I'm #4 for Psychonauts, though I might get back on that one. I'm down to the last patient at the asylum.

I know for sure I'll never finish God of War 2 though. The approach toward the end boss is a dragging pain.
Nor will I ever finish Gears of War. I played it up to the boss on the train (is it the General? Is it the last one? No idea) with a friend of mine and we just don't feel like bothering anymore.
FFX-2, I'm up to 89%, tried to get everything the first time around and just get bored. I got farther than in FFX though, where I got bored to death just about halfway through.

Fraser:
The excellent gear present in the expansion should make BG's boss easier. But who cares, he's a total bastard with or without anyway. If you got that far just look up the ending video on youtube.

Honestly? Final Fantasy VII. I saved right outside Sephiroth, and never bothered to beat him. In my defense, I'd already seen someone else do it, so there was no mystery beyond the Northern Crater.

I have never finished LoZ:MM (without cheats; I play it on emulator, though i do have the actual game cartridge).
I have never finished Golden Sun 2 (that is watching to the end of the ending cinema, because i want to keep playing with my redicously overpowered characters).
And I have never finished Sword Of Mana (same reasons as above).

Disgaea 2- the second battle in the very last chapter keeps me from going on(the one after time trials, I think). It's just so hard(that's what she said)

MGS3 subsistence-Made it to the part with eva but finished the original so son't feel like continuing anymore

Crash of the titans-Last level, just lost all the will to play anymore

GTA IV.

To busy causing mayhem and destruction to do the missions.

I've never finished KotOR. I've gotten all the way to Malak to find that he has stupidly high defence and will which allows him to block every single attack that my bare minimum strength character can throw at him. Also, my only save was right before I went into the room to fight him so I didn't think that I'd be able to go back and train.

Motorstorm: The rubberbanding AI is designed to send you into a blood rage.

Oblivion: The repetitive difficulty of the scaling AI and simple combat system just makes it feel like a job now.

Totally agree with you on Oblivion. What's the point of a leveling system if the entire game scales to you? Dumbest idea ever, totally kills a sense of progress.

I loved the first Rogue Squadron on N64, but I could never play the Battle of Hoth level, which requires Gold medals on every single other mission. The bane of this lofty goal is the Assault on Sullust and Moff Seerdon's Revenge missions, both of which possess an obnoxious number of missile turrets and TIE Interceptors. Seerdon's shuttle is an absolute bastard to shoot down, and I have yet to find any way to play Assault on Sullust that doesn't have you losing two of your three lives... if you're lucky. So I eventually gave up on it. Not much of a reward, really.

The Witcher...made it to the last chapter before the epilogue, then lost motivation...just gets old after a while and I missed the multiplayer-aspect of games.

Okami. I've never played a Legend of Zelda game (yeah, I admit it) so I just didn't expect how long the game would be. I thought it would be over once you defeated that multi-headed demon (or rather, when the wannabe samurai defeated it), but it wasn't. I continued on for quite a bit longer, though, but then I got to a part where I had to go in a Wind-Waker-esque boat to search for something or other. I couldn't find it and had to return the game to the rental store, and I haven't gotten back to it because there's no room for my PS2 in my dorm.

Sly 3 =/

Couldn't finish the last 'heist'. I'd love to replay the game, and maybe this time I could actually finish it. I was still pretty young when I first played it n.n

Max Payne 2 - I was at the very end where i have to shoot a guy down by shooting at some metal things to make them fail. It would take me maybe 1 minute, but i just couldn't be bothered.

A similar thing was with Max Payne 1. All I had to do was exit a building (the door was 10 meters away) and shoot a grenade against a metal construction on the roof that would fall on a chopper. It took me over a year to do it (game time 2 minutes max).

Hitman 1, 2 & 3 - all were the last level or the second last level, I just couldn't be bothered. I promise I'll finish Hitman 4 when it comes out.

Company of Heroes - last mission and my game crashed. never touched the campaign again.

Bioshock. I got as far as playing dress up with big daddy's clothes and never picked it up. I just have no intention of beating it.

Twilight Princess. I suppose I realized that its not going to be as good as Ocarina of Time and wasn't even as fun as Wind Waker so I lost interest.

psychonauts, everything's easy except that mix of oleander's and raz's mind, and that is difficult enough to make me want to kill myself.

Star Ocean: Till The End Of Time.

All I have to do is take down that damned last boss, but the amount of times he's murdered me just stopped me playing altogether.

I just started the final boss battle in "Heavenly Sword" (which I owned) and then decided to trade the game in. Many months later I realised I should have completed it, rented the game and played through just to complete it.

F.E.A.R Extraction Point. I was in the last area of the hospital, my computer crashed, I had it fixed a month later, re-installed the first F.E.A.R, beat it, and now can't find the case with the code I need to re-install EP.

This is only technically a not finish, but I never properly finished Prince of Persia Warrior Within. Shockingly disappointing after Sands of Time, but I played through and ended up fighting the Empress instead of the Dahaka. Didn't realise that wasn't the true ending until I played Two Thrones. Not going to be playing Warrior Within again though.

Final Fantasy 12. There are so many things preventing me from beating the game I've had since 2 Christmases ago. First, my save file got deleted after I'd beaten Raithwall's Tomb. Secondly, after I finally picked it up after that (Year and a half...), Brawl came out and I lost interest. Now,


Also, with Fallout 3 and Fable 2 coming out, I doubt I'll be playing it again anytime soon.

I sort of agree with the Eternal Sonata thing, but i'm on my second playthrough- does it count if you still need to rediculous trading sequences and sidequests for achievements at double difficulty?

Dark Chronicle (or Dark Cloud 2 to in some other places), where you have to redo parts of the dungeons. I'm not quite sure how near to the end I am, but I havn't played it in so long that I don't want to finish it. Despite the fact it is an amazing game.

Majora's Mask, I wanted Ocarina of time 2. Instead I got bewildering puzzles and no motivation for finishing.

Perfect Dark 64, I spent every weekend playing it with my friends and never finished the solo play.

FF8, no notes...
