 for Wii just doesn't do it for me and I have almost forced myself to play it but don't quite like or just can't get use to the Wiimote for games like this - keep thinking I would rather have a 360 controller in my hand.

I don't see myself finishing it anytime soon. :?

GTA4 - I have left and have not returned to it though once I do I think I will complete it.

Metroid Prime on the Gamecube.

I cleared almost the whole game - but I could never figure out a way to climb up the floating rocks in the end stage - damn metroids kept knocking me off.

I spent a week trying to climb up but I could never do it.

I never played it, or any Metroid game since.

Beyond Good and Evil. I went into the final boss battle with no health or health packs in my inventory. That's means it's pretty much impossible for me to beat the game without replaying a large segment(which I don't have the patience for). Oh well...

God, those metroids were so annoying. The final boss was easier than getting past those things without dying a few times.

STALKER right now. So close to finishing it, but... i dont know... i have to get around to it. Im not really in the mood for it. Its been almost a year now, or more since I bought it....

Ive got to get stuck into The Witcher aswell.

Though yea I only recently finished Bioshock after stopping playing it months ago.

Oh and GTA IV, so close but really lack the enthusiasm to do so.

GT IV

Jak II

Far Cry PC (got boring after encountering mutants)

DMC3 (lost interest after reaching Arkham)

Final Fantasy XII..(I've played the game half way through and I end up restarting it over and over again because I feel like I could have gained much better stats and raised my level earlier on in the game...then I lost interest)

X-Men Legends 2.

I think there's more but I'm too lazy to finish the list >_>

Metroid Prime 2. I made it to the Final Ing boss, and after several attempts to defeat him, all resulting in failure, I shut the game off and grabbed a bite to eat. Little did I know I would never play that game again.. :(

Same here. That game is good but was very frustrating.

BioShock is another. I was so close to the last fight but I just had no more care for the game.

Before I finished them it was also Call of Duty and STALKER. I was at the last level in CoD1 and then I just gave up for no reason. First time I played through STALKER I was at the Red Forest and then quit because the radiation was very annoying in that area.

Zack and Wiki, I got to the last 2 levels and just got so angry that it turned from puzzles into "Hey let's have boss fights that instead of functioning like puzzles (like say Shadow of the Colossus) we'll have them function like normal boss fights!" Yeah great idea, 'cept this a point and click game...

A lot actually.

Metal Gear Solid 1, Resident Evil 4, Ninja Gaiden 2, Super Mario Galaxy, Zak and Wiki, Zelda Twilight Princess (actually kind of funny, that's every Wii game I own), and countless other games like Chromehounds etc.

I haven't finished Resident Evil 4: Wii Edition wither, but I've played through the GameCube verison like twice. Metroid Prime 3: Corruption is also another I have yet to finish, I'm pretty far along, but the pacing in the series is just too slow for me now.

im ashamed i never finished starcraft without the use of cheats, god the last missions of the zerg and the prottoss are IMPOSSIBLEst1ka
yea same here! last couple sc levels are impossible.

other ones are:

bioshock (i WILL get back to finishing this though)
ff 12 (too low level and too lazy to level grind)
dmc3 (will get back to it if i can find it)
KOTOR (got stuck in sand people planet, was too low level, found it dificult to level (in almost any wrpg really), game save is on xbox but i now game on 360 and i dont want to start all over again)
ninja gaiden 1 (fighting demon lady for the second time, same 360 deal as above)
mario rpg (will get back to this eventually)

but the one i'm most ashamed of is chrono trigger. i got to the last boss but never actually beat it. still my most fav game ever though :P plus i'm replaying it right now.

-Dead rising- I got to a difficult area, gave up and am yet to go back to it.

-Neverwinter Nights 2- This is sad because I absolutly LOVE the campaign in the game, but for some reason, the second stage of the final boss rips me to shreds. I may have to use a cheat at this point just so I can finish the game.

-Ninja Gaiden- I finished 90% of the game, started a new game on my 360, upgraded my wooden sword completely, and for some reason I stopped playing... I may go back to this one though, the game is amazing.

Also, Quake 4 but I'll change that soon.

Final Fantasy VII - It just doesn't suck me in for that long at a time.
