    For me its Sonic 1, 2, 3 etc and all the Mario games ever made.

    I was born in the times where I grew up with the nes/snes and master system/megadrive and I never once even got close to finishing some of the most well known games on the sytems. It wasn't due to a lack of time or interest but simply how much I really couldn't do it - I just wasnt good enough.

    Hell even recently I tried sonic 2 again and I still get stuck in the exact same place I did years ago. I still suck at these games and feel like I really should have the ability to finish them.


    Any game you've never completed yet it seems everyone else in the world has?

    The last three onimusha games. I like em, enjoy em, but keep going on to something else before i can finish them.

    I just recently finished Xenosaga II, after i bought it the week it came out, about 4 years ago :D

    Who wouldn't be, only Mario can defeat a Koopa so unless Twist wears overalls and has a porno 'tache he pretty much would be fucked :D

    Bioshock and GTA4. Just wasn't that into either of them. I loved Rapture but wasn't too fond of the actual game. GTA4 just wasn't the GTA I loved.

    millions of old school games for the sega, i'm convinced that the simplicity of the games is the reason i cant do them, my brain is programmed to play more complicated games of today

    - Metroid Prime - I got bored of it, that and constant backtracking.
    - Metroid Prime 3 - Traded it in for credit towards GTA4
    - GTA 4 - By the time I got to the U.L.Paper missions (which caused many a ragequit) I hated every character in the game, and never got the temptation to pick it up again. I still own it, but doubt I'll ever go back to playing it.
