I'm pretty ashamed that I never beat any Star Ocean game. I love the series, love the combat, love the characters. It sounds like I should have beaten them all, but alas I have failed every time. Lol, I guess I just get ADD and move onto something else. I'm currently watching Star Ocean 4 collect dust under my television. :(

Dragon Quest: The Journey of the Cursed King. I'm stuck at Dhoulmagus and I don't know how to beat the guy. He's so f***ing hard!!!

In terms of beating 100%, then Fallout 3. I have 49 of the 50 trophies (notincluding platinum) and the only one I'm missing is to collect 20 bobbleheads. BUT I ACCIDENTALLY BLEW UP RAVEN ROCK WITHOUT GETTING THE LAST ONE!!! It makes me cry at night.

In terms of just beating, then surely GTA 4. I just can't beat Museum Piece.

My game that i will always return to is Resident Evil on the PS1 (Yeah i still own a PS1) i have been playing that game ever since i was small enough to scared shitless by the slowly turning zombie in the first cutscene of the game i can still remember running out my room "MUMMY THERE IS A MONSTER IF MY TELLY!" Ah.. the joys of being 8 :)

I just never beat Elder Scrolls IV:Oblivion. I would always keep making new accounts and doing different things. I would start the main quest and then stop because i would get a new game.

Super Mario 64, it was back when I wasn't really a big gamer, I made it to the final Bowser many times, but for some reason I couldn't seem to beat him, and then I would stop playing for a while, and when I started playing again I would always start a new game, I spent so many hours with that game, it pretty much single-handedly got me into gaming.

Runner up: GTA3, I played this alot too but most of the time I would just screw around, I got to the third island twice, and both times the save game would screw up, I made it the farthest I ever had, the third time I played through, but my friend dropped it on the floor one day andf it got scratched, and it didn't work anymore.

Zelda's Majora's Mask was the one. I think it was also my first pre-order. After a week of playing, things got ugly at home, so i decided to "run away." So i went to the store, told them i wanted to sell my less than a week bought game back, thinking that out of the 72(ish) bucks spent i'd at least get half and use that money on bus tickets, when BAM! The clerk hands me a store-credit receipt. I was so shocked and in utter disbelief that they didn't give me cash back... that i walked back home... unpacked my things... and kept going back to miserable life.

reCAPTCHA: with extremes
of course, i did have a hardcore "rough" middle class life.

As the Norwegian King of Names, I am very sad I have never beaten Pokemon Blue. Being preoccupied with determining my Norwegian subjects' names, I stupidly chose a squirtle as my starter, and stupidly chose to level up a Far Fetched, Pidgeotto and Spearrow, leaving me totally unprepared for the Elite Four. Bloody birds...

I think probably God Of War II, simply because it took me less than a week to finish the first one but by the time the second one came out I was playing mostly on the 360 and it was a hassle to connect up the PS2 for just one game!

Fallout 2. I beat the first one, but I just somehow never got around to beating the sequel.

GTA IV. I tried that last mission about ten times back-to-back, but it's so long and there are so many things that can go wrong. The absolute worst was when the game glitched out on me and I fell THROUGH the boat near the dock. I wound up drowning because I couldn't move. After that I set GTA IV aside and said I'd come back to it after my mind-numbing rage had worn off, but I still haven't and that was about 6 months ago.

And, of course, I'm the kind of person who refuses to move on to the DLC before I've finished the main game, so I have yet to even purchase The Lost and the Damned.

I can't remember why I stopped playing. Maybe one of the puzzles baffled me, maybe something else came out and pulled my attention away, or maybe I got tired of dragging that wasp bitch around.

Sonic Unleashed.

I managed to put up with all the glitches and the stupid camera troubles in the EggmanLand level (also,why do you have to switch between Sonic and the werehog every 2 mins? WHY!?!) and then managed to beat Eggman straight after; I knew I needed to face at least another boss battle, but I didn't know that I needed to play as a annoying Power Rangers megazord reject with Chip's horrible voice who yells every 2 seconds!

Every time I get close to beating the damn creature for the first time (before the Super Sonic section); during the section were Sonic's racing around, he decides to go out of control and commits suicide! The camera goes crazy (again!) and I just lose my temper...

Why am I ashamed you ask? This game is aimed at 7 years and if someone that age can complete the game and I can't, well that's just quite embarrassing.

I try to complete it, I really do; but by the time I get to the boss again I just get too annoyed to care about anymore. I'd just rather play one of the Sonic stages again and pretend to myself that I've completed it.

for me its chrono trigger and ff9. i love chrono trigger, ive played through it like 8 times but everytime i get to the end to fight lavos i just lose to him a few times and give up or stop playing before i fight him. I made it to the very last fight in FF9 but i just never completed it. i Didn't even fight him once, i might have won, who knows.
