God damn it I hate you.

[Dmitry]

I have a bunch of games I want to finish. I'm right at the end of Phantasy Star II but can't beat the boss. Then I have 3 and 4 after that (I can skip 3, right?)

Plus:
Metroid Prime 1-3, started 1 and got a good bit but will probably restart with the Wii Collection
Metal Gear Solid 2-4
Borderlands and Fallout DLC
bunch of random 360 games I probably shouldn't have bought too.

I thought my list was bad, but man you guys need to get playing .lol

I start a lot of games, and if something else comes out I tend to stop where I am and list it as "ill get around to it someday" and never do. Iv been playing a lot of older games this past month. I got around to finally beating a lot of the games I posted as "need to do side stuff in" I just got done with FF7 and 8 on the psn network about 2 weeks back and before that FF:T I beat maybe 2 weeks before that ~_~ but my list is still to long lol

[Odesseiron]

Okay my list... not gonna include DS titles, because well.. I have about 50+ and all of them are pirated so lol. Just gonna list the games I haven't finished. Most games I finish and then sell, or if I never have any intention of beating and know it, just get rid of it.

=/

[TheDirtyHobo]

Fuck, I think it would be faster to just list major series I really want to play but haven't gotten around to/finished:

Ace Attourney/Phoenix Wright (Finished first 2, need to start the rest)
Devil May Cry (Played 3 at a friends house, was awesome fun)
Fallout (Played some of 3 but never finished, haven't touched the first two)
Fatal Frame (Rented one way back, only played like an hour or two and didn't really get into it, but would like to try again)
Final Fantasy (Need to finish 1-4, 6, 9, 12, Tactics, X-2. Started every single one of them)
Kingdom Hearts (Beat the first one, never played the rest. The train wreck of a story looks interesting)
Legend of Zelda (Only finished LttP and Link's Awakening)
Metal Gear Solid (Never touched a single one of them)
Paper Mario (Got about halfway through Super, haven't touched the others)
Resident Evil (Only finished 5, Outbreak)
Shin Megami Tensei (Persona 3 Journey and Devil Survivor are all I've finished)
Silent Hill (Started all of them, only finished 2)
Star Ocean (Played a bit of 3)
Xenogears/saga (Started Saga ep 1, never finished it)
Wild Arms (Got pretty far into 3 on a rental but never finished it)

And for individual games:
Brave Fencer Musashi (I beat the entire game except the final boss, could never manage to take him down as a kid. I want my revenge)
Breath of Fire: Dragon Quarter (Didn't care for the other BoF games but this seems interesting)
Dragon Quest VIII (Same as BoF)
Folklore (I played the PSN demos like 6 hours before buying the game, but for some reason I have yet to play the real thing)
Grandia III (1 and 2 are among my favorite JRPGs of all time, so the mediocre reviews for 3 make me a little apprehensive to even start)
InFamous (been sitting on my shelf for a year now and I haven't even put the disk in)
Infinite Undiscovery (Kinda bland, but once I gave up on it being good I enjoyed it for its comedic hyper-stereotypical JRPG value)
Last Remnant (Awesome battle system and interesting universe, not really sure why I stopped playing it)
Legend of Dragoon (My disk 4 broke as soon as I got to it ;_

[Atreides]

Last Remnant is kinda annoying, since it's such a time sink for almost no reward. I did really like Infinite Undiscovery, which is arguably more enjoyable if you download the free DLC that lets you buy half of the synthesis materials from shops (and thus lets you craft things for profit and have infinite money), and it's got some really great endgame/postgame content as well.

Also if you like Silent Hill 2 you should definitely at least play 3. Fatal Frame 2 is probably the best in the series, but 2 3 and 4 are all so similar it doesn't really matter. If you have a modded wii you can just get the fan translation of 4 for free though, it's pretty awesome if you're into survival horror (but if you're not I guarantee the character's walking speed will turn you off).

Also go play persona 4 lol

[Tyrath]

GO FINISH THIS NOW

Its one of those really old ones I'd have to start over now. I have literally no memory of anything in that game xD I have no idea what my save point left off at.

[Awoir]

Final Fantasy XI

Someone had to...

[dejet]

Final Fantasy XI

Someone had to...

go look at my list ~_~ i put it on there lol

[Kaelan?]

from what I've heard, I should skip Xenosaga II entirely, no? if I find a copy of III might do that and read II's story online.

No need: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5Q1Wd...x=1&playnext=1
When you have an afternoon to blow, you can just watch the whole game.

Also,

Persona 4
Valkyrie Profile 2
Breath of Fire III
Star Ocean: The Second Story
Alundra
Valkyria Chronicles
Odin Sphere

GO FINISH THIS SHIT

Now I need to go make my own list, too much nostalgia in this thread

[Tyrath]

Eh, I didn't dislike II. But then again I tend to look more at the positives of a game than the negatives. The lack of a shop system sucked yeah. But I enjoyed the battle system well enough. And I'm an Albedo fan so I enjoyed the focus of the story being on Albedo.

[Arnwulf]

Current Backlog of titles sitting on my shelf:
Heavy Rain
God of War (all 3)
Resonance of Fate
Nier
Blue Dragon
Assassin's Creed 2
Aliens vs. Predator

Games I have started but need to finish:
Killzone 2 (at final boss)
Infamous
Infinite Undiscovery (at final boss)
Valkyria Chronicles

[Kerk]

Final Fantasy XII (never could get into it for some reason)
Fallout 3
Final Fantasy X-2
Kingdom Hearts 2 (got very close to beating it like 3 years ago)

[Kyo]

I have almost no backlog, when I buy a game, normally I play it to 100% completion before I move on to something else. I do need to go back and platinum Bioshock and Bioshock 2 and that's about it. Hardly anyone on Bioshock 2 multiplayer, regardless of console so it'll be tough to platinum, perfect reason why I hate multiplayer trophies. I don't play MMO's anymore so they're obviously excluded.

II sucked, and it sucked even more that II was focused on Albedo because he is fucking great.

Well I can't say that I don't wish Xenosaga I+II for DS were released here. II was changed to use the first games battle system and many story plotholes were addressed.
