Alan Wake: the least intimidating horror game out there, its really just a walk through the woods simiulator with the occasional gunfight to keep you awake.
Operation ancorage and mothership zeta fallout dlcs....i finished them...but they were way to linear
For me it's gotta be Final Fantasy 13 (as much of a fan of the series), and also Dragon Age 2.
13 was just to linear, and DA2 was ugh, too much recycling.

Most of the final Fantasy games. The most fun I had in any of them was giving the characters stupid names.

Final Fantasy I and II
and the original .hack quadrilogy
I always make sure to finish a game if I pick it up (which probably makes me a sucker), but man, those 6 games have probably taken me a year each to beat.
I wasn't expecting much from FF1, considering it's the first in a series, so I was expecting it to be, shall we say, sub-par for the rest of the series. I was right. It was flat, unfocused, and boring. Nothing exciting about it until the *very* end, and even that was a little bit of meh.
FF2's combat system killed me inside. I was just so frustrated with ability grinding all the time that I dropped the game from my radar for almost 8 months before I finally had the stomach to pick it back up.
Luckily, I played both of the above on the Final Fantasy Origins Playstation re-release, so at least I could pull up a world map. Without that, it probably would've taken longer.
The .hacks... Just the same thing, over and over and over and over and over, ad nauseum. The story was semi-interesting, but the amount of random fields and dungeons I had to do to get strong enough to continue the story killed all the joy for me. By the end of the series, it was a god-damned chore, and I was glad to be done with it. I played Bayonetta immediately afterwards in celebration.

Every sports game released after the NES (and most that were on the NES). Watching real sports is boring, why would I want to play a game about it (note: I am not against playing them in real life, I'm just against them as a game)?
I also got bored with early civilization games.
