GTA, wasn't that great of a game. Roman was a whiny ***** and everyone else in that game could bugger off.
Kingdom Hearts. I was at the last stage of the game, just trying to max my level and finish all the secret stuff before facing the final boss. I ended up not finishing it because my brother scratched the hell out of my disc. I beat KH2 though.
Final Fantasy 12. I think I was in the last 80% of the game when my roomie moved out and the game was hers so it went with her. I got a new copy and played a little more, but then new games came out and finishing it got put on the back burner.
.hack//G.U. vol3. I beat the story of it, but I never finished the forest thing at the end or got a 100% complete for everything. I was forgotten about when I left for school, and I still haven't picked it back up.

Two Worlds 2 - I just can't... can't worst spend money ever, i was trying to support my own country and game production and give this game a chance, game is too broken and don't even feel like repeating it.
Final Fantasy XIII - I'm sitting on the last boss last phase of the guy and what does he do when he is left with 100000 hp ? cast Doom.... i'm not going to play this game for a long time, need to rest.
Sacred 2 - Bought the game when it come out, played for 4 hours, cried for 10 hours for wasting my money.

You can't beat Mount & Blade anyway.Kitteh said:
Still haven't beaten Starcraft II. I'd always just end up playing the Dawn of War games instead of attempting it again, I just find them so much more fun.
I'll just go through my steam games...
-Aliens vs. Predator (2010) hated the alien side
-Batman Arkham asylum GOTY no real reason
-Borderlands terrible game
-Crysis lost interest about half way through
-Crysis warhead: same as crysis, but got almost 2/3's through
-Dead space: not a fan, didn't scare me at all, and the game play was bleh
-Dragon age: origins to much time chatting with npc's, not enough killing stuff
-Far Cry 2 villages respawned so quickly it got irritating quick
-Metro 2033, it seems all the eastern european/russian fps/rpg games bore me after a few hours for some reason I cant quite put my finger on.
-Mirrors edge: had a jump that took 309203920 tries to make it, finally made it, in my celebration i fell down, tried it 2032030 times until I got pissed and uninstalled.
-Red faction guerrilla, quite boring, 3rd person view kills games for me
-The entire stalker series (bought at once) see metro 2033
-The scourge project episodes 1 and 2, 3rd person annoys me after awhile
-soldiers heroes of ww2, bought it a few years after it had came out, and the graphics annoyed me
-Titan quest and expanion: bad D2 clone
-Tom clancy splinter cell chaos theory: 3rd person annoyed me again
-warhammer 40000 dawn of war 2, all the games, no good reason really, will probably finish them soonish
-The "x series" of space exploration or what have you...graphics were either to dated, or controls and documentation bad..
*note* all of these games were purchased during steam sales, I'm a sucker for a sale

I disagree. It was a brilliant game. But I think you are referring to the jump sequences; falling to your death every few meters?katsumoto03 said:
Or was it the first person view while jumping around?
I do hear those complaints a lot, along with the combat. But I never had an issue with any of them. The game had a certain flow that just worked well for me.
Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn
For some strange reason I dislike the battle system in 3D (I did found the fight animations too long and plain). The story wasn't compelling enough for me to carry on playing and it doesn't help that I really hated the main female lead in the first arc of the story.

Grand Theft Auto IV - I just never really got into the story, and past opening up some more of the city to play about in had no incentive to finish it.
Final Fantasy XII - again, the story lost me, got a little too convoluted and I had no idea why I was going where I was going - I played a good amount of the way through before I gave up on it, got to some big plain where a load of hunters were, maybe 2/3 through the story. What I did play of it I enjoyed though.

Dragon Age 2 because I cannot bring myself to search the same cave over and over again.
The Witcher, I got it a few weeks before The Witcher 2 and I have been playing the second because I prefer the changes to the combat.

Rogue Galaxy for two reasons.
1) I'm not really a big fan of RPGs, though I admit I really like Rogue Galaxy.
2) My best friend started playing it when he would visit my house, and it's hilarious to watch him die over and over again on the final battles. He still hasn't beaten it, and it's been a few months. It's quite entertaining. I think we might make a playthrough out of it on Youtube to piss him off, once our channel picks up.

-FFXII: I literally got bored with it overnight, sometime in between beating Balthier's father and Girguven despite enjoying the game very much beforehand. I stuck with it until the boss at the end of Girguven, but after a few failed attempts at beating him I never played the game again. I could've beaten him, I just didn't care enough anymore at that stage.
-KH:COM: Too hard. I got it when I was eight though, when i wasn't that good at games. I vividly remember trying for months to beat Riku (the last encounter, that is), but never pulled it off. I'd love to give it another go if I had the chance.
-Dragon Age: Awakening: I lent my copy to a friend shortly after buying the DLC, I had only completed the first mission at Vigil's Keep. I have yet to get to get it back, despite the fact he's likely long finished with it by now. Another game grabbed my attention at the time and I simply forgot about it.
-PGR 3: The only game besides FFXIII I can honestly say this about: I hated it. Thank God it was free with the Xbox.
-Ratchet and Clank: Tools of Destruction: I don't know why, but i just couldn't get into it. A Crack in Time however, is probobly my faveorite game on the PS3.
-Croc: Legend of the Gobbos: This one still haunts me. I was stuck on a late boss for a VERY long time - when I finally beat him, lo and behold, the game disc sratched and I wasn't able to find another copy at the time. It's what encouraged me to obsess over handling my discs to this day.
-FFIX: Same story as FFXII.
All I can think of at the mo. There's plenty of games I haven't finished, but I usually rent them...

A shitload of games, honestly. I have probably not finished more games than I've finished. Some examples: Fallout 3, Half Life 2, Divinity 2, Brink (although I might finish this one), Mass Effect 2 (Planning on finishing), Neverwinter Nights 2, Torchlight, The Witcher 2 (might finish this one too, just haven't played it much since I bought it), GTA 4.
That's just a quick list from my Steam library that I haven't finished yet or might not ever finish. I'm kind of broke right now and can't work due to an injury, so I'll likely finish a lot of those over the summer...but we'll see.

I have a few =/
Mostly not enough hours to play and then something new comes out... but anyway:
BioShock - was a good game but it kind of lost me at the end. I was right there... chasing Ryan. I think I died a couple times then went and played something else. Not much after that my GPU died and just never went back to play it even with my new PC.
Red Dead Redemption - got pretty far along, somewhere in Mexico, but just lost interest and new things to play
Fallout New Vegas - I'll finish this one eventually. I just can't play more than 40hrs of a single game so after I stopped playing the first time (~20hrs) I went back not too long ago and now I'm somewhere around 60hrs played, but still not quite finished. It'll happen... I have all the final quests...
Assassin's Creed Brotherhood - Well, I've mostly just been busy with other stuff. I was playing it right up until The Witcher 2 came out and haven't really played it since. Also, just started playing LA Noire with my girlfriend on the weekend so been busy with that.
Dragon Age Origins - Lost interest around 40-45hrs in... never went back.
Dragon Age 2 - I'm in the final chapter but have been playing other games... I'll finish it up eventually since there's probably less than 10 hrs left.
That's most of it. I bet there's at least a couple I'm forgetting but this is enough, and most of these games I do want to finish sometime... maybe during my holidays...
