Assassin's Creed; HItman: Blood Money; Perfect Dark Zero, three games I bought, played, got distracted by something else before I'd finished (with AC it was The Orange Box, can't remember for the other 2), never went back to and eventually traded in.
 
I feel I didn't give these games a fair chance, they were all games I enjoyed playing and I just can't decide whether it would be worth re-buying them to give myself an opportunity to finish them (and of course get some precious acheivements).
 
So should I give them another chance?

Hitman and PDZ are pretty meh, i wouldn't bother...but i would definately get AC again, its stupidly tedious and repetitive, but the story itself (outside of the animus) is quite interesting, and if you're interested in AC2 you should probably finish it.

Maybe you should give another chance to Hitman: Blood Money.  After listening to Rebel FM's 3 Game Club episodes about Hitman: Blood Money, it seems it's pretty short and it's pretty good.

I was going to say the same thing. But yeah, Hitman and Assassin's Creed are both good games.

Hitman: Blood Money... fuck, that should be my next game. Perfect Dark Zero is practically free. Love these choices, I can see it happening. Assassin's Creed... well, I loved this game. I bought and finished it in May of this year. I can't wait for Assassin's Creed II. Good time to play it and finish it, the future demands it. Your choice.

I have heard nothing but seething negativity for Perfect Dark Zero. However, Assassin's Creed is an excellent game... assuming you are capable of tolerating the sheer level of repetition the game demands.

Assassin's Creed: Give it another chance. Its repetitiveness deterred me from it for awhile, but it's actually one of the more innovative games of 2008.
 
Perfect Dark Zero: This game is a love-or-hate affair. Personally, I loved it, but I was still carrying the caustic excitement of the Xbox 360's launch with me when I played through it. I think it's past its time now, and you won't miss much by skipping it. 
 
Hitman Bloody Money: As you can tell from my avatar, this is one of my favourite games, and one of my favourite series. I will say that I much preferred Silent Assassin (that game just never gets old for me), but Blood Money is also an excellent action game. However, it fits into a niche category, and I say this without elitism. You have to love the concept to begin with and suspend your disbelief a bit more than for the average game. Otherwise, you'll get bored of it quickly. 
 
In short: yes, no, maybe.

True, but they were also all fun in their own way. Bertamsta wanted to borrow Dead Rising, maybe I could trade him for his copy of AC, if he still has it.

If you can get Hitman and Assassin's Creed for cheap then I would recommend giving them another shot. Perfect Dark Zero though isn't worth your time. There have been too many advancements in the shooter genre since it came out and it just feels archaic if you try and play it now.

AC, yes especially with the sequel coming out this year (still).  I don't know about Hitman and as for PDZ, you can skip that one.  It is really not worth your time.

Assassins Creed was good, I laughed with glee everytime i heard the crowd reacting to a guard i'd throw off a roof. Great stuff.

I liked PDZ and I played it 3 years after it came out. It actually surprised me because I thought it would be terrible, based on what eveyrone was saying, like in this thread. Yet another reason not to listen to what people say about games and just explore for yourself... :p

I'd go through Assasins Creed at least. I had the same problem as you, I got distracted from it, but was able to pick it up again and finish it all the way through. My only complaint about the game is that it is a little repetitive.
