Just Cause 2 - bad storyline, bad driving engine

Darksiders - just boring

Door Kickers - Too long, too tactical and unforgiving
Swarm Arena - Too difficult to unlock all characters with the difficult achievements
Nimble Quest - Too difficult
Tea Party Simulator - Bad controls, bad optimization, frustrating
GemCraft Chasing Shadows - Too long and gets dull because of it
FUEL - The CD key doesn't work because of the DRM
Burnout Paradise - Too long and gets dull
Deus Ex: GOTY - Weird issues with modern machines, fixes don't help
Sanctum - Don't have a co-op partner to play with
Rogue Legacy - Too long and grindy
Hitman 2: Silent Assassin - Too confusing and abstract
Armed with Wings: Remastered - Frustrating controls and logic
Outlast - Too scary ;_;
The Masterplan - No real failsafe, can lost hours of progress with only one wrong step
Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag - Got boring, the boat's fun only for so long
AvP 2010 - Too damn boring
MURDERED: SOUL SUSPECT - Too damn dull. Story's fun, but gameplay sucks...

These are only a few of the games. Not 100% sure if I'll finish any of these.

About Deus Ex: get the Revision mod on Steam and it should run without problems.

This is pretty dated now. I actually got past the issues, got used to the game and pretty much loved it :D

If you haven't already solved the FUEL issue, wirte an email to custservice[at]codemasters.com with a proof of your purchase. Worked for me in November.

Got that done too :)
But as with Zgriptor, it's good that you mentioned it and gave the fix, since people will keep buying FUEL and they will encounter the same issue.

Well, yeah, I saw that your post was from 8 months ago and thought that you probably solved the issue but I thought to mention it just in case.

My main ones:

Borderlands - bores me to the core.
Undertale (yes really) - I just never thought it was that interesting, just not a stand out game to me.
The STALKER games - they're fun but confusing and crash frequently.
Mirror's Edge - bored me, and had a few odd particle effects that brought my computer down to less than 1 fps for no good reason. screw you glass breaking effect.

Disabling PhysX will remove the performance issues in Mirror's Edge.

Incredibly dumbed down, number of actual side quests is pretty low, full of this radiant/randomly generated go fetch me this item quest bullcrap,

Bethesda lately has been going more about catering to the super casual crowd than keeping their already big, amazing crowd that really appreciated their games. And that's a really big shame.

I did play the game for atleast 60 hours I'd say (it's not all recorded on steam), but it still disappoints me and is not a true elder scrolls game in my opinion.

Prison Run And Gun - Got stuck at some point and didn't come back to it. Maybe I will sometime, it's a good game but got very hard towards the end.

panGEMic - Free game in which you have to collect diamonds and avoid enemies on 25 levels. The main problem is that once you lose all 5 lives you have to start all over again. Very hard.

Just cause 2 too. Played for maybe 5 hours and was bored. One of the most boring games i've ever played.
GTAIV DLC. Managed to finish the main game, but i couldn't stand more of this broken game.
Risen 3 - what a piece of garbage. It looks like developers intentionally made the game bad.
Devil may cry - i don't know why.
Ittle dew - boring.
Lifeless planet - lifeless crap.
By the way darksiders was one of those games i was forcing myself to finish. Very boring and too long.

That's more then I could. I played it for about 5 or so hours before just giving up on it. The driving was especially frustrating to me...

Driving was a lot more realistic than in the previous GTA games. Same driving is in GTA V. It's good IMO, challenging.

Thing is, I don't play GTA for it's realism. The driving was very frustrating for me, thus I didn't enjoy it. GTA V's driving is a lot better.

Well, I think that driving from GTA 3/VC/SA is outdated as hell. It's good they introduced a new one. And IMO in GTA V is almost the same, very similar at least. But yeah, a bit better too.

And IMO in GTA V is almost the same

Not at all. In GTA IV you basically had to stop to take a turn and your cars all felt very heavy (IRC) and slippery. GTA V was a lot better. But I do agree on the older ones being outdated.

But it's almost the same in GTA V. I played it a week ago and driving is also pretty hard, you have to slow down often or it's gonna be crash after crash. It was extremely visible in a race mission I played as well. Reckless and easy driving finished with San Andreas, in IV and V you have to be really careful how you drive.

Sure, you have to be carefull, but it was way worse in GTA IV. In GTA V you can kind of get away with reckless driving, while in GTA IV you couldn't. It may have something to do with the setting and the streets being a bit more open, but the physics are also a bit different.

Gay Tony DLC is better than the whole GTA IV campaign and it fixed a lot of things :P I liked Ittle Dew but it could get boring, true.
Lifeless Planet was awesome IMO but I love such games :)

Super Hexagon: I don't consider it a game I have to finish... but it's too hard! I can barely last 10 seconds. ;[

1001 Spikes - One of those "die 30 times during a level because there are hidden traps everywhere" type of platform games. Basically every level is trial and error and you have to memorize which trap is where in order to omit them and succeed. I'm not a big fan of those platform games but I might come back to it sometime cause otherwise it's pretty decent.

Fitz The Fox - Pretty decent old school type platform game but it starts very easy and fast ends up hard as fuck. I give up, don't even want to come back to it.
