Games you haven't seen the end of

[Druckles]

None.

Although I stopped playing Half-Life a couple of times because I was stuck. This was back in the good old days of being like 8.

I never played USAF for longer than 5 minutes, but then I didn't pay good money for it, and frankly, it didn't make much sense. Flight Simulators don't float my boat.

Other than that, no, I've always completed a game, to my knowledge.

 

[redruM]

Oh yeah, Morrowind. It's a fun game although the combat reeeeaaaaaally sucks, it has good atmosphere but it got boring after a while and kinda confusing.

 

[Tollbooth Willie]

Call of Cthulhu: DCOTE (****ing Shoggoth!)

 

[Warbie]

Metroid Prime 3. I got near the end, was really enjoying it, then Galaxy came out.

 

[ShinRa]

tetris

 

[Sheepo]

Gun
Granted, I did beat it on hard, but I have to beat the hardest level before I consider myself done. The final level on insane mode is just stupid.
Advance Wars DS
I still play it, it just got too difficult so I gave up on the campaign.
LoZ: Twilight Princess
Haven't gotten around to it because of Galaxy, MP3, etc.

I remember I used to never be able to beat Half-Life because I had to stop during the "Gonarch's Lair" because I was practically shitting my pants the whole time. I was like 5 though. That's why I beat Opposing Force first and have a strange affinity for it.

 

[CyberPitz]

Advance Wars: DS
Too difficult for me...I'm stuck on a mission, and can't beat it without "level grinding" my characters up.

Call of Duty 4
Multiplayer is fun as hell...single player, no so much.

Juiced 2: Hot Import Nights
I'm trying, but having to race for each performance upgrade is just retarded, and very time consuming.

Halo
So utterly boring

Final Fantasy V
I just lose interest about 1/2 way through, but still really enjoy the game...

Wild Arms 4
Boring gameplay, and stupid story.

 

[ríomhaire]

Operation Flashpoint - One mission just annoyed the crap out of me
Hidden & Dangerous - Not sure. I just stopped playing it one day
Doom 3 - Boredom

 

[redruM]

Halo - after playing the hl series, how could I even find this remotely amusing? Got bored at the part where I was looking for some library or whatever.

 

[Bad^Hat]

Ditto on Advance Wars DS. I liked it until the campaign went crazy with the fog of war. One recon unit is not enough. :|

Not a big fan of the naval maps, either.

Edit - War Room's still good though. And atleast then I don't have to put up with Jake's fo shizzling.

 

[CyberPitz]

Oh god, a white kid talking like they do nowadays...drives me MAD.

 

[ríomhaire]

Two more:
Oblivion - Painted Trolls
Final Fantasy VII - Game crashed at a certain cutscene

Edit:
Advance Wars DS campainge is difficult, but I was able to get through it without grinding or a walkthrough (Not the hard campaign though, that is damn hard). I like the fog of war maps though. At least the AI doesn't suffer from TCIACBS (the computer is a cheating bastard syndrome) like it does in Advance Wars 2, where the AI can magically see through fog of war.

 

[DEATHMASTER]

Flashpoint something, so messed up.

 

[Emporius]

Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time
Legend of Zelda: Wind Waker

In both I worked my ass off to get to the last dungeon, but a number of factors contributed to me never actually finishing them. Great games though :thumbs:

 

[Jintor]

I'm halfway through the AWars DS Hard Campaign but I can't resist stopping on Muk Amok to grind my characters so I can get their alternate outfits.

Even if their alternate outfits really suck.

Normal campaign was a breeze though, I don't know what you guys are all talking about. :/

 

[Trevelyan]

An ass load of nes games + a few genesis one's. I never completed Alex Kidd in Miracle World for my SMS which has left a scar.

 

[kai]

Half-Life 2- I was at the very end, but then I sold my Xbox to get a 360 and had to restart, then I got the orange box and looked up the ending and started (and recently completed) HL2 Episodes.

LoZ: Twilight Princess- I played a lot, at least until I got my 360

Marvel Ultimate Alliance: Same as TP and that part where you have to fight like 50 Iron Man suits is just so effing hard!

Resident Evil Remake- To freakin hard.

Halo 3: Call of Duty 4 came out

 

[Qhartb]

American McGee's Alice
Clue: Murder at Boddy Mansion
Commander Keen 4
Deus Ex
Eets
Far Cry
Final Fantasy X-2
Grim Fandango (game bug stopped game)
Guild Wars
The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy
Max Payne 2
NetHack
Prince of Persia
They Hunger
Vampire: the Masquerade: Redemption

[Jintor]

The Grim Fandango bug... was it the elevator moving too fast to get off?

 

[Tollbooth Willie]

Dead Rising: Got bored after a while

AvP 2: Got bored, the whole wall crawling appeal of the Aliens wore off fast.

 

[dfc05]

There are plenty of games I haven't even come close to finishing... but the most memorable are the ones where I got to the end and couldn't finish.

Age of Empires II: The Conquerors expansion pack
Last part in the Mayan campaign. My army of guys running around in eagle and jaguar costumes were just inadequate compared to the European cavalry. So frustrating.

Fallout 1
Wasn't strong enough to fight the mutants yet, so I decided to kill those gangsters in Junktown as a little sidequest for the mayor. I think I accidentally killed a non-gangster (although she attacked me first), so the Junktown guards came after me. I ended up killing everybody in Junktown and robbing the mayor's safe. After that, I just didn't feel like playing anymore.

Doom II
I got to the last level, and I swear I tried to shoot that little red square. I tried all kinds of different crap, like jumping from the little raised platform onto the ledge in front of the 'icon of sin' and running around killing all these endlessly spawning monsters. Nothing seemed to be happening (probably just didn't time my shooting right when trying to shoot the square) so I quit, because at the time I didn't know what I was supposed to do to finish the game.


The first time I got to the end of the first Half-Life, I actually managed to kill the Nihilanth, but then the game glitched and wouldn't let me see the ending. So I was stuck in the room with the dead Nihilanth and his head was split open. I thought maybe he wasn't dead yet so I shot a bunch of rockets at him and jumped on his head and started hitting the crystal inside with the crowbar. Nothing was working. Finally ended up looking up a walkthrough and found out the game just glitched. Bleh.

 

[Dog--]

Far Cry Instincts Predator (Son of a bitch hard)

Oh yea, I had that for 360.. I ended up selling it. I got so pissed at it. I couldn't get past this part where

Spoiler

the mutant guys ambush you inside the building on the lava level, there a cutscene for it

. You have no weapons and it's F*CKING hard, you have to use your fists.

 

[Saturos]

Metroid Prime 2: Echoes (Boredom. The parallel dimension thing got old fast. An overused concept imo.)

Deus Ex2:IW (sidetracked by other games)

StarOcean:Till The End Of Time (Beat the main story, but technically not the game, as there were still three bonus dungeons to complete)

FF X (Boredom. Got to the airship/Sin battle, but never finished from that point forward.)

FF X-2 (Apathy. Quite possibly the lamest, most cheesy ass FF ever conceived. Didn't even complete the first dungeon.)

FF XII ( No reason, just never got around to finishing this one.)

Doom3:ROE expansion (no reason. Just never finished it.)

Jak3 (I got that game last year and never finished it for no reason at all.)

TES IV: Oblivion (Haven't had the time to even play it lately.)

Double Dragon 2 (Difficulty. Hard ass game. Don't believe me? Download a NES emulator and try for yourselves. Been playing that game since I was like 4, and never completed it to this day.)

Contra:Shattered Soldier (Need I say more?)

Shit, this list of unfinished games could go on forever as I am a lazy gamer and never finish what I start. This thread was a bad idea.

 

[Deleted member 56031]

The Grim Fandango bug... was it the elevator moving too fast to get off?

There is a a patch to fix that you know?

 

[kupocake]

I never completed Alex Kidd in Miracle World for my SMS which has left a scar.

This is my claim to fame, though in all honesty, it was the first game I ever used a walkthrough for (from some early 90s Master System hints magazine!). The game ended in a room where you had to walk over some blocks in sequence. Very unfair stuff, and I don't know to this day where the sequence actually comes from!

edit: Just looking at a speed run of this on youtube. This game is ****ing hard!

 

[Jintor]

There is a a patch to fix that you know?

Yes, except I was going to tell them. I finished Grim Fandango.

(Although where was Manny's ticket? That still bugs me.)

 

[Deleted member 56031]

Sorry didn't read everything

 

[Bad^Hat]

FF X (Boredom. Got to the airship/Sin battle, but never finished from that point forward.)

Exactly where I got to. Up until then I was forcing myself to play so I could see the ending, but then I figured, f*ck it, I'll download a video.

Jak3 (I got that game last year and never finished it for no reason at all.)

I wanted to finish that game. Had alot of fun with the first 1/2 (of whatever fraction I completed). But jesus, it had to insist on throwing so many frustrating, repetitive missions at you near the end. Everything once you reach the city was pretty shit, tbh.

 

[15357]

Thief 3.


Lost the ****ing dvd and reformatted, it is IMPOSSIBLE to get this game anymore. Not here anyway.

GTA:SA

Same reason.

 

[Deleted member 56031]

Both of them are on steam now.

 

[Jintor]

Both of them are on steam now.

He's in S.Korea, I guess they block those games there? Not sure. :/

Censorship ftw, Numbers.

 

[theotherguy]

A few notables

Black and White- Showstopping bug on level 3

Half-life- Evil baby thing

Bioshock- Bored after 20 minutes

STALKER- Zombies with pinpoint accuracy

Zelda III- Last Ganon level with the falling floor tiles and firebats.

Oblivion- Boring

Starcraft- Mar Sara

FreeLancer- "tag these ships in the nebula! Otherwise they don't appear on your sensors and come up behind you and kill you!"

 

[_Z_Ryuken]

Zelda II

I'm playing it right now!

 

[Operational]

Starcraft- Mar Sara

You mean the mission where you have to survive for 30mins while you evacuate?

 

[Narvi]

God, I hate that mission so much. It was such a relief when the dropships spawned in.

 

[Deleted member 56031]

Ah damn I didn't realise

 

[Druckles]

Half-life- Evil baby thing

The Nihilanth. The reason I didn't complete it the first time. There was a bug with the game, meaning he wouldn't die. Sure, he'd die, but then the "cutscene" wouldn't happen.

 

[Operational]

God, I hate that mission so much. It was such a relief when the dropships spawned in.

Really? It's one of my favourites, I liked the defence against an onslaught gameplay.

Yes, it's fun until the last ten minutes and you realize that the bastards have mined out the remaining eighty percent of the map and are now sending it at you in the form of THOUSANDS upon THOUSANDS of hydralisks and zerglings.

WHY IS HALF MY BASE RED

That's the best part!
