have you ever played a game you thought was really good, but then for some reason stopped playing it and never went back to it?
I for example thought Lost Odyssey was really good, but in Disc 3 I was forced to use certain characters against an Ice boss I had never bothered to level up, so I never got any further than that point in the game. Which is a shame, since the game is really good. so, please share your stories from good games you've never finished:)

I gave a list of mine already, but in the guise of "regrettable purchases."

#14 Posted by Valentine (35 posts) - 4 years, 10 months ago

Bioshock, but to be honest, it was starting to piss me off.

Oblivion for sure, the lag on the 360 got to me before i could manage to drag myself away from the dark brotherhood quest line long enough to do it

#18 Posted by overkill (58 posts) - 4 years, 10 months ago

the legend of zelda OOT , i think it was the water temple when your older link that just made me put the game down and go sulk in a corner

#19 Posted by SolidSeth (18 posts) - 4 years, 10 months ago

GTA IV, God of war 2, and Final Fantasy XII to name a few

Oh and FFXII might be arguable on the good game part, I just loved the rest of them and feel
obliged to finish that one too. :P

#20 Posted by Gargantuan (1819 posts) - 4 years, 10 months ago

Planescape: Torment, Fallout II, Baldurs Gate 1 and 2, Icewind Dale 1 and 2, Beyond Good and Evil and Dreamfall: the Longest Journey...
All of them are great games that I haven't finished. :(

#21 Posted by darthincredible25 (76 posts) - 4 years, 10 months ago

I know that Elder Scroll: Oblivion and Grand Theft Auto 4 are good, I just never finished them, so I can't really determine that.

Metroid Prime 2 - Awesome game but once I got to the last boss I just stopped playing...
Morrowind - a proverbial yawn-fest, I couldn't finish it..

#25 Posted by License_To_Bill (789 posts) - 4 years, 10 months ago

Oh, I've two worth mentioning.

Tomba!: Saved before the last boss and never played it again. Never even attempted the boss.

Beyond Good and Evil: Enjoyed the hell out of it, but couldn't beat the boss. I remember him being very cheap.

#26 Posted by Dolphin_Butter (1875 posts) - 4 years, 10 months ago

Final Fantasy VII, under circumstances I couldn't control.

#27 Posted by Tovan (632 posts) - 4 years, 10 months ago

#31 Posted by samcotts (2256 posts) - 4 years, 10 months ago

Final Fantasy X. I regard it as one of my all time favourite games, but I still haven't completed it.

#32 Posted by MillerWakka (201 posts) - 4 years, 10 months ago

Ocarina of Time, definitely. I've got the gold cart sitting right there, weeping to itself softly.

#33 Posted by Disclaim3r (116 posts) - 4 years, 10 months ago

Condemned 2. But I can pick that up again whenever. I don't see myself getting around to it anytime soon, though.

#34 Posted by RVonE (4120 posts) - 4 years, 10 months ago

Oh man, there are so many of those. The one that stands out the most is Star Ocean: Till the End of Time. I was in the last part of that game and then the disk drive of my PS2 died. I still have to buy a new PS2 and finish that game.

#35 Posted by AimingWandersly (179 posts) - 4 years, 10 months ago

metroid prime 3, gta iv, metal gear solid 2, and i'm sure many more. though the good ones, i usually get back to in the end.

#36 Posted by Daanienator (164 posts) - 4 years, 10 months ago

Oblivion, Battlefield: Bad Company (can't do the last level), Lost Odyssey (almost finished), Half life 2, Half life 2: episode 2 and some other I can't remember right now but I will get back to this

Prime is a bitch. Luckily I had colled every single item in the game so it wasnt as annoying
#38 Edited by Jonathan (653 posts) - 4 years, 10 months ago

Half Life 1
Zelda OOT ( started a new game like 100 times.)
Mass Effect (I'm going back to that soon)
Okami
Shadow of the Colossus
Final Fantasy VII
Castlevania SOTN
Star Wars KOTOR
Ninja Gaiden
Deus Ex
Far Cry (PC)
God of War 2
Hotel Dusk Room 215

And quite a few more. And you can see, most of these games are older. I use to rarely finish games but now I'm very tenacious about finishing them. I will got back to these games though.


#39 Edited by Verdugo (2002 posts) - 4 years, 10 months ago

Final Fantasy 8

The game won't go past after I defeat Adel. Even so, it's one of the best games I've ever played:).

Oh, and F.E.A.R is another. But I'm actually playing that game. Haven't finished it yet, but I think I'm near the end. Intense game.

#40 Posted by Why_So_Serious (803 posts) - 4 years, 10 months ago

Ocarina of TIme. I played about halfway through and never picked back up. Pity.

#41 Posted by FordFairlane (99 posts) - 4 years, 10 months ago

So many that I created a List for them all under ProcrastiNation.

To quote Top Gun: "The list is long, but distinguished."

#42 Posted by Orakk (61 posts) - 4 years, 10 months ago

GTA: San Andreas. I gotta beat this game! But I cant bring myself to it. Grrr.

Recently I have been leaving some games unfinished, and I think it's cause my attention span gets shorter with age.  I remember when I was younger and I played everything to death, now a days something needs to be really entertaining to hold me the whole way through.  I'm 21 by the way.  Let's see...

Assassin's Creed

Bully

Oblivion (sold it)

only ones I can think of recently

#45 Posted by Hulk (428 posts) - 4 years, 10 months ago

Hulk not finish Half-Life 1&2,  Baldur's Gate 2, Suikoden 2, Breath of Fire 3, and lots of other RPGs that Hulk rented or borrowed then not have time to play.

#46 Posted by TurboMan (5628 posts) - 4 years, 10 months ago

Final Fantasy X

#47 Posted by K2Valor (27 posts) - 4 years, 10 months ago

Resident Evil 4, Lost Odyssey

#48 Posted by Randolph (374 posts) - 4 years, 10 months ago

Okami, it just got boring.  But I'm not a big platformer fan, I was only drawn to it by it's unique style.  Also, Tomb Raider Legend, not enough Tombs.  Tomb Raider: Anniversary, no true current gen version, the 360 port was the PS2 game in hi res.  Despite the good gameplay, I was so bummed out by the failure to combine current gen visuals with improved classic Tomb Raider gameplay that i couldn't finish it.

#49 Posted by Brandler (64 posts) - 4 years, 10 months ago

Resident Evil 4

#50 Posted by OblivionGuy07 (161 posts) - 4 years, 10 months ago

There are a bunch for me. I never finished Call of Duty 4, the online is just too addicting.
