Final Fantasy VI, X and XII.
In VI I got as far as the pre-final dungeon world-hopping. You all know that phase of a game, where the final dungeon/boss/mission is open to you, but you're given the option to run around the world completing side-quests and getting yourself geared for the final showdown. For some strange reason though, that's typically where a game loses me. In fact, swap the "VI for "X" and the rest of the story can stay the same.
XII was a little different, as I'm not sure how far I had actually gotten through the game. My best guess is that I was only about half-way through before I decided I'd had enough. I think I recall something like a green elder wyrm... and it kicked my ass.
Anyway, in all three cases, the games themselves were thoroughly enjoyable, but for any combination of reasons, I hadn't felt compelled to finish them. Now, so many years after the fact, I feel like getting the games and consoles needed to actually finish them would be me paying more money than what I would be getting out of what I have left to play.

The Shadow of the Colossus.

Yeah yeah. How could I not finish it? I know what you mean.

Eh. Amazing game, but I got stuck like 2/3rds in.

Borderlands -- was getting too monotonous because I had to do every sidequest I came across. It took me ten hours of gameplay before I left the Arid Badlands.

Metro 2033 -- The fucking Library. Librarians are the definition of bulletsponges.

Fallout 3 Broken Steel -- enemies become stupidly hard, absorbing shotgun shells point blank to the face and pretty much killing you in five shots (Fucking Overlords).

Throw Assassins Creed 2 and Brotherhood and you've summed mine up really well.

I love playing ALL of these games but I just can't seem to make myself finish them lol

Out of the land of the obscure: State of Emergency for PS2. So much fun running around killing people. Also the first game I can recall where I was able to beat people to death with the leg of someone I blew up.

Spilt seconed. I love playing it but somewhere along the way I just stoped playing it. I think anothet game I wanted came out and I just got caught up in that instead. Id like to pick it up again if I have the time.

Bioshock, and I probably won't go back.

Vampire: The Masquerade and I do plan to go back.

Prince of Persia: The Two Towers, I'm not sure. It had its good points, but the boss fights were getting aggravating.

Resonance of Fate. I pick it back up about every 2 months or so, but it's a hard-ass fuckin' game, and the game doesn't feed you a steady stream of "What's gonna happen next?" cutscenes, mostly just awesome humor, though as of the end of Chapter 6, that seems to be changing. The end result is I just feel completely satisfied with my experience up to that point, and also feel terrified enough of the future, that I put the game away for a while. Then re-play MGS4. AGAIN.

I've played quite a few Legend of Zelda games, but I have never finished one. I like them enough, I suppose, but I don't love them. I think the lack of a story or much substance to the combat(in the ones I played) was what kept me from coming back.

Red Dead Redemption, save game corruption right at the last mission I believe >.<
Metro 2033, as the poster above, couldn't get through the hallway with amoebas.
Assassin's Creed Brotherhood.. just lost interest.

Generally speaking, if I'm enjoying a game and it starts throwing absurdly unfair stuff at me... I don't struggle on, I don't have the time for that.

I'll say Infamous 2. I finished the good karma. Evil will have to wait after I sort out my school life

Fallout 3, Fallout New Vegas, Oblivion, Dragon Age Origins, Dead Rising 2, and ALL Total War games.

All great games in their own right, I just never get round to them.
