Ever had a game where you started playing but then something got in the way? I am not talking about those games that were so horrible that you stopped playing because you could not bear to stand another moment of it. Rather, I am talking about those games that you enjoyed (even if it was mildly enjoyable). If so:

  • What was the game?
  • When was it that you stopped to play?
  • Why did you stop playing (i.e. what was it that got in the way)?

Here is my list of shame:

  • Prey: got stuck in one level after nearly shitting my pants, and then went for lunch... he wasn't heard from since :P Seriously though, got too much RL stuff going on to really enjoy this game at the moment, and it deserves my full attention.
  • Nikopol: this is sadly my greatest shame. I won it here on SG long before it was on the bundle, but I only managed to run it once for 20 minutes, before being engulfed in life's problems (think I am getting too old for games :/)
  • Portal: Never really understood what was going on at first... its on my "to play again" l;st though...
  • Gothic 2:: Dunno why it is taking so long :/ Though I must admit I am a thorough RPG player and it took me 167 hours to finsih Gothic... I am still at 75 hours I think for this one...

Your Turn.... :)

Dragon Quest VIII. Invested +100 hours in it to finally get to the final dungeon, only for my PS2 to break.

  1. Just Cause 2 (when was Beta) b/c too buggy :(
  2. Amnesia: The Dark Descent b/c I am not a selfkiller, my friend had shit in pants when we were playing this ;D.
  3. TES Oblivion and Morrowind b/c these games is so long I had no time to finish'em.

I never finish games that I love because I don't want it to end. I haven't finished Bastion yet... ;_;

Never finished Mass Effect 1. I love Sci-Fi and I love RPG so I really expected to like it...
The impact of the choices you make in dialogues are 'meh' at best, combat controls were a bit rough I think.
Last thing I did was exploring space first time you get free control of the spaceship but this was surprisingly disappointing as well.
The "planets" are more or less just little squares where you drive to a handful of points marked on your map. So I quit and never continued (but I always wanted to give it a second chance eventually).

  • Would Dead Rising 2 count? I didn't go to the true ending on purpose, but eventually through my second playthrough I got bored and lazy. You can only do the same thing for so long.
  • Final Fantasy X. I am disgraced that I haven't finished this. Reason being that it was possible for me to fly to Sin and start the final phase of the game, but I decided I needed to grind since I knew the upcoming battles would be difficult. Eventually I got lazy and stopped playing.. I'll definitely finish it when the HD remaster is out. I plan to 100% it
  • Borderlands DLC. Got lazy, I guess.. Since I was pretty OP I didn't really find it that fun (I had pretty much unlimited ammo since I was using Roland) I'll probably go finish it all of sometime
  • Touhou 6. THIS GODDAMN GAME. FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF YOU SAKUYA
  • Dissidia: Final Fantasy. Wanted to grind since Chaos is level 99... got lazy..
  • That chick from Devil May Cry 2.. Her CD. I was satisfied with finishing Dante's story.
  • Splinter Cell: Double Agent. Played it after MGS4. Bad move. I was completely bored by it. Didn't even finish the second level.
  • Cave Story + - Last cave (secret) ffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffff

I can't recall any others right now. I usually finish my games, but if I don't then I usually plan to sometime (I'm looking at you Peace Walker)

I remember in third grade we started playing tag. We never officially finished a game yet to I am wary of being tagged by some random stranger who used to be in my class but I no longer recognize him or her.
