Far Cry 2, the driving/map reading combo is just too horrible. And any enjoyment is overshadowed by the fact that if go too crazy with the 'nade launcher and blow up all the cars i might as well call this attempt to finish it over.

GTA San Andreas: Fuck you Zeke and your remote-controlled plane.

LittleBigPlanet: I suck so much at platformers. Speaking of which...

Any Mario Game: Ice levels. Fucking ICE LEVELS!

Myst. Partly because i was too little. I hit a brick wall in that game where i just could not figure out what the chuffing hell i was suppose to do.

i have never made it all the way through a final Fantasy Game. I evenhtually get to a point around hour 7 or 8 and i just get bored with the whole process or i hit a boss battle where i need to go out and grind a few levels.

Final Fantasy XIII - No explanation needed.
GTA3 - Lost interest.
Red Dead Redemption - Lost interest.
Fallout: New Vegas -Love it, but it's one of those games you have to invest a lot of time into. I played it heaps, had to put it down due to uni, work, etc, and just can't get back into it.
Tomb Raider: Underworld - Just yuck.
Tomb Raider: Angel of Darkness - Again, just yuck.
Resonance of Fate - Bought it, couldn't understand the battle system, got into a different game, haven't gone back.
Mass Effect 2 - I'll get back to it someday. Just don't have the time atm.

Oblivion, I've never managed more than a few hours. It just saps the fun right out of you and blinds you with a horrible UI, ugly spud people, and terrible game systems for conversation and lockpicking.

Bioshock, it looks pretty but is a terrible, terrible, terrible shooter. Everyone seems to praise the story but I've seen it done better (SS2).

Arkham Asylum: I fucking hate those batarang blinging fights, and refuse to play another second. Too bad I liked the stealthy bits.

Assassins Creed 1 and 2, too be honest I haven't played more than an hour of these two combined. I don't see why they are popular, and I liked The Saboteur.

I don't finish games that bore me.

GTA 4: It got boring and repetitive fast also "Hey Cousin lets go Bowling" got old fast.

Fallout New Vegas: Tried it on xbox it glitched violently and every faction hated me for some reason. Tried on Pc it crashes regularlly and run horribly now.

Mass Effect: stopped playing and could get back into it.

Final Fantasy 9: Been playing since release and had to start over due to Corrupt saves, Discs disappearing, and taking long breaks.

I'd like to finish them all (aside from GTA) but probably never will.

Dungeon Keeper 2. The hot little cut scenes kept me motivated for a bit, but I just couldn't keep going.

Black & White 2. That weird in-your-face pop-up guy interrupted the game so much that I realized I would never get to actually play, because it's all about him.

World of Goo. Fun for a few levels, then eh, whatever.

X3:Terran Conflict. Played for a couple months then put it away, and can't start up again because of the huge time investment needed to get up to speed.

Witcher 1: Really enjoyed the first town, and working out how to do potions. But I lost interest shortly after it burned down and I had to move on.

I could never complete so many games. Recently, it was...
Batman: Arkham asylum... Too boring.
Assassin's creed 2... I hit a bug in my version. I could correct it, but it's a hassle and it can't seem to hold me well enough. Great game though.
Saint's row 2... That fucking Ultor mission. With the sea-doo, and the helicopter. Fuck. AGAIN!
ouch way to name my 3 favorite games.. as for the saints row yea that helicopter is a huge pain in the ass but if you swim out to the boat instead of riding it cant kill you


as for me prey and bio shock started out fun but i lost all interest

Final Fantasy XIII (difficulty brick walls), Infinite Undiscovery (just not fun), Persona 1 PSP (got to the last dungeon but didn't feel like grinding to be at a decent endgame level), probably a lot of others I'm forgetting but these are what come to mind at the moment.

Dragon Age 2: I try to adjust my expectations and remind myself that it's a beat-em-up and to be happy with it as such...but I just can't enjoy it.

Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas: The freaking racing missions! There's such a heavy emphasis on racing in that game and I just can't adapt. I'm trying again but I had to start from scratch thanks to a crapped out memory card.

Final Fantasy VI: I never had the GBA re-release but my SNES copy had a memory fart. I wasn't too far but I couldn't stand the thought of doing Doom Train again. I plan on trying again at some point but I never beat the thing.

Saints Row and Luigi's mansion are the only 2 ever i think. I tend to finish games even if they are not so great. With Saints Row i got bored after like 15 minutes. As I was playing it in 2010, the game just felt so outdated too, especially since just came off playing Mafia 2(Similar game with much better graphics/gun physics)

Luigi's mansion i just couldn't get into at all. Played for longer than SR, around 2 hours, before just calling it quits. Can't think of a time where i couldn't finish a game due to a glitch, though it has probably happened.

Sonic Heroes - Fuck those special stages!
Persona 3 - Fuck you Nyx! I've always said I'd go back and try again, but I never have. Mostly 'cause it take well over half an hour just to get to his final "form."
Metroid Prime 2: Just couldn't beat that Boss Ing. Only attempted it once mind.
Metroid Prime 3: Couldn't get past that big lizard thing with the orbs.
Dragon Quest V: Didn't really like the whole monsters as party members thing. Might give that another try.
Mega Man X: Damn that Spider thing.
...and more that I just can't think of right now.

EDIT: Oh yeah, and GTAIII, GTA: Vice City, and Red Dead Redemption: Boooooooooooooooooooooooring.

Far Cry - in the first quarter of the game there is a place were you have to take dawn minigunner from a fucking helicopter and think 2 mounted guns and a shit load of dudes and after 10th or so time I just thought fuck it.
Serious Sam 2, story well it's a serious sam game, so I'll give it a pass graphics carootny but somewhat fun to look at, game play the thing it should stand on repetitive and boring. New area game closes you to into an usually square shaped arena and endless waves of dudes come to murder you and I mean there could be easily 50 plus enemies of the same type on the screen.

Fallout 3: just couldnt bring myself to finish, idk the setting was too dark and dreary.

Oblivion: I got skyrim, and the campaign didn't feel very rewarding or engaging

Dragon age origins: combat was frustrating

Max Payne 2: coulnd't figure out where to go during the bomb at the ending.

Lost Odyssey (Xbox 360): Got boring and I didn't feel like finishing it. I lost a lot of love for it because of whoever though the "Temple of Enlightenment" was a good idea, should've been shot, and I just gave up because I was bored.

Enslaved Odyssey to the West (Xbox 360): Same reason, got boring really fast. An annoying, irritating, boring combat system. Platforming felt fun only at the beginning, then it just fell apart from there. Oh and it's piss easy.

Gears of War 3 (Xbox 360): Recently a thread I made got blocked because I was finding someone to buy it because I absolutely hated it, I'm the kind of guy that likes a game to have both a good Campaign and online. Which sadly Gears of War 3 only focused on the Online, the campaign was a disaster, and I refused to play through the rest of it,
I quit playing after the death of Dom because I immediately announced the game to be a waste of time.
(Oh and Gunkers made me angry)

Record of the Agarest War (Xbox 360): We had a power surge while it was saving and I lost over a 100 hours of gameplay, I never put it in again.

Bioshock 2 (xbox 360): The very idea as playing as a retarded guy with a fish bowl on his head angered me and I stopped after the third hour.

Baiten Kaitos (Gamecube): Remember what happened to Record of the Agarest... Yup... Only it was like 40 hours lost

Demon Souls & Darksouls (Ps3 * Xbox 360): Both irritatingly repetitive.

Disgaea 3 (Ps3): Hated the cast, hated the music, hated a lot of the changes to the combat system, hated the setting, hated the idea, need I go further?

there are a few others, but these are the ones I've played in like the past three years that made detest them...
also there fixed, thanks for ruining gears 3 for me... I haven't played it yet!
Oops, my bad.

Spoiler tags are the friends of everyone who might have a game ruined by your post. Use them.

I just wonder; why would you say it sucks because of that? What about that makes it a waste of time? It was a rather beautiful moment, really. What about that scene makes the entire game a waste of time?
While I did like Dom as a character, I just thought the death was, sort of not worth it. I mean, I thought that he was going to die mainly after the events of Gears of war 2, it's just I thought it would have been done in a more meaningful way, perhaps I just found myself to bored with the game to care any further. It's just a "me" thing I can't just play a game solely for it's online. For the record I did feel sorry for Dom on the "event" that took place in Gears 2. By the end of it I had higher expectations of Gears of war 3, which by the end of it brought my personal downfall to how much I was hoping to like it. Maybe I wanted it to be a more stronger death in which a higher set of impact to the story was available, I didn't feel like it had that much impact. But that's what "I" feel, the game can have it fans that praise it, but me myself, can't find myself to do it.
