Games you own, but never play

[balli]

Anybody else own games you've never played much?

Ninja Gaiden II- Loved the first xbox Ninja Gaiden. Brought #2 home on release day and I bet I've only spent 20 minutes with it. Those fucking dogs with swords in their mouths killed me one time, so I quit entirely. I feel pretty weak about that, so I plan to finish it someday.

Halo 3- Never finished the campaign. I did play on Live for maybe a month or so, but almost never anymore.

Gears 2- I wasn't going to buy it, but when I heard everyone go off about Horde, I did. I finished the campaign, but I really only bought it for the multiplayer and to be honest, I'm 100% over it.

Oblivion- I actually put in probably 15 or so hours, but a fucking NPC I have to kill glitched and disappeared out of the game and I can't do shit about it. It sucks because I was really enjoying Oblivion, but it's too much work to start all over. Instead, if I wanna play an RPG, I'll get Fallout.

Team Fortress 2 if that counts- Can't stand the fucking game.

rockstar table tennis

I wish they'd make another one but with money put into it

[resistanze]

Portal - Will eventually

Assassin's Creed - Never got into it, never will.

GRiD - see above

Tom Clancy's Vegas 2 - Combination of no time and bad first impression (why does the game look inferior to Vegas 1???)

[jman3000]

I'm actually pretty good in regards to buying games i know i will want to play... first game i bought for my xbox was FEAR and i dont play it anymore... but that was more due to beating it and buying bioshock.

i stopped playing oblivion because i had put almost 200 hours into it and still hadnt completed all the quests... just kinda got oblivion fatigue... and got sidetracked with mass effect... then got sidetracked again by fallout.

[Slydragon]

Assassin's Creed, played it like 20 mins and never touch it again. It's just there on my shelf collecting dust.

This is why I think twice before buying a game

[Anti.Hero]

You have to PC MOD the shit out of Oblivion to reach its full potential.


For me, it's NBA Live 08 (for PC). I literally played 20 minutes of it and hated it. I tried to play it a year later and did the same thing.

[Spurtacus]

gta 4

Ditto. Played for a few hours and got tired of the repetitive chasing.

[baseline bum]

Gears of War: I still haven't taken the time to beat the campaign after more than a year of owning it.

[baseline bum]

Ditto. Played for a few hours and got tired of the repetitive chasing.

GTA4 sucked. I played it the entire way through because I kept expecting to see the amazing action and humor from GTA3, VC, and SA, and never saw it. I haven't touched the game at all since I beat it, unlike the other 3 major releases (since GTA3) which I still play consistently.

[Avitus1]

Fight Night Round 3.

I just got other games and stopped playing, used to play it a lot though.

One of the hardest fucking action games I've played, that and DMC3. I went through the final boss(es) (3-4 stage types) with no health packs, and I thought I would have to retire the game. I eventually beat it after 8 tries, which surprised me, but I wouldn't want to do that again.

[CuckingFunt]

Twilight Princess. I've never been a fan of the Zelda series, but after good reviews I decided to buy it with my Wii for the sake of curiosity. Yawn. I played it about 20 minutes over a year ago and really have no intention of playing it again.

[ATRAIN]

Damn this thread is making me think of going back and finishing some games.

[jman3000]

i have a hard time not playing games i havent beat... maybe it's a form of OCD... but whatever.

only games i have that i havent beaten are Oblivion, Ultimate Alliance (bc it's a game i play only with 3-4 people), Fallout 3, and Earth Defense Force.

[CuckingFunt]

i have a hard time not playing games i havent beat... maybe it's a form of OCD... but whatever.

I used to be like that, but now that I have less time to play I'm a bit more selective. I forced myself to beat Tomb Raider: Angel of Darkness a few years ago, and that game was fucking horrible.

We should team up and play Ultimate Alliance J. Your right the only times I have played it is with friends. I helped my old roomate beat it on his xbox before I had my xbox so he got all the achievements.

[jman3000]

im down. just dont get pissed when i spend all my time breaking barrels for money while you get beat up.

[jman3000]

anybody looking to sell any of their 360 games? im looking to expand my library on the cheap.

[sam1617]

Use the cheat codes for money.

Saves you so much time.

[jman3000]

im against cheat codes in every way. i havent used a cheat in a video game since i used to fuck around with goldeneye on the 64.

Yeah same here cheating is stupid and pointless for for noobs who dont have any skill.

[jman3000]

lmao.. thor... how utterly homoerotic of you.

[ATRAIN]

lmao.. thor... how utterly homoerotic of you.

LOL UP yours hahha. Who do you use? My team is Thor, Iron Man, Cap America, and I forget who I had as my 4th. I think I used Magnetto for a while.

[jman3000]

IronMan as my main tank, then my friend usually picks Hulk because he's cheap. after that i'd usually be Dead Pool or Capn America.

[ATRAIN]

Well we can have Iron Man, Cap Amer, Thor, and a random 4th. We will need to unlock the surfer (without cheating of course). He would be a great 4th.

I never ever cheat, but if I were to cheat, it would be for money. I hate spending time in games collecting and budgeting my money. That doesn't take skill, it takes patience.

Actually I cheated when I played Oblivion. I really needed a house to store all my loot in. So I spent hours killing bandits, cooking up potions and searching through crates so I could sell the shit for pennies, to merchants who hated me. That didn't take skill, it took hours of mind-numbing boredom. And at the end of the day, I still didn't have shit for money and I couldn't afford a house. So I paralyzed a rich shop owner and stole 300,000 large from him. 5 minutes later I got my house. If anything my skills in Oblivion advanced because of cheating; instead of wasting my time scrounging cash for lock picks and repair hammers, I was actually free to, you know, play the game.

[jman3000]

i'm just glad wolverine wasnt on your list. he's blacklisted for meon any marvel game because he's so damn over used.

My bad. I'm with you. :toast

[IronMexican]

Cheats are fucking awesome on GTA, but suck on every other game.

[dirk4mvp]

I haven't played GTA since the day I beat it. Great game and all, but it just didn't make me want to go on a massive killing spree like the past GTA games did.

[IronMexican]

GTA4 was shit. GTa SA was awesome.

[DannyT]

What games are you wanting to buy J.

I have a few games I can sell for 10 or 15 bucks

[balli]

Granted GTA IV isn't as good as Vice or San Andreas, but I didn't think standing by itself, that GTA IV was really a bad game by any means. I don't play anymore, but I was really into it for a solid month at least. which is more than I can say about most games.

[DannyT]

what is a must have new game that is out right now....I dont know if I would like these last days on earth save the world type of games but l4d, dead space, and fallout 3 or something seemed all the same to me whats worth it right now

[balli]

I haven't played any of these but I heard that left for dead SUCKS unless you have friends you know and trust to play it with you. With the right friends, people seem to be loving it. But it's entirely predicated on online co-operation to survive zombies. A lot of environmental/puzzle solving stuff.

Didn't Cry Havoc or somebody make a dead-space thread saying it was cool? I'm over it just because I don't think it has multi-player and as a kind of generic IMO first person shooter, is probably better as a rental than a $60 purchase.

I don't know shit about Fallout 3 other than the fact Bethesda made it, it's been reviewed well and it's engrossing enough to be worth your money. I guess it depends on you liking/having time for role playing games or not.

Prince of Persia just came out and all the reviews are saying it's really fun and just beautifully rendered. It's apparently easy and kind of short though.

If you don't have The Orange Box it ain't exactly new, but for 29 bucks you can't really go wrong with Half Life and Portal. In fact, if you haven't played them it should be a top priority.

I started this thread saying that I didn't play Ninja Gaiden II, but I popped it in the other night and really enjoyed it. Like resistanze said, it's hard as hell, but it's also fairly long, and replayable. Worth considering.

Bioshock for XBox360 is only $30 new, and can be found at 4 of the 5 Best Buys in SA

http://www.bestbuy.com/site/olspage.jsp?id=pcat17006&type=page&_requestid=255288

It's easily worth $100 though. The lighting, the music, and the story completely blow away 99.99% of anything I've ever seen.

I thought the ending was a bit anti-climactic, though. Both in gameplay (fighting the last boss was easier than taking on a Big Daddy) and story. Still better than a lot of games, and definitely worth playing, but after the bar had been set so high by the rest of the game I just didn't think it quite lived up.

I liked the ending just fine. The protaganist goes on to live a lasting life with a family that he never had. As for the last guy being easy, that probably has something to do with you being a big daddy

I got a different ending, so that may be part of the reason. I need to beat it a few more times and treat the Little Sisters differently.

Yeah what was up with that? I forgot to buy any health packs going into the final boss (just like in Ninja Gaiden 2 - bad habit) and I thought I was screwed. But I beat the boss on the first try. I also got your ending and I wasn't impressed -- the whole endgame sequence was also too short.

[baseline bum]

LOL. You heartless bastard. You get the good ending if you save them all, and the shitty one if you kill even one of them.

[CuckingFunt]

LOL. You heartless bastard. You get the good ending if you save them all, and the shitty one if you kill even one of them.

I harvested two of them, but saved all the others. From what I read, there are three special endings: save them all, harvest them all, and harvest one but save the others. Any other combination, including ignoring some/all of them, gets the boring ending.

[LnGrrrR]

GTA4 was hella overrated. Oh yay, you mean I have to stop by the armor/gun shop before every mission? And if I fail, I get to call a cab or drive out to the spot all over again? Exciting!

Does no one have f'ing cell phones in that game? Yeesh.

Fallout 3... I opened it and gave it a shot since it was just sitting there and I confirmed my belief that I suck at games nowadays. Seems pretty cool if you're into those types of games, but I need something that requires little to no thinking lol. If any of you are willing to trade (GOW2, Left 4 Dead, DCvsMK, or maybe even World @ War), let me know. I've had no luck on Craigslist since it has been getting slammed lately in the games/toys dept (an ad will only stay on the first page for an hour or two).
