I've played every Final Fantasy game, except for XI, and I still haven't beaten a single one of them. I came VERY close with VII, VIII, X, and X-2, though. I even owned the guides to those 4...

I'm playing Platinum version right now in my left hand, actually.

I was once killed by the first goomba in the original Mario Bros. NES title.

Nope i cant really think of any. Other than the friend who games as much as, i dont really talk about games in school, and havent played any of the ones to be ashamed off as far as i know. I never got addicted and all the games that are special enough to be on my desk are good games.

I spend £30 on 3 delta force games becaue they looked alright form the back of the box?
Will that do it?

I still like Pokemon. A lot. I know it's not considered that weird here, but most people I know would think I haven't mentally aged past 8 or something.

I used to be terrified of Chain Chomp.

I can beat that. I've died multiple times on the first goomba and the furthest I ever got in that game in a few screens in on level 1. This is why I do not play games from before the console generation I started on.

I spent my first three months of playing DK 64 in the tutorial area because I was scared to go out into the real game.

Haha, I never finished 6,8 and 10. I really love those games (also owned the guide for 10 which was awesome) but I always stopped playing right before the end boss, not sure why.

Again, I'm playing Platinum version right now, but I'd also like to add that I was scared of the music in Lavender Town in R/B/Y. Like, deathly afraid.

I still own all my PS1 games and my PS1.

And I whored out Animal Crossing for 5 months after I got it. I stopped playing when my favourite animal left the town :(

No one has beaten me on Crash Team Racing since '98

During the high point of my Runescape addiction, I started seeing real life in really bad graphics, and kept on staring at trees wondering what level i would have to be to cut them.

.. I know, don't bother telling me how sad it is, I've heard it all already.

I've just remembered! I used to have a note pad with a daily plan of what i wanted to achieve and such in each day. Like, want X amount of logs this day and so on.

My god I was a cool 14 year old..

Jeeze, I can probably count the amount of games I've actually completed on one hand. However, I'm gonna go with my inability to ever level a character in an mmo up to the level cap. I always get close and end up quitting or getting bored or whatever.

I could not beat the water temple without a friends help. Turned out it was something easy, i missed a stone block that you had to push somehow...

The PS1 fact is not embarrassing, I still have my PS1 and all of my games for it.

The Animal Crossing one is though :p

EDIT: I didn't see you're a girl, that makes it better but still quite embarrassing.
