Unbeat games
Xarinrex | 11:10 AM on 02.26.2008 22 comments


I was thinking, a few days ago, about the immense amount of games that I've never beat. Sure. The number started small, and tiny, but slowly it grew. I still haven't beat:
A Single Final Fantasy- 7, 8, 9, 10, 10-2
Neither of the Disgaea- Which I want to play the third one, but sadly don't own a ps3
[b]Morrowind- I got too distracted by side quests
Oblivion- Same with Morrowind
Orcarina of time- Yeah. I know. x.x;
Majora's mask- I didn't much enjoy the game as a whole, soooo never beat it.
Panzer Dragoon Orta- I actually got to the final boos, and couldn't figure out how to manuever out of his unblocked attack. My friend beat it, but forgot how. Asshole.
Guitar Hero- expert songs
DBZ budokai tenkaichi 2
Katamari Damacy- Played it, don't own it, haven't beat it
Beautiful Katamari- Rented it, got to last level and kept looooosing.
Pokemon Pearl- Lulz, I just stopped playing it

Theres plenty more, but I just can't think of 'em.

Im just wondering if anyone else has a backlog of games they haven't beat. I'm sure theres plenty, with some people owning multiple systems, thusly switching back and forth, getting distracted by -newer- games, and thusly the older ones are left in the dust.

Soooo..... I'm gonna go beat Morrowind now, heh.

You don't need to beat Guitar Hero on expert...remember the orange button is the devil!

I never finished Ocarina of time either...didn't like.

But I have a hefty list, mostly from when I got a PS2 from my brother and bought a bunch of games...then never played them.

Out of the games I have now, I still need to beat:

Halo 3, New Super Mario Bros, Final Fantasy III (DS), Super Mario Galaxy, God of War 2, Final Fantasy XII, Star Ocean: Till The End of Time, Rez (PS2), Jade Empire, Legend of Zelda: Wind Waker, Dead Head Fred, & Daxter

Maybe I'll finish a couple of them when I'm REALLY bored.

You own Panzer Dragoon Orta but didn't beat it? Go beat that game. The ending is nothing special but PDO is such a great game.

I have yet to start playing Mass Effect, Battalion Wars 2, and Twilight Princess. That was the end of my X-mas haul.

As far as other games I own that I never finished: ICO, Devil May Cry 3, and Perfect Dark.

Other notable games I never finished but played (usually rentals): Stranglehold, Devil May Cry 4 (I already know I don't feel the need to beat it... I still have it at home as I type), Spider-Man 3

PDO -was- a great ass game, and I hope they make another one soon for the 360. Nothings better than riding around on a dragon shooting lasers.

A Single Final Fantasy- 7, 8, 9, 10, 10-2

So you've finished 1-6 then?

No, I just meant the ones I've even played... I may have played 1-6 (one of 'em) when I was younger, but I can't recall. I should have specified.

Morrowind and Oblivion aren't that long if you just concentrate on doing the main quest...which is hard to do if you're really enjoying the game.

@Xarinrex

I'll be the first to tell someone how great Panzer Dragoon Orta is but I don't want to see Sega make another one. Look at Sega's recent history. Anything they touch turns into garbage. Sonic turned into absolute trash when it went 3D. Super Monkey Ball on the Wii was absolutely terrible thanks to Wiimote only controls. It was bad enough to play a Monkey Ball game that sucked but to see Panzer Dragoon turn into trash? Never.

Oh man, my list is huge. I especially have problems with open-ended RPGs since I get distracted by side-quests.

Fallout 1 and 2
Vectorman 2
Sonic 3, sonic and Knuckles (I never owned them, just borrowed)
FF 8, 10, 10 2

*WIP*
Halflife 2
Dead Rising

*Didn't particularly like*
Condemned
Turok

I know theres plenty more on that list, but I can't remember them all

I just remembered that I couldn't finish KOTOR. I got to the final boss, but my character setup was terrible for it and I didn't know I could beat the dead Jedi until after I gave upon it.

Don't worry, you're not alone in this. I haven't beat FF 10, and I haven't even started FF 10-2 and FF 12 is only half way :/

I've always had this problem, usually it's because I play so many games at once it takes a long time to get around to beating something. According to my game database there are 128 games that I've played throughout my life (or that I own and haven't started yet) that I've yet to beat.

Oh god, no matter how I try, I too cannot beat a single Final Fantasy and I've played a large number of them. Farthest I got in any of them was towards the end of the second disc in VII...>_<

Silent Hill 3 and several sidescrolling shooters like Gunstar Heroes, Gunstar Superheroes, Metal Slug Advance, and others taunt me as well, along with other VC titles.
