The most recent example would be X3: Terran Conflict I got a few days back. I was super excited for it, it looked so incredibly awesome. EVE Online, but single player and with twitch-based space-sim combat! Like, woah!
A few minutes after I booted it up I nearly fell asleep. Not because I had no idea what to do (an often heard argument) but because... actually I have no idea. The concept still appeals oh so much to me.

Same - Mirror's Edge. Although my boredom kicked in sooner than yours; I didn't even complete it.
Turok 2. When I first got the game, I had not idea it was regarded as a piece of garbage in a cartridge. I played the first level and I was like "Wow this is neat." Then as the first level dragged out and turned into a backtracking maze, I became incredibly bored. I ended up playing through most of the game for the sole purpose of playing it, since there were no other games around that I hadn't played yet. The only way to have fun was to cheat and unlock all of the weapons and just play with those.
I wonder who at that company thought that that was good level design?

Hang on, wut? I'm just saying, I got bored of it. It's just not my thing. You know, opinions are allowed. I bet you don't like everything I like either.pumuckl said:
Besides what do you mean without making it to adulthood? I didn't play it till I was 20, maybe it would have entertained me as a child but I didn't enjoy it when I played it.
Transformers: War for Cybertron. I jizzed a bit at the concept of being a Transformer but, alas, the game was pretty dull and tedious, I thought.
Also, Halo 3. Thought I'd try it to see what all the hype was about. It just didn't appeal to me and I found it boring, even though I was playing with my mate. Similar kind of thing happened with Gears of War 2, although we completed it once on co-op, we went back to do it again on a higher difficulty nearly a year later and just instantly got bored of it.
ACTIVATE FLAME SHIELD.

Dragon Age: Pile of shit Origins.
Seriously, after reading the reviews of how good it was I was expecting greatness, but it's just a fantasy game making itself look like an RPG.
Bad graphics, repetitive combat, absolutely awful story...

Prototype/Crackdown 2.
I played them through once with an orgasmic smile on my face.
Never touched them again.

I know what you mean that game was buggy as all hell. And don't even get me started on Ewen, or however you spell his name.B4D 9R4MM3R said:
Nice to see you by the way.
Little big planet.
I played it at a friends house and we spent all night playing it. Then we got tired of it and stopped.
After I bought it, I sold it for Alan Wake two days later. It just wasn't fun anymore.

The first time I played a JRPG and I realized that main character had less spine then a Jellyfish chopped into square chunks. Infinite Undiscovery's Capell was another good example.
Blood bowl... that was probably the game I played the least amount of time... somewhere close to four minutes or so.
It's the scenery that does that. I like Halo 1 and it's replayability. But when you begin everything looks and feels dull. It goes away after a while when you need to protect soldiers. (even though it doesn't matter for the game if they die)EvilMaggot said:installed halo 1... played for 20 min... and never got further
