Your gaming "white whale"?

[(Insert name hear)]

Madden Moments... Some of them moments want to make me pull my hair off. But when I beat then it is so much more sweeter.

I tend to give up when I realize I am not having fun at an activity I am not being paid for. That being said, I did blow a few evenings playing "I Wana be the Guy" before I realized it was not worth it.

Was this before or after punching a hole through the wall?

Before actually.

I began playing the game as a dare from a friend. I watched the youtube play through to figure out how to complete the starting section and played through a couple screens then totally showed my friend up by getting further than he ever did.

I remember laughing my head off during the first screen with the moving spiked walls. Each death was like a punchline of a really bad joke told by the game designer.

The throwing knives of MW2. I can't hit anyone more than two feet away with one.

L4D2 On expert using only pistols. ITS HARD! That and WOW beginning to end by completing every mission in an area before moving on to the next. ITS HARDER! especially when you realise you can make a level 50 character in like 2 days but 2 days later you have covered 4 areas and your still only a level 24 or something. Actually, why do I bother with that?

Killzone 2 On hardest difficulty... It's impossible!

Slightly off topic but this game was so bad on medium that why would you play it on hardest!

trying to 100% burnout paradise. i suck at stunt runs and get bored of showtime so it's been a struggle to get this far. I have 20 events, a few billboards and smash gates and too many road rules left :/

I don't get "Your White Whale" What does it mean ?

Go read Moby Dick, then come back and give your reply.

My white whale is Icewind Dale, really liked the game, just never could finish it, now I lost my copy...my whale has won...

What is Moby Dick ? A Novel ?

Fallout 3's pointless map, definitely. I can never find a way around Rivet City, they say I'm supposed to be there, but where exactly? THERE'S NO MAP!

There's an intercom on top of the tower near it, activate it and the bridge will come across.
If that's what you're saying.

Nope what I mean is just Fallout 3's bad PipBoy map IT DOES NOTHING!

Are you saying you can't get to Rivet City or that you can't figure out where stuff is on the ship?

If the former, there are two good ways to get there:

1) Go south from Super-Duper Mart past Wilhelm's Wharf and the Anchorage War Memorial, making a left onto the bridge just shy of the Citadel. Follow the river southward (watch out for the many Super Mutants) and go past the Jefferson Memorial (stop by the Memorial Rotunda if you don't mind a little sequence breaking on the main quest, otherwise continue to Rivet City). Hang a left after the metal walkway in front of the Memorial---you can't miss it.

2) Starting at Galaxy News Radio, go out the back door like you're headed to the Museum of Technology, but when you get to the Metro station just keep going south through the tunnels to Anacostia Crossing. You'll pop out of the tunnel right at Rivet City (watch out; if you saved Megaton, you'll probably get a random encounter with Talon Company mercs when you pop out of the tunnel.) If you pop out at Seward Square, go back into the Metro station and go straight across the Raider-infested platform to the exit on the other side. It'll say "Exit to Anacostia Station".

No, the latter is what I mean.

Final Fantasy VII. I've been trying to beat that game for about 8 years. I just can't bring myself to; something always gets in the way.

Raise Chocobos, get Knights of the Round, go into battle with Sephiroth, press summon button, go out to lunch. When you come back, the animation sequence should just about be finished and you can claim your prize.

Star Wars Rogue Squadron 2 for the Gamecube. I spent forever and a day trying to get all golds and never did do it, but it was one of those things I spent entire nights on.
