So many games, and so little time... What are some of the games you have started, that were good or at least got good reviews, that for whatever reason you haven't gotten around to finishing? Maybe you only played it for a couple hours, but then next time you went to boot up your console, something else was beckoning you, so you put it back on the shelf? Maybe you just plain didn't feel like playing it? It would seem that no matter what I do, there are always a bunch of games laying around that I have played fairly non-committaly, and I'm sure you have more than a couple as well.
Grand Theft Auto 4: I got pretty far in this one, but then one of Niko's girlfriends called and started whining about me not giving her enough attention and I stopped. I have not touched the game since then, and I never even tried the online mode.
Dragon Age Origins: I've barely scratched the surface on this one. The game is just so friggin' big that I almost feel like I won't have time to get far in it by the time school starts up again, and by then there will be other games that I will want to play since my time will be more limited.
Red Dead Redemption: Like Dragon Age, I have only played this one for a couple of hours. It's good, but like DA it takes a long time to play and I'm not sure how committed I want to get to it ATM.
Modern Warfare 2: I got pretty far in the single player, but then came the whole stupid lawsuit business and it kind of put me off to playing the game at all, especially the multiplayer since Activision is gouging prices on the add-on content. I almost sold the game, but I want to at least beat it first. Also, the split screen modes are pretty fun (even if there's no campaign co-op). Also, Bad Company 2 came out around that time and I liked it a lot better. And speaking of which...
Bad Company 2: I love this game, really I do. However, once I started the multiplayer I never really got around to finishing the main campaign. I want to at some point, but the multiplayer is so fun that I don't really play the single player much.
Little Big Planet: I've had this game for like, 2 years and I barely play it. It's a wonderful game, but I don't seem to play it much unless it's with my friends or family. I never even used the level designer.
Fallout 3: Game of the Year: I beat the original Fallout 3 before i lost all my HDD data last year, but I haven't finished my second go through the campaign so I haven't gotten around to playing any of the new content yet. I feel dumb having spent the money to buy it after whining for so many months about Xbox 360 depriving me of the new content, but I've been chipping away at it with a pretty slow pace and I want to finish the main quest first.
Oblivion: The Shivering Isles: I barely got anywhere in this because I lost my HDD data and had to start Oblivion all over again. I've barely gotten anywhere with my new file so it will probably be a long time before I finish this one.
God of War collection: I was playing this one at a fair pace, but then I got Resident Evil 5 for my birthday and never really got around to finishing it. Some of the puzzles in the first game are just plain stupid, also.
Super Street Fighter IV: I'm not sure if this one belongs here, but I have not played it nearly as much as I would like. My rank in the multiplayer SUCKS, and last night I played like 10 online matches and did not win a single one. I seriously need to start practicing again if I want to get anywhere.
Dead Space: This game is friggin' scary.
Kingdom Hearts 2: Another victim of my data loss. I need to start playing again, but I don't know when.
Final Fantasy XII: Same story, although I had already slowed down on playing it long before I lost my data. I seem to have a hard time committing to RPGs...
