The "I am finally going to finish that damn game" thread

For me:

Morrowind (+ expansions)
Oblivion (+ expansions)
STALKER
KotOR 2
Final Fantasy XII (not PC I know) – love the steam punk element to this game
Far Cry
Thief II – again, love the steam punk and level design

Stalker... every couple of months I install it, play the first mission, feel a wave of meh wash over me and uninstall. One day though...

Me too :o

FFX

The first time around I got the start of the final Sin stage (70+ hours playtime), and my sister-in-law accidentally cleared the entire memory card :(

I'm in the Via Purifico at the mo :D

Go go go! Amazing game :)

Slightly disappointing how easy the final battle is though. Plenty of nigh-on impossible bosses to fight first though – Penance anyone?

I also love the music from the Via Purifico; I have the entire soundtrack – all 91 tracks of it :)

Resistance.

Too hard :o

The number of times I attempted some of those missions…

Final Fantasies: IV, VI, VIII, XII. (XII is an effin' grindfest. :\)
Sonic the Hedgehog 2. Could never beat that last boss.
The Legend of Zelda: The Ocarina of Time.
Pokémon Yellow after the cartridge started refusing to save.

And quite a few more that I care about quite a bit less. >>
 
to the above^^: sonic 2 last boss is easy, i re-did it after about 6 years of not touching the mega drive with my last life with no more continues (finally figured out how to do it). I'd barely lost a life before that :D

I'd quite like to do the Zelda's but it just got so hard to figure out what to do most of the time.

Stalker - pffft. So repetitive and the aiming system is ridiculous. You cant shoot more than like 10 yards away, if you do you have to click one bullet at a time waiting for a second in between each shot.
 
I'm going to reinstall Vietcong and try not to be distracted by the brilliant Multiplayer (if MP is still alive).
 
I finished Mass Effect last week - was the first time I've ever completed a RPG :D. Playing through Fable at the mo to see if it tickles my RPG funny bone.

Have the following games in various states of uncompletion:
S.T.A.L.K.E.R
Bioshock
Super Mario Galaxy

I got these lined up for the laptop when I'm travelling away from home:
The Longest Journey 1 and 2
Broken Sword 1 and 2

Finally - going to play through The Witcher when the enhanced edition arrives. Having heard it's praises sung on this forum has inspired me to get a copy when it arrives (I was going to give this a miss originally).
 
commandos BEL, been 6-7 years in the making now :D , i do a level every so often.............. really need to complete this awesome game. It's a bit tricker on my core2duo 2.2ghz lappy then on my p2 333mhz as the enemy are a lot faster :(
 
Only got about and hour or so in over the weekend of Doom 3, and was thinking that its actually a bit dull. Was playing on Veteran. Am going to re-start again tonight on easiest setting so that I can get through it quicker.

Thank God I never bought the expansion!

Then I really have to finish the single player campaign of COD 4 this week.
 
Just got a 4850 so Stalker for me, its a cracking game, but i just never get around to finishing, ive only got as far as the Bar lol, but im gona make the effort now. :D

I did Doom 3 donkey's ago, i only got as far as the Spiders then gave up, then a while later i thought, im gona restart this and finish it, so i did, and i enjoyed it to, seems to get better the further in you get. :)

Yeah I'm in the S.T.A.L.K.E.R group..

I felt like a few of you.. Played the first 2 hrs and thought; what is the point.
I found it a badly coded game and just couldnt be bothered.

But about 2 weeks ago I thought screw it.. I bought the damn game because the story line really appealed to me, I waited ages for it to come out, so there must be something to it.

And you know what... Even tho its still quite buggy, I'm hooked.
Playing through it for real this time (@ the Lab x16 mission) You really start to appreciate the expanse of the actual game. Sure there are a few things that still annoy me about the game; but after getting this far with it I hope I'll be able to stay with it and crack it just in time for clear sky and possibly Fallout 3.

Oh and still got to finish GTA:SA.
Hopefully I'll get round to that before GTA:IV hits the PC:D

Farcry
I've had my save for this for a few years now and have never bothered to finish the game, i think i'm near the end of the game but i just can't be bothered to finish it

Prey
I bought this off steam a couple of months ago when it was on offer for $5 but i just can't get into it
 
I'm going to reinstall Vietcong and try not to be distracted by the brilliant Multiplayer (if MP is still alive).

Strongly recommend you do that! It's been a while since I played, but it's truly superb. Some awesome moments.... including the hill defence, and the last level is brilliantly well done, not just 'hard for hard's sake'

*goes off to reinstall Vietcong and Fist Alpha*
