Syberia, URU, Zork Nemesis...those are the only three I can think of off the top of my head.

I can't even imagine having nine unfinished games at once. It would drive me insane. I get antsy if I'm working on two or three at once. Right now, the only in-progress game I have is Fallout: Tactics. It's pretty fun. Combines the humor and atmosphere of Fallout with some perfectly respectable squad-based strategy. I've definitely played worse.
Then again, I'm not counting games that don't have endings. If I include those, there's also Burnout 3 and Dance Dance Revolution on my XBox. Last edited by Egarthen; 09-29-2004 at 01:25 PM. |

Morrowind, but I'm playing that one on PC. Metroid Prime, but playing on GC. Final Fantasy VII, but playing on PS2 (reluctantly). I too get jumpy if I play more than three games at once. But I do try to make it a policy to finish all of my games. I also don't buy enough games to justify rushing it or not finishing it at all. I buy a game, play it, ans finish it. Seems almost a normal thing to do, doesn't it?

Loads, unfortunately. My vice is buying games on impulse, so I have quite a few I haven't even started, let alone failed to complete. Ones on "the list" that I really should get around to some day are:
System Shock 2 Deus Ex (not even touched this) Broken Sword 1, 2, 3 Ocarina of Time (Gamecube ¬) Halo (Xbox) |

Same here! I buy up adventure games whenever I spot any that I've been dying to try, and I get bogged down by how MANY I have. Adventure games on my hard drive right now are Dark Fall 2, Broken Sword 3, Missing, and Beyond Good and Evil. |

Thief Gold
Shivers 2 (still!) Painkiller KOTOR (I beat it as light side, but since I haven't finished the dark side yet, I don't count it as being "done.")

I might as well cut & paste my list of games and remove some adventure games, Morrowind and a couple of other ones. I don't usually finish games, because a new interesting one pops up and the other doesn't have enough 'power' to still attract me. Couple of examples:
Arx Fatalis - I got stuck on it this summer, I was really looking forward to finish it but now I have other games to play, and I put the box on my desk just to 'remember'. In Memoriam, maybe (which I actually finished) Gabriel Knight 3 - I had to put this, I installed it like 4/5 times and never finished it. But now I'm working hard to do it, I HAVE to finish it Heart of Darkness - man, this sucks! This too has gone through the installation process a zillion times and I've never finished it. UFO Aftermath - I guess I just played it too much, it didn't deserve that much attention

I seem to remember the Heart of Darkness demo to be frighteningly difficult at the time.
Egarthen, I completely agree. I want to savour every last bit of my games, and can't imagine doing that if I play ten games at the same time or if I'm rushing a game because the next one is waiting

There was a time when I had like 20 games installed at the same time, but because of a serious lack of disk space (can you believe that I wrote "dick space" at first ) I don't have that many now. I do try to stick to one game at a time though. It's much easier to get immersed in the game that way.
Anyway, here's the list of my currently installed games: Caesar III Operation Flashpoint Game of the Year Edition BeTrapped! Demo Gabriel Knight 1 GTA III Of these games I'm only playing Operation Flashpoint at the moment. Those that has played this game knows that it's more than enough on its own. |

Darkfall. None other (although Midnight Nowhere was a few days ago). It's just that I tend to uninstall whatever I haven't been playing a week or so, and put the savegames in my Saves&patches folder. Although I believe I'll never be going back to Midnight Nowhere. It's just too crappy

Syberia I and II are the only adventure games that I have on my computer that I haven't finished yet. I'm currently playing Splinter Cell: Pandora Tomorrow on the Hard mode, and it's pretty exciting, and challenging.
I also need to install The Black Mirror again, and finish playing it this time. I didn't hate it when I first started playing it. I JUST STOPPED PLAYING FOR SOME REASON I CAN'T FIGURE OUT!, and went on to playing other games that I own. Has that happened to any of you before?!. |
