Elder Scrolls: Oblivion.

I have owned this game for two years, played the first 20 minutes and honestly could feel myself age. About as riveting as watching paint dry.

Battlefield 3. Even as someone who likes modern war shooters, that game's total wank.

There are a lot of games that I got in Humble Bundles that fall into this category. Usually I buy them with the intention of only playing a couple of games from them, especially because a lot of them are in genres that simply don't interest me (puzzle games, for example).

I own a few games that I've never played, they came with my graphics cards I think...

I did buy Black Ops 2 but I only installed Zombies, I can't care less for the normal multi-player or single player.

Maybe shocking to some:

Medieval 2: Total War

I just... I don't. I don't want to start it up again. It's not fun... I liked empire more than this!

I also have a whole list in steam titled "do not install". It's mostly puzzle games and stuff I got from a previous bundle.

I picked up Anno 2070 and Civ V during a Steam sale. To be honest, I have no real intention of playing either.

I consider that money well spent.

Dragon Age: Origins. Or was it Dragon Age 2?

Maybe Dragon Age? I honestly don't know. It was cheap and I got a lot of in game bonuses I'll never get to use.

Every game in my cabinet after I get the platinum trophy in them.. could and should trade them in, but I just don't have the heart to get rid of some of them.

This may be cheating, but both my little brother and I have a PS3, and he (for some completely inexplicable reason) got Duke Nukem Forever for his. I've played through all of his other games, but I have absolutely no interest in touching that. From what I heard about it, playing it would be like voluntarily subjecting myself to some kind of bizarre torture. Never gonna play it.

As for a game that I own, I suppose I would say both Little Deviants on the PS Vita, and Final Fantasy VIII as a PSOne classic. Deviants came in the First Edition Bundle with my Vita, and while I initially intended to at least give it a try, reviews dubbing it as 'shovelware' kept from doing so. I got enough of shovelware games on my friend's Wii. We were so desperate to play anything on that thing...

As for FFVIII I downloaded it back in the summer, when I really wanted to get some use out of my Vita. I actually started playing it, but the cast of characters is so completely unlikable that I have no intention of finishing it. Which is odd, because I liked Squall just fine in the Kingdom Hearts games (where he was christened 'Leon'). I guess it's just who he's paired up with. The voice-acting probably helped a bit, too. Whenever I read his dialogue, I always made it sound like a huffy teenager. Can't be bothered to finish it when I have absolutely no interest in what happens to the characters.

Elder Scrolls: Oblivion (PC)
I have kinda played on the 360 (Dark Brotherhood quests) I picked up the 5th Anniversary edition for the PC, I've even installed it, I just have no interest in going any further!

Jet Set Radio (Playstation Store)
I Played Jet Set Radio on the DreamCast and loved it to bits, so whe it was re-released in shinny HD I bought it again, I downloaded it and now it's sat there taking up space on my harddrive!

Quite a few unfortunatly, fallout3/new vegas, skyrim, .hack//quarantine, ffx/x-2, kingdom hearts 1/2, and persona 4.
Fallout 3 because the gnr station is broke and i can't play it without that station love gnr (hate 3dog gets annoying fast).
New vegas...because fuck new vegas....just can not get into it...
Skyrim, which i do need to play (still haven't beaten it once), just...it is so damn boring...i play for about 2 minutes then just stop and go do something else...after morrowind elder scrolls just are not nearly that good...so much missing content (and before anyone suggests it i can't get mods because of shity net connection only able to use so much a day :/)
.hack//quarantine because i need to play the first 3 again to get a good save up (can't start it just from scratch)
FFx/2 just can't be bothered to play x and didn't want to start x-2 without going on a refresher course of x.
Beaten kh2 already but want to do it again...but i have kh also now and my mind won't let me play it till i beat 1 since i never have anyway >.>
Persona 4 i will get to playing once im done with 3...just got to actually play 3 enough to beat (rather like it just don't get around to playing it any before i need to sleep:/). Only managed to get a copy of these this last year just started 3 a week ago (been trying to get/play them since 4 came out) heard they were fun and have some character moments that may interest me.
I am also highly indecisive and take nearly an hour to chose one to play each time i get a chance to play >.>

i bought super meat boy purely because when i got it it was "cool" to play super meat boy. I did play it like once but i did not enjoy it as much as everyone else did.

Gotham City Imposters. Got it with the Batman: Arkham City and Asylum pack, but if I were going to play a class-based FPS I'd go play TF2.

Why? i know that getting the big achievement or platinum trophy is a big deal but was there any game you ever played again? I just think what makes or breaks a game is replay value. Take gears of war for example, i played throught the whole series and somewhat enjoyed it, but i never played it again. Look at a game like just cause 2 that i have put about 350 hours in and i am still not bored with it.

"Neverwinter Nights" on the PC.

I love RPGs and I used to play tabletop D&D when I was a tyke, so this should be a slam dunk of awesome.

But it wasn't. And for the life of me I can't figure out why. I just found it kind of...eh.

Anyway, it's resting on shelf until I decide to tackle it again.

I would just sell .hack//quarantine. It's worth quite a bit now.

Just Cause 2: It is a nice game but I can't bring myself to cause that much of destruction
Amnesia. I'm still scared of it. I do want to play but I'm afraid to get a cardiac arrest.
Braid. Didn't finish it and will never do, because I don't like it and wish I didn't buy it.

Darksiders. Got it in the THQ bundle, looks just awful.
Pretty much this. I get every single humble bundle, and with the THQ one especially, it's very rare for me to play all of the games given to me.
