I played 30 hours into the game, non-stop. Then got a point and said "screw this, I'm done with this game". That was about a year ago. Last night I pop it into my PlayStation to have a look see at the game. I realized why I liked it so much (battle system) then realized why I stopped playing it (didn't like the story or characters). Except for Ashe: she's smoking hot.
I bought a lot of games that I haven't played at all... but the most recent game I bought and played once is Gears of War 2. Didn't like it in the slightest, not to mention it crashed on me after 10 min of playing. I'm thinking of trading it in for SO2 PSP or Order of Eccelsia.

One day I bought Roadsters and Carrier from EB Games for the Dreamcast and returned both in the same day. This was back when they had that 7 day quality exchange policy though.

magna carta for the ps2...i played maybe 10min of it and couldn't get into it....yet i still have it, may play it when i'm 30 or something.
lost oddessy, played an hour into it, but can't get into it, maybe later on...willing to give it another chance.
Grandia 3, awesome battle system for the first 2hrs, but couldn't bring myself to go forward.
Superman for the 360, yeah, a superman game that i had high hopes for....played maybe an hour till it got tedious.

Mission Impossible - Bought it because it had something like 97% in Mean Machines Sega and was supposed to be the system's best game.... perhaps my youth had something to do with it but I was bored stupid by it
Eternal Champions - Again, I'll blame this on Mean Machines Sega. It got 96% in their magazine, same as SF2. Couldn't understand the hype behind it as it was nowhere near SF2 level. At least they admitted that they had been a bit too kind with their score a few months later.
Tropico - Not as much fun as the box led on. I was looking for a comical management sim in the style of Theme Hospital, but found a lot of it far too convuluted.
Age of Empires 3 - Big fan of the first and Age of Kings was a mainstay of LAN gaming in uni. But when those playing cards came up I just gave up.
Tony Hawk Proving Ground - Had been playing THPS3 on the 360 and found it cheap so thought I would take a look at how the series had progressed. Found it hadn't, sold it.
Lost Odyssey - Haven't even played it, it is sat on my shelf in mint condition. Bought it since it cost a fiver. I hear it has a great story, but the random battles of jrpgs just really get on my nerves.

I imported Captain Rainbow and only played it once.
And come to think of it, Halo 3 as well.

Yeah, it boggles the mind. I don't buy a game unless I really want to play it. If I know I'm not going to have time to play a game, then I'll wait until I do (by which time I'll probably be able to get the game at a significantly cheaper price).DMeisterJ said:

All I can say to you people is you'll feel a lot happier with your hobby if you see yourself as a game player instead of a game collector. Throw the need to collect out of your mindset... it's pointless. No one cares about your collection, how big it is or what games are in it. No one.
And I say this in experience. Been there done that, it made me loath gaming more and more. Now I love gaming. Because I play games first, then buy new ones.

A whole shitload on Steam, but most of my Steam purchases are impulse buys, on the cheap anyways, so I don't want to count those.
