Games I really need to finish

Right. Let's do this.

I'm going to write a list of games which I haven't completed, as a reminder of what I really NEED to go back to. That way I've no excuse for putting this off, when I instead attempt to focus on a newer game I'm not particularly bothered about, just because it's shiny and fresh and everyone else is talking about it.

Perhaps we can discuss each other's choices, and advise what each person should be tackling first, and even if there are any which said gamer shouldn't really waste their time with.

Mass Effect (thanks, suzz)
Lost Odyssey
Persona 4
Fatal Frame IV: Mask of the Lunar Eclipse
Battlefield: Bad Company
Fallout 3
Far Cry 2
Advance Wars: Dark Conflict

Resistance 2
Bad Company
Brothers In Arms Hell's Highway
Lost Odyssey
Infinite Undiscovery
Banjo Kazooie Nuts and Bolts
Gears 2
Fable II
Prince Of Persia
Valkyria Chonicles
The Last Remnant
Spider-Man Web Of Shadows
Star Wars The Force Unleashed
Left 4 Dead
Half Life 2 Epsiode 2 :fp:

I need to be made redundant again to get through that lot.

Oh dear, not finished Fatal Frame IV - doesn't bode well...

Damn, Banjo. I'm really tempted not to actually start that after the abysmal demo. But loads of people seem to love it, so maybe I'll give its slightly groan-worthy humour, its excessive load times and its frequent traipsing back and forth another chance.

Nah, it's just that I'm a strawberry floating wuss, and it arrived at a particularly busy time. I made time for Siren, but I always find it hard to start horror games when there are other brighter, happier, less nerve-wracking games to play. I've got to start Silent Hill on Monday and I'm half-dreading it, but once I get into it I'll likely really enjoy it.

its excessive load times

Install is your friend.

Not with debug code, fella. :cry:

I dunno, I'll give it another bash. It does look lovely, and the creative stuff seems to be a lot more accessible than LBP's which I find a little overwhelming and time-consuming.

PostRe: Games I really need to finish by **Puffin** » Sun Dec 28, 2008 11:56 am

Far Cry 2 for me- Really getting into it and enjoying too.
GTA4 - starting to get hard now.

Just bought
Fallout 3
LBP
Resistance 2

I do want to start GoW and Dead Rising again too.

Plenty to play so no more purchases for ages. (yay and boo)

A full list of my unfinished games would probably overload the GRcade server, but I've been pretty good with my Q4 games. Tackling the biggies one at a time has worked wonders, and I'd have finished Fable II by now if my 360 hadn't exploded.

Anyway, here's my list.

In Progress
Fallout 3
World of Goo

To Be Finished
Fable II
Yakuza 2 (Got a bit annoyed with this though)
Little Big Planet (A fair way through the story mode)
Professor Layton

To Be Started
Red Alert 3
Valkyria Chronicles (Had a dream about this last night, weirdly)
MGS4 (Got it with my PS3)
Endwar
Resistance 2
STALKER: Clear Sky
Mount & Blade

I have a much larger list, like I said, but... it's scary.

Is Fatal Frame the Japanese copy?

How do you define finished? Seen an ending? 1000/1000 or all trophies? All the achievements you can personally get?

PostRe: Games I really need to finish by **Wedgie** » Sun Dec 28, 2008 12:42 pm

Need to finish FFXII.

But I've lost my memory card with 60 hours' worth of gameplay. :fp:

Can't be arsed to start it all up again.

Need to finish a lot of my Wii d/l games including Zelda LTTP and Super Metroid. :oops:

I tried to play Dead Rising again recently and the save system just makes it a chore to play.

When I was 12, I never had any difficultly in completing games. I wanted to. I'm just so apathetic and lazy currently that I rarely feel compelled to. Anyway, here's the list:

- Metroid Prime 3. (I really want to get into this, but I find myself deterred by the control scheme.)
- Super Mario Galaxy. (I am tackling it one star at a time, but not regularly enough.)
- Zelda: P.H. (No excuses here, other than I'm not entirely convinced by the control scheme. Yet.)
- Final Fantasy XII. (I can't get into it.)
- Dragon Quest VIII. (On the bright side, I'm fairly far into it.)

As of Christmas, the following games probably won't see completion any time soon:
- Fatal Frame 4. (Though, using a walkthrough, I might become engrossed; I'm fond of this type of game.)
- Tales of Symphonia 2. (I loved the original; here's hoping this provides similar thrills.)
- Final Fantasy IX. (I really like this. I really, really like this.)

Not enough holidays to wade through them all, I say. At least, not enough holidays not occupied by school-work.

World of Goo and Braid.

I've finished all of the likes of Far Cry 2, Battlefield: BC, Brothers In Arms: HH, Fallout 3, etc.

Goo should be easy enough to complete, but Braid is causing my brain to hurt now. I'm a couple of jigsaw pieces away from completing World 5, but World 6 is snapping my synapses. I might have to resort to a walkthrough. I know, I know.
