Games that you've purchased, but keep putting off

Re: Games that you've purchased, but keep putting off

You guys are all citing relatively new games. I've got older games I'm trying to finish.

I still play Neverwinter Nights 2 and I'm still not done. Man, that is one seriously long game.

Bioshock. I look at the box, think about playing it, groan and then play a different game instead.

My other older unfinished games that I plan to one day complete before my death:

Tropico 2
Bully
Far Cry 2 (recently just finished the original Far Cry)
Saints Row

The Bourne Conspiracy
Pitch Black
Star Trek
Lord of The Rings

Those 4 games right there for the 360 always piss me off with the wonky buggy crap it does on certain levels. Got to the point now I really don't care if I finish them LOL.

I played the first hour of BioShock 2 and Fallout 3, and haven't touched them since. I will finish both.

Fallout is one of my favorite games, it is awesome.

Re: Games that you've purchased, but keep putting off

It looks like Red Dead Redemption is the leading trend amongst the games we all haven't played.

For me, it's because it's a sandbox/GTA style game. I always sort of 'fall off' these games because I guess I NEED more linear play to keep me going. I just tend to wander aimlessly not really doing much of nothing in games like this. Oblivion, Fallout 3, GTAIV...the only game of this style I made it most of the way through is The Godfather, which is awesome.

However, RDR is so damn cool and I like the setting so I do plan to get back on that horse, probably this weekend.

I got ridiculously stuck in Star Trek.

I LOOOVE The Bourne Conspiracy. I played it through twice, I love takedowns!

Fallout is one of my favorite games, it is awesome.

BioShock was one of my favorite single player games of all time, yet I just haven't been able to start the second one. I hear so many good things about Fallout, but same thing happens there as with BioShock 2. When I turn on my 360, I usually reach for other games.

I loved the first Bioshock, but the second was not nearly as good. I got bored 1/2 way through and sold it.

ah, see everything I've heard said the last couple hours were phenomenal and made up for the lackluster beginning and middle.

Re: Games that you've purchased, but keep putting off

I got Conflict: Denied Ops for $10 a few months ago. I still haven't even tried it. I'm just too lazy to install it and all that. I'll give it more time, eventually I'll have the need to play it.

This is another one that I have. Found it one day at Gamestop for like $10 new. I picked it up because I liked the demo, and the relatively low price tag, but haven't even touched the full game.

Just add it to my laundry list, lol.

Re: Games that you've purchased, but keep putting off

-Almost every game I bought during the Steam sale so far.

-Dragon Age and Final Fantasy XIII

-Brutal Legend

-Alan Wake (Only played through a couple chapters so far)

-Hitman: Blood Money (I love these games and just recently got it from GameFly, but I keep getting sidetracked from playing it).

-Ratchet and Clank Future (Had this forever and love the series but still haven't played it).

-Valkyria Chronicles (Got some of the way in but got sidetracked).

-GTA DLC (Have both, have barely touched them but know I will at some point).

Mario and Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story (Another series I love, especially for the humor, but just have not played it on my DS yet).

Just Cause 2 (Dabbled, but was playing too many open-world games at the time so kind of got pushed to the side for now).

Backlogs are a real pain in the arse...

Re: Games that you've purchased, but keep putting off

Final Fantasy 13.. Can't make myself play this, I hate the battle system.

Mass Effect 2.. Waiting to finish Mass Effect 1 again so I'll have a character to import, but for some reason can't get motivation to play through ME1 again.
