So I've been playing games since the NES days like a lot of people and I'm 24 years old so you would think that I would have played a lot of stuff by now. Here are a few things that I havent played, have not owned or are just flat out wack.

- I have not played any of the God of War games
- Resident Evil 4 is the only game in the series I've beaten
- I liked Bobby's world for the SNES
- I never owned a PS1 or an N64
- I've never beaten a Final Fantasy game (was kinda close with FF4)
- I bought TMNT on the virtual console (I liked that game)
- Havent played Starcraft
- Didn't play any of the Half life games

Theres a lot more stuff I missed out. What are your shameful facts?

These are not shameful at all. TMNT is fantastic and there's nothing really special about FF :P ...I've never played any FF game for more than an hour (not including FFXI).

I've played all the Metal Gear Solid Games, except MGS4 and finished zero. Why do I still like the series and why do I want to play MGS4?

Get out... And don't come back until you've redeemed yourselves...
Get out... And don't come back until you've redeemed yourselves...
I'm not sure I'd consider any of the above posts all that shameful (illegal, certainly).  I believe we get too wrapped up in what we perceive as right and wrong by our communities.  In this case, that community would be our fellow gamers.  Whether or not we've played every major franchise, let alone, liked that franchise is really unnecessary.   We all have only so much time in our lives to juggle responsibilities, relationships, and our hobbies.  Why would we choose to do something that doesn't appeal to us just because that is what we believe everyone else is doing?  Why would we change our opinions to match the group thought and be untruthful to ourselves?  In this case, appearances are not that important.  Play the games you enjoy, finish the ones you can (or don't), expand your horizons only if you choose to, and remember it's supposed to be fun. 

Me, I've never played Final Fantasy VII.  I was a PC gamer when the title was super popular, and chose to spend my time and money on C&C Red Alert, Quake 2, and Diablo.   I'm not going to go back and play a PS1 game now, and I don't care.  I maybe considered less an authority on games by some because of that, but I care even less about that.  All I am certain of is the great time I had in the late 90s playing those and other PC titles.

Well written post man, thats good stuff. Probably shameful was a poor choice for what I wanted to get at. I'm not like Oh my GOD i gotta go get all these old games and play them and redeem myself. The important thing like you said is to play what you enjoy.

Me too! Haha.
Also,
  • I own Cool Spot (doesn't mean I think it's good though).
  • I have more studio band versions of Touhou game music than I'd like to admit.
  • While I'm on the topic of music, my playlist ranges anywhere from death metal to symphony orchestras to trance.
  • I bought a used copy of Perfect Dark Zero for eight bucks, hated it, and drove fifteen miles to return it for my eight dollars back.
  • I wasted 600 Wii Points on Double Dungeons because the idea of the game sounded good and I was too lazy to look at reviews.


Edit: OHH GOD WHY DID I SPEND THOSE WII POINTS >____________<

Edit Two!: I just remembered the worst one of all, which I forgot to add because I'm so ashamed. I worked at a McDonald's for three months. Those were probably the worst three months of anything ever, and after seeing the shit that goes on in there, I pretty much avoid fast food at all costs.

You can't play Big Rigs to completion, because it completes you. That's just how good it is.

Is a good one, same with Secret of Mana. I plan to remedy both myself through the DS and DLC on the Wii etc. In fact you could say mine is failing to get into JRPGs at all meaning there are many fine series like Final Fantasy where I have either beaten or played at all.

NIce thread. Let's see for a few of mine...

- I don't have a cell phone and have no desire to have one. I was on call for over 5 years, getting calls from work all the time: when I was out with friends, in bed with my wife or just sleeping. It very nearly drove me crazy, so I have pretty much sworn cell phones off.

- I'm a big Tomb Raider fan, but I hate what Eidos/Crystal Dynamics have done with Lara's looks. Yes, I preferred when she was bustier.

- I like Vin Diesel (sorry Jeff).

Don't feel bad, Eder. I fear my gaming atrocities are worse than yours. But as a comparison...


- I have not played any of the God of War games - Same here.

- Resident Evil 4 is the only game in the series I've beaten - Only played RE1, and never beat it. A friend did though... so by proxy?

- I liked Bobby's world for the SNES - Never heard of it sadly

- I never owned a PS1 or an N64 - Same

- I've never beaten a Final Fantasy game (was kinda close with FF4) - I've never even played a FF game.

- Havent played Starcraft - Same. I played the demo, or at least attempted to. My computer at the time couldn't handle it.


My biggest shame is that my Dad owned a CD-i... and enjoyed most of the games. Anyone up for some 'Escape from Cyber City' and 'Space Ace'?

Don't be shamed for liking TMNT for NES. I was raised on that game.

All good games have their issues, a good gamer won't let a game's faults distract them from realizing a fantastic game.

-My first console is a PS3.I was a PC gamer.
-Half Life 1 is my first game ever.
-I sold my DS for Fallout 3
-I tried to play Pokemon proffesionally.Individual and Effor Values,Breeding ect.Trained 3 pokemon that way and gave up.

- I think FF7 is overrated and i never even played.Played 6 though and that was amazing.
-I think Megaman Battle Network franchise is a amazing RPG if you abonden the story.People who deny it have too much nostalgia for 2D Megaman

I haven't played any MGS, God of War, or Final Fantasy. There, I said it.

And I still can't see the attraction to Gears of War, and to some extent, maybe even Halo (I honestly have tried though). Man, I feel somewhat liberated by this thread, hmmm...

Oh, and love Eliza Dushku. (gazes into space). I know that's nothing to be ashamed of, I just wanted to say that.

I'll keep this gaming related...

I've never completed:
Bioshock
FF Anything
All the Zelda games but Twilight Princess
Fallout 1

I've never played:
Starcraft
Halo
System Shock 1 or 2
Half-Life 1 or 2

I really like:
Afro Samurai
Kingdom Hearts everything
FFXI
Buying DLC for my games, even if it's crap because it's not 100% complete without!

- Jedi power battles is my favorite Starwars game.
- I play a lot of Zuma at work
- I post most of all my stuff from work
- I don't know what System Shock is

  • Never played a God of War game
  • Never played a Halo game for more than 15 minutes (Halo: Combat Evolved on PC)
  • Thought (and still think) Resident Evil 4 is the worst game of the series
  • Have spent in excess of 200 (and that's a conservative estimate) hours playing Final Fantasy VIII yet haven't ever beaten it -- have restarted and played to disc 4 three times, and various other shorter attempts too
  • Favorite XBLA game is Arkadian Warriors

Lots of yours are the same as mine, except I have beat a number of Final Fantasies, have not played TMNT, and have played Starcraft. The worst thing is taht I have both Half Life 1 and 2 on my steam account, but i haven't played either of them yet.

I have a whole list of video games I have yet to beat.
When I first got Pokemon as a kid, I could not get out of the first room. I kept mashing the A button, but to no avail.

Not much else.
