Those timeless classics that everyone's beaten... or have they?

[ThatLankyBastard]

I've never beaten Star Fox on the N64..

...so many wasted hours...

Wait, what?

Not even on the easy path?

Hell, I finished it on expert mode, on the hard path, on my first go.

Bloody youngsters these days, grumble grumble...

Aww... I'm sorry

*cries*

 

[ReservoirAngel]

I'll admit it...I've never beaten Ocarina of Time. I've SEEN it beaten, but never done it myself.

Same with Super Mario Bros. Played it excessively, but could never finish it.

 

[ham and red bull]

I have never played a single game before the ps1 era, so yeah! I even missed out on Metal Gear Solid, mostly because I was too young to know about it! And I've just started playing MGS3.

 

[onewheeled]

I guess it counts as a classic, but
[HEADING=3]I have never beaten Knights of The Old Republic.[/HEADING]

In my current playthrough I'm actually the farthest I've ever gotten, I've just gained Zaalbar (Zalbaar? Mission's Wookie buddy, I dunno how to spell it.) on Taris as an ally, so I'm still super early. I always just lose interest as soon as I get to the sewer part. But now I'm determined to finally finish the game that everybody claims to be one of Bioware's best games.

I had James Pond 2: RoboCod on DOS and there were about 100 levels or something, and didn't allow saving at any point as far as I could tell. So When I wanted to play it, I had to have the whole afternoon free. I'd get through about half of the game and have to leave it there, knowing next time I'd have to start from scratch. Boy it was great though. Best console-ish PC platformer I ever saw.

Oh and don't laugh, but I never played the missions in TIE Fighter. I spent all my time in the Combat Chamber. I guess I thought I wouldn't be good enough for the missions until I did everything in the Combat Chamber and the Training Simulator, I never even got to finish those, since once I discovered dogfighting in the TIE Defender, it was all I ever wanted to do...

I haven't beaten any of the final fantasy games before 7. I really need to get around to it sometime.

 

[Kabutos]

I'll probably get some flak from this, but I've never finished a Zelda game.

I played some of Link to the Past and Majora's Mask, but the series never appealed to me.

 

[Nimcha]

I've never finished any Mario, Zelda or any other 'classic' Nintendo game. They do not interest me. In fact I'd say most classic games don't interest me, I just don't like playing in 2D.

 

[Daffy F]

Pretty much none of them. I played Ocarina of Time... I didn't like it, so I stopped. The only classics I played were the original Pokemon Games, Rayman (The GOOD one) and Crash Bandicoot.

 

[JourneyThroughHell]

What's Deus Ex? What's the original Half-Life? What's any Nintendo game? What's Doom? What's Quake? What's Silent Hill 2? What's Shadow Of The Colossus?

Yes, played none of those. Haven't played that many truly classic games. I'm more of a modern gamer - my lair is Call Of Duty, Mass Effect and Uncharted.

 

[KuwaSanjuro]

I've never beaten the early Zelda's, Ocarina of Time was my first, but you got to remember the older games were also much harder because there was only a few video games released a year, not millions like it today. I say this because Spyro the Dragon on PSone is one of the hardest games I ever played and never completed.

 

[rockyoumonkeys]

I never beat Super Mario 2 on the NES, but I did beat the Game Boy Advance port.

Never beat Zelda 2. Never beat the original Castlevania. Never beat Contra without the cheat code.

Never beat Xenogears or Dragon Warrior 2...these two are notable because in both games, I got right up to the very end (last boss, or just about) and never finished.

Never beat Super Mario 64. Didn't even come close, but mostly because the game bored me.

Didn't even play more than 20 minutes of Majora's Mask.

Never beat a Final Fantasy game between 2 and 6. (Beat all the others except X-2 and XIII.)

Don't think I've beat the first two Resident Evil games.

I'll try to think of more later.

 

[Cash84]

Dunno if it counts but never finished Zero's missions in GTA: SA. Finished everything else in the game but couldn't do the mission where you shoot the toy planes with a minigun.
