Forgive the random post. It's Friday afternoon and I'm already in weekend mode 
I want to know - what games did you really get in to, but never finished? There are some rules as to what counts… it has to be a game that you played for a significant portion. It has to be a guilty confession!
You can't say you didn't finish C&C because you don't like RTS. Just as I can't say mine was Deus Ex as I never really got into it, no matter how much I wanted to like it. Half-Life could count if you got as far as Xen and then gave up because you didn't like alien landscapes.
So, for me it was Grand Theft Auto IV. For all it's sloppy controls and stupid PC requirements I enjoyed the hell out of that game. According to xfire I've sunk 113 hours into it (I know that number is actually a lot higher). But I never finished the main story! I reached the 3rd Island and finished a few missions but never got around to wrapping it up. I've since lost my original save and now can't be stuffed trying to play through it all again. It will forever be a guilty sin though, as I'm sure I would have enjoyed it to the end.
So tell me OcUK - what's your guilty confession?
