Impressive lists so far.

Never finished:

Lands of Lore: the original one. But due to a bug that wouldn’t let me advance.
Dungeon Keeper
Thief
Star Wars Episode 1: The Phantom Menace.
Crimson Skies: stopped playing for 6 months & upgraded PC; game is not compatible with newer GPU drivers.
And all Mario games–I just lose interest.

Out of all the games I *have* finished, by far Deus Ex was the most rewarding and replayable.

Boy, I see there are a lot of us who still haven’t finished Grim Fandango. We’re a bunch of sad people, that’s what we are.

Completed Halflife a couple of times. Completed Deus Ex probably somewhere about the 9/10 mark. What about all those games that it was only possible to complete by taking advantage of a bug (Vampire: Bloodlines anyone?). I don’t think I would ever be able to complete HL1 again because I can’t look at that giant baby at the end without crying a little. At least Valve redeemed themselves beautifully with all subsequent titles. Roll on Episode 3.

Actually, me and most of my friends are either unemployed or at a company on the verge of folding, so I might actually get to co-op Baldur’s Gate. Yay economic collapse!

This topic makes me sad, because people here are hardcore, most people might own and never play true classics. When I don’t finish a game, generally its because its crap or obscenely hard, often then I’ll just cheat.

But I have about 15 games on the go at any one time, they don’t get uninstalled until I’m done.

Sacrifice. Company of Heroes. Medieval. Call To Power. KOTOR. Planescape Torment. Morrowind. Neverwinter Nights. System Shock 2. No-One Lives Forever (which I would have played more of if it had had autosave). And off-PC, Shadow Of The Bloody Boring Colossus.

Sacrifice (Marduk can go hang), Theif 2, Every Final Fantasy except 9, System Shock (pirated copy (hey, it’s out of print, I refuse to feel bad) lead to a constantly crashing game), any Civ game.
On the other hand, I completed Meat Circus on the second attempt; the platforming was a bit grating but not impossible.

The list of games I haven’t finished is entirely too long.

I’ll try:

Bioshock
Psychonauts
Half-Life 1
Spore
Fallout 1 & 2
Sacrifice
Command and Conquer 3

Consoles:
Gears of War
GTA 4
Zelda: Twilight Princess
Ghost Recon
Viewtiful Joe

God I can’t even remember all of the games I never finished. I usually get bored of a game after a while. Once I’ve played it enough to see what the game is about I usually stop playing it. Most games throw all of the good stuff at you so early on, there’s no enticement to contiue forward.

Or maybe I’m just lazy.

One day, before I die, I sincerely intend to save the princess in Super Mario Brothers.

Thought I had once. Turned out she was in another castle.

Wow, very surprising to see so many people don’t finish games. I’m pretty OCD about it in comparison, can only recall not completing Descent II a long time ago and Bioshock more recently. When I get frustrated with a game, cheat codes usually expedite a quick finish just to get it over with.
