Black & White : Crap. Had it for about 10 years & hated it from the moment I bought it

Same here! That game put me off the Molyneux a bit - because of it I didn't buy Fable until 2010, when a dscussion of games (possibly even on this forum) made me admit that I've liked 80% of the Molyneux games I'd bought (I'm weird and loved Syndicate  )

Fable 1 and 2.
I have a LOT of games that I call my 'One Day' list.
I just haven't had the time lately (or last year for that matter). Every time I think I get a chance to play...it ends up on paused for too long that I find myself saving and telling myself I'll get back to it later and rinse and repeat.

I was surprised to see it on here a couple of times but ya Skyrim is one I probably wont finish.

The amount of people saying Witcher 1/2 in this thread have almost made me lose my faith in humanity ...

I'll normally keep playing until I finish all my games, even if I'm not enjoying them, even if its only on the basis that "I paid for this so if I quit, its a waste". A game would have to be spectacularly horrible in my eyes, or just outright broken, for me to not finish it.

But there was one game that I gave up on recently. King Arthur the Role Playing Wargame. I got a free copy with my subscription to PC Gamer UK. I'm sure the developers were hoping lots of players would enjoy it, and buy the just released KA2.

Anyway, it wasn't a bad game. I actually kind of enjoyed it. As an RPG fan who has also played about 100 hours of Total War Shogun 2 (although hardly an RTS expert) I saw alot of interesting ways that the 2 genres had been mixed.

Unfortunately, after about 15 hours, I got into a war with another faction which seemed totally unwinnable. To begin with their military strength rating was vastly superior to mine. I managed to take advantage of some poor AI to win pretty much every battle against them, but after about 5-10 more hours I hadn't made any progress towards capturing their towns and actually winning the war. It seemed like no matter how many of their generals I captured and left to die in my dungeon, they always had more coming. In this game, generals are not built, they are recruited by completing quests and all have actual names. So in theory all I had to do was methodically pick off their generals while keeping mine alive, and evetually I'd be able to push forward. And then I noticed something. I killed a general called "Sir Geralt", whose name stuck in my head because I'm a fan of the Witcher. I was sure I'd already killed him before. Sure enough, an hour or so later, I killed him again.

That's when I realised that every time I killed a general, s/he was just respawning to lead another army. But if I couldn't kill them for good, I'd never be able to make any progress. Such a shame for a nice game to spoil itself in that way, and its probably put me off buying the sequel as well

Skyrim... probably

[RogueState]

Fallout 3 and Fallout NV. I've got about halfway through both!

I really enjoyed playing both of them but I always get distracted by another game and I haven't got around to finishing either, I probably never will!

[Moondoggie]

Persona 4. I bought it together with Persona 3 and after finishing 3 i never bothered to start the 4th one. Just sits on my shelf as it has done for years in it's wrapping.

Also Fallout 3 i just find it too mind numbingly boring to bother with it anymore.

But... That's it. It's like Sims. You can't 'complete' it, especially at the space stage.

Way too many to list - before this generation my game completion rate was very low because I get bored and move on quickily, but these days I've got a good idea of what I want to play so I'm not so bad.

Among games this generation though...
Fallout 3 - good game but I keep getting RPGs I'm more interested in
Oblivion - haven't played it much, I find it too boring
STALKER - can't see me reinstalling it and bothering to play through it, although it seemed a good game

My list of games I own that I haven't even played yet is longer.

Further to the recent topic about games you haven't "got around to" playing through, I was wondering do you guys have any games in your library that you will probably never complete, and if you do why?

For example, here are two of mine:

Dead Space -  every time I play it, it makes me want to play "another space-based horror game" and I end up playing that instead.

Crysis Warhead - when you're not playing through it to see the amazing graphics any more, I think Crysis gameplay eventually gets quite boring.

Another space-based horror game? What game is that?

Anyway, mine are -

Final Fantasy 13 - I got to disc 2 and couldn't bring myself to play further, just so BOORRRRRIINNNGGG!
Dead Island - It got too repetitive and the story was interesting,, plus it's already been traded in so there's no chance of finishing it now.
Oblivion - I like Skyrim and love fallout series, but Oblivion is repetitive with all the oblivion gates popping up everywhere. Characters are butt ugly and far too many people where everyone practically says the same thing so it's hard to find a character that is actually interesting.

forgot to mention Evil Dead Regeneration. i got to the end boss, but crap PC controls and a boss that heals prevented me from finishing it. it's an interruptable heal, but crap controls prevented me from doing that.

Fatal Frame 1, 2, and 3.

I've played a lot of horror games.... but for some reason ghosts scare me more than anything else.

I don't scare very easily, but damn if I couldn't even make it through the first half of Fatal Frame 2. That game is hella scary tbh.

Anyway, I've been sitting on Halo: Reach and Arkham Asylum for a while, and have just had zero interest in playing either. I'm all about Skyrim right now (though I'm taking a break to replay ME1 and 2), with ME3 right around the corner. I'm also planning another run through DA:O in the near future.

In addition, I'm considering checking out Kingdoms of Amalur, and Hitman: Absolution and Resident Evil 6 are also on the horizon. So it could be a very long time before I ever touch any other game, not just Halo and Arkham Asylum.

EDIT: Also, Dragon Age 2. I started to play it a few months ago, but lost interest and went back to playing DA:O. It's the first and only Bioware game I've played that failed to capture my interest.

I suppose I'll try to play it again sometime soon. But not until after another run through DA:O first.

Aw Fatal Frame is so much fun! Just play with the lights on

Or, have either of you ladies watch 4 player podcast with Brad? That crap is hilarious. You should watch him play the games then feel great about yourselves when you play

Dark Souls- Way too freaking hard. I like the game itself but its too hard. And whenever I sign on XBL I can't find other players :-p

Final Fantasy- I just can never finish the games.

Etrian Odyssey 2/3- Challenging...a bit too challenging. But I like it better than FF.

Morrowind- The game is so clunky that I can barely get past the first part. Horrible combat and controls.

I do plan to finish Skyrim but it won't be for a while. I still haven't figured out just who my main/canon Dragonborn is going to be and I've been away at school so I haven't had much time to play.

[Forst1999]

Only some old ones, in recent years my game picks were lucky.
Escape from Monkey Island - Horrible controls
Dungeon Siege - Boring as hell
Black & White - Quite a hype victim here
Several Civilization titles - I love the idea, but always forgot that i find the games boring
Sacred - Enemies respawning as soon as they aren't on the screen anymore? Annoying!
Some newer cases:
Team Fortress 2 - Well, it was in the Orange Box, but i don't like to play online
Viva Pinata, Kung Fu Panda & Lego Indiana Jones - They were included with my Xbox, but i never played them

[JediHealerCosmin]

Baldur's Gate 2

Now, before anyone starts flaming me with the invisible but agonizing missile launcher, let me just make a confession:   i keep dying on the first level...

I suck... hard at this game. I like it, I want to find out how the story progresses... but I am terrible at it.

I finished both DA games on nightmare, ME2 on insanity multiple times... but I can't pass the dungeon level in BG2 on easy...       Yes, I am an awful player, I know.

Morrowind, played it for 20 mins, gave up and got Skyrim. and yes I have finished oblivion (twice)
