Ah, I have some major games here I still haven't beat due to time and other games grabbing my full attention (hm...Halo 2 :D ).




I still haven't completed:

The Chronicles of Riddick
Fable
Burnout 3: Takedown
Rainbow Six 3
Rainbow Six 3: Black Arrow
Ninja Gaiden
SOCOM US Navy Seals (I know...pathetic...stopped at Mission 10)



EVENTUALLY I will.

My aunt & uncle run a Mom & Pop store, "The Gamecube Hut", and sold 80k WiiU within minutes of opening.
I wouldn't consider beating the "Pink Flower" mode in Pikmin 2 a requirement for beating that game.



Game's I haven't finished:

Metroid Prime
MGS: TTS
Zelda: The Wind Waker
TimeSplitters 2
Resident Evil: 0
Viewtiful JOE
 
How about games I barely touched, because I don't have the time? Wait, that's too many to list.

And it's kind of funny/sad/ironic/whateveryouwannaconsider it when I say "I don't have time" (and I always use that excuse when explaining my backlog of games), since I don't have a job, and practically have zero responsibilites... Basically all my time is free time, and yet I'm unable to fit games in.

I blame my partner, and this forum.

you can't attribute all your time for gaming... really. Work aside.. there are other avenues of entertainment. I watch and buy too many dvds. And then the other stuff like movies + dinners + dates. I do work so... it does get hard to game. I see it only getting worse when I get married and... :( Oh well..

In that case. I am done but I keep wanting to unlock that last cinema.

What really sucks though is I was all hyped for Fable and then after about 2 weeks of playing it on and off, I found myself not having time for it and sort of losing interest.

All I hope is that one day I'll pick back up on these great games and actually beat them.

I guess I should only list the ones that I've actually started but not finished. Well, the main ones at least:
- Baten Kaitos, over 50% done
- Final Fantasy X-2, about 75% done then restarted and quit at 5%
- Ace Combat 5, around 40% done
- Star Ocean 3, only 5 hours in
- Tales of Symphonia, only 2 hours in
- Devil May Cry, 2 missions from end
- Final Fantasy II, around 10% done
- Pikmin, around halfway
- Mario Golf GBA
- Tales of Phantasia GBA

Well the list is very large:

FFX (final boss)
FF VII (final boss)
Billy Hatcher (final world)
GTA:SA (at the medium)
Katamari Damacy (at the beginning)
Burnout 3 (75%)
Ace Combat 4 (lost interest...I loved 3 but 4...)
Secret of Mana (I was beating it with a friend, stuck at the middle)
Castlevania 64 (the beginning)
Zelda:MM (the beginning)
Paper Mario (beginning)
Banjo Kazooie (75%)
Fear Effect 2 (2nd CD)
Fire Emblem GBA (middle)
FFTA (7 hours)

The list is much larger...

Too many games to list here--at least several hundred hours' worth.

you can't attribute all your time for gaming... really. Work aside.. there are other avenues of entertainment.

Yep--my backlog of books and DVDs is worse than my backlog of games.

Pokémon Colosseum...
And I "finished" Tales of Symphonia just to see the ending... but I need to REALLY finish it (items, sidequests, etc, 2nd. time, 3rd. time maybe...).

Pretty much all of my GC and GBA games, plus Shadow Hearts 2, though I'll be getting to that right off now that I've finished Halo 2 and Fable.
 
I seem to have plenty of time for GBA games since they are so easy to pick up and play, but stacked under my consoles to play are:

Katamari Damacy
Star Ocean 3
Front Mission 4
Paper Mario 2
Pikmin 2 (unopened)
Devil May Cry
Breath of Fire V
Disaster Report

I also may finish Ring of Red someday, but I doubt it.

SSX 3

Pikmin 2
R: Racing Evolution
NFS: Underground 2
Call of Duty: Finest Hour
TimeSplitters 2
F-Zero GX
NFS: Hot Pursuit 2
Resident Evil
Eternal Darkness
Star Wars: Rogue Squadron III - Rebel Strike

And Doom 3 (PC).

Chronicles of Riddick
Second Sight
Psi Ops
TMNT 2
Fable

And most of those I probably won't finish having recently picked up Motal Kombat Deception, Halo 2, and DOA Ultimate.
 
Yeah, I have far too many to list as of right now, but here's what I can think of off the top of my head..

A ton of older PC games I never even played, and then a few other somewhat new ones like Serious Sam, Unreal 2, Jedi Knight II, and C&C: Generals and expansion pack..

On the Cube, I have:
TimeSplitters II
RE Zero
Bomberman Jetters
Serious Sam
F-Zero GX
Super Mario Sunshine (over halfway done)
Hunter the Reckoning
Mario Kart: DD!! (almost done)
Mario Golf: TT
Roadkill (got it for $2.50 at TRU)
Soulcalibur II
NHL Hitz 20-03
Zelda: Collector's Edition games (hardly touched this one, despite it's awesomeness)
Two Towers
Viewtiful Joe (somewhat near the end)
Tony Hawk 3


that's only on the Cube. And I could be/am missing some. There's some on PS2 like Amplitude, Star Wars Starfighter, Mark of Kri (working on now), and others.

I have so many games stretching back years that I wanted to finish or hardly ever played. Example: Got Shenmue for Christmas the year it came out. Played about 2-3 hours total of it. That's it.

And those are just the big name games...

Some of these I've gotten almost completely to the end, but never quite finished due to the constant flow of new games and increasingly smaller free time with which to play games. :(

I did manage to beat Halo 2 and MGS2 this gen though! :D
