Games You Need to Beat

[Skunky]

I used to often come back from Thailand with 30-50 PS1/PS2 games, each time. So if I was to make a list of games I've never finished it would take several pages...

I like reading other people's lists though. (not sure why )

More recently:
Red Dead Redemption is still on my play list. I love open world games and I keep expecting to get into it but usually after a couple of hours, I switch it off and don't play it for a while. More people should give Just Cause 2 a chance. That is so much more fun IMO and also my GOTY.
But I'm looking forward to the Undead DLC. That will get me back.

Dead Space Extraction I bought for Wii (for $15) but I've never got around to booting it up... I only recently finished the original Dead Space. Now that I know Extraction is coming to PS3, I'll probably never play my Wii version.

I've got a few driving games I havn't finished but I'm still playing them. I like to switch between them.

There's a number of new games coming out in the next few months and some good older games I don't have, that are now really cheap. So I'm never short of something to play.

Interestingly enough, I don't have many games to beat. If I get a game, I pretty much finish it within the next couple of days.

That said, I own but have not beaten:

Super Paper Mario
Prince of Persia: Sands of Time (PC version)
Fallout 3 DLC (Bad Save and Glitchy Mothership Zeta cost me my farthest playthrough)

[Agent_Wong]

This is absolute blasphemy to me. I can understand not finishing Resident Evil Zero as it really isn't the pinacle of the series. I think Resident Evil Zero is good, but yeah, definitely not Resident Evil at its best...But CODE: Veronica?! This is like killing babies and eating their hearts to me.

Well to be honest. I have both the gamecube and the ps2 version, but I was playing the gc version at the time. I had gotten through to playing Chris and shortly after that my house was broken into so my wii and other consoles plus games were stolen. So I'll have to either start a new game on the ps2 or get another wii or gc. Other than that, there is no other reason that I haven't finished it. I do deserve to be beaten about the upper body with a rubber hose because I haven't started another play on the ps2 but I've been busy playing other games. As much as I love RE I can only play it in short to mid spurts or I get burned out on it. I'm that way with most games all together though.

I try not to keep a list like this, it feels a tad obsessive. And I feel sorry for the people that play through games on a list A-Z, gotta be selective..

I do feel guilty about not completing a few games though:

Dino Crisis: I always stop playing in the final third for some reason.
Half-Life 2: Same, just stop playing around the time I reach the prison.
File 2 (Outbreak): I went through file 1 really quick, but file 2.. I had it for ages and never really played it much.
Alundra: By no fault of my own, the game got glitched up after 22 hours.
Metal Gear Solid 2: I never liked the look of some parts, but its probably not a bad game.. I completed the first one like a million times.
Diablo II: Didn't get as far as I would of liked.

Games I wish to complete but never want to play:

RE Dead Aim
RE cell phone games

Games I completed but had to really push myself:

RE Gun Survivor: This one was nerve-wracking, I was frightened of dying on the final boss as I didn't want to play it again.
RE Gaiden: Completed it on super-speed, still counts right?

RE Dead Aim

HOW CAN YOU NOT COMPLETE THE BEST RE GAME!?

as for me. I have yet to complete

Red Dead Redemption (didn't care for it, played online about 98% of the time with friends)
Battlefield 2: Bad Company 2.
Scott Pilgrim (not fun single player and REALLY could use online multi)

Those are the only ones that spring to mind atm.

[Carnivol]

Scott Pilgrim really would've been neat if it had online multiplayer. We did run some 4 player action here (too bad it doesn't support GUEST users, not to mention how the darned thing, if you activate guest log-ins on another game, doesn't save character progress for guest log-ins)

The update patch / DLC (adds two new game modes + playable knives) will be out next month or something and also adds drop-in multiplayer, at least <3

It was kinda neat to play multiplayer with the guys, since we kinda just had to go for whatever controllers I had available (just like the old days)

1. Siren 1 2 3
2. X-Files PS2 RE clone, looks real cool
3. Onimusha 4, I loved 1 and 2, they were the reason I bought a PS2!
4. DMC3, It looks hella cool.
5. DMC4
6. Dino Crisis 1 2 Still haven't played those...
7. Alone in the Dark PS2, The controls annoyed me. I still feel I should play it someday.
8. Obscure 2, I loved the first one.
9. Viewiful Joe 2

[Canas Renvall]

^ Wait, there's a third Siren game? I only played 1 (so fucking hard... DX) and Blood Curse (So good!) I never got to play 2. Whee for being in America.

[Darkmoon]

I assume he means Blood Curse for 3. There is no direct sequal...as far as I know.

And yeah, Siren 1 is hideously hard to beat.

[The_15th]

Yes, that's what I meant, sorry. I have most if not all those games already purchased since years ago... I'm a horrible gamer. Also Silent Hill 3, I think the repetitive environments in that one bored me out of it.

[Gradon]

Forbidden Siren 2 is the best.

[Darkmoon]

The second is very good, but I do prefer the first. Mostly because it's so hard I'm constantly terrified of being caught.

[Rombie]

I tried to prepare a list here, but I got to a couple of dozen games and gave up. I have a profile over at Playfire with all my games on it, plus stuff I've finished and sold... I looked through it. Just on first glance I probably have around 40 or 50 titles to finish, replay for a better ending/reason/unlockable or at worst even start. :/

[Zombie Fred]

I think there's a few games I wish I would play but I feel like the best time would be around the christmas season. These games I'm talking about of course is Mario Galaxy 2, Yoshi's Island, and a few other wii/nintendods games. I just feel like I want to save these for that special time of the year to have some great moments.

EDIT: On PC side of things, I need to play through PS: Torment and Baldurs gate 1+2, and fallout 1+2 again since it's been years I went through these classic games. I remember me and my best friend would constantly talk about our own journey during the story and how different experiances we had on own personal actions that reflected in the worlds. It's a shame really I've not played these now (and even when GOG has got these in excellent DRM free form!) but I feel like they need a lot of free time to spend on each of these titles listed.

I'm waiting for the full mod complete for STALKER:COP to be complete before jumping into this title also.

Prince of Persia (the one with sellshade graphics): I kind of like it, but it's just not my type of game
