When I buy a video game, my aim is to complete it or at least complete the main parts to it. Then I move on to another game that suits my interest. There are a few games that i've worked hard on to complete, but failed. Some of these games are:

Goldeneye 007 (N64)
Resistance (PS3)
Final Fantasy X-2 (PS2)
and of course, Guitar Hero III (360) [but you already assumed that].

So NG, any games that you tried so hard to complete but haven't?

When I shop at harvey nicks, everyone thinks i'm a star. Cause I wear wear my rented blazer and step out my rented car.

Travelling around in the spaceship thing really ruined the game. It should've been more like previous one.

Majorias mask and all the tomb raiders that I own were the only games I didn't bother finishing.

I found those games just too boring.

Final Fantasy VI. I think it was the hardest Final Fantasy I ever played. It wasn't that bad, until I got to that strange sky place. I haven't finished XII yet, either, but that's because it sucks, not because it's hard.

Guitar Hero 3 on Hard and Expert, Guitar Hero 2 on Expert and Resident Evil 4 on Professional (it's not too hard, I just can't be fucked).

I gave up on The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass once I reached the Isle of the Dead since I had no idea what to do, then I just completely forgot that I even owned the game. Of course I gave it a second try, which resulted in me figuring out what to do fairly quickly, now I've completed the game.

Driver 2 for the PS1. For some reason I could never make it through the last level. It's the one in Rio where you had to follow the chopper while avoiding all the gangs and the cops. Very bloody hard...

Battletoads.

I wanna beat that game so bad, but it (literally) is one of the hardest games ever.

elder scrolls: oblivion, completed main quest, dark brotherhood and arena and maybe one or two other sidequests, then it started to bore me, there was a truckload of sidequests available, but none were of my interest.)

thief: deadly shadows, didn't bother doing the last couple of levels, i always end up sneaking up and then getting a truckload of people behind me all the sudden, then i usually die. then i un-installed it.

unreal tournament 2004 single-player, couldn't beat the last mission. god-mode bots are almost insta-kills everytime they see you. thank god there was still multiplayer which kicked ass.

half-life 2: episode one, in the mission where your train stops at some zombie-cluttered fuck-hell you rely on your flashlight, my first though was that i had to strafe thru the entire map as fast as possible whilst collecting energy, every time my flashlight ran out and i was in total darkness, later i found out (when i un-installed the game) the flashlight re-energizes itself when you turn it off. never bothered to install the game after that.

That would mean that you had played the game without playing the prior half life games and hence forth not understanding the story propaly, shame on you...

i already got the story since i've been reading spoilers anywhere, i've played HL2:EP1 first because i couldn't get my hands on the originial HL2.

also, i did play half-life before i played EP1. ;)
