Super Mario Bros.

Super Metroid

Metroid Fusion

Pac-Man (original)

I own a GBA version of Final Fantasy I & II, but I really suck at it. I haven't even figured out how to use magic yet...I'm such a NOOB.

I would normally say FF4, but I finally beat it a few days better the sequel came out.

We Love Katamari
Got stuck on non-fun tasks (can't remember what) and never finished it.

Legend of Dargoon
Got pretty far then lost the save and never got back to were I was.

Prince of Persia: Warrior Within
Was being chased by something and could never out run the thing (hate running for dear life moments). Always wanted to finish the game though.

MS Saga: A New Dawn
I'm sure I'm the only person here that likes this game. Okay, I really have a love/hate relationship with this game. Damn Kamikaze Ravens. Got to the final dungeon last time I played, just never finshed it.

Zelda Ocarina of Time
Got to the final boss, but I can't hit the broad side of a barn with that damn bow. Great story, very frustrating game. I dare not touch Majora's Mask.

Damn, that sucks.

All I can say is keep trying. The final battle (I assume you haven't made it THAT far yet) was one of the most awesome experiences for it's time. I really hope your arrow aim gets better.

Now that I think about it, that's a console I've never completed.

The only games I ever actually played on it was Bug! and Virtua Fighter 2.

Sadly, I never got to witness NiGHTS into Dreams.

Now, for the games I've never beaten, but wish I could:

Silent Hill (PS): The damn thing froze right in the middle of the fight with the woman cop
Jurassic Park (SNES): Just couldn't for the life of me figure out how to finish it.
Rayman (PS): Not necessarily one of the best, just one I couldn't beat.

I haven't shown my face around here for a while, so here are some more!

Freedom Force
Loved this game all those years ago back at uni. I liked how it took the golden age of comics and gave it a sort of tactical slant. I remember it was a lot of fun having your Captain America-style guy shouting 'FOR JUSTICE!' or 'FOR LIBERTY!' before a comical 'THWACK!' sound as he punched some goon with a gun; or being able to pick up cars or lampposts and smack baddies with them.

I think I had gotten quite far but the game did begin to get quite hard and I got into a quandary over which characters to take into battle (I disliked that limitation) to earn experience points. I eventually got caught up in uni work and other games and never replayed it. I think I picked up the sequel (vs. The Third Reich) a couple of years back but I have never even installed that.

Warhammer 40,000: Chaos Gate
I think I stopped this one for similar reasons. I had gotten quite far and things were getting tough but I also didn't like to see my guys being killed off (again each was gaining separate experience points and such) and one mission I spent ages trying to do without losing a guy. But there was just no way to do this mission without losing at least one marine (I was anal like that...) Then just got caught up in making my own maps and doing skirmishes and forgot about it.

Call of Duty 4- I hate playing the campaign, I'm just a multi-player guy on most shooters, but I can't even bring myself to play through.

Mega Man X collection- I've beaten 1-3 before on my SNES, but some of those later MegaMan X games were tough. Still can't beat 'em.

Mass Effect- Guilty. I just explore stuff and do side quests every time.

I'm the exact opposite. I've beaten all three Playstation titles, but the SNES games are brutal. To this day, I've yet to complete a single one.

Most definitely. It's probably the only one I can beat in one sitting without losing a life.

And a big LOL to Friday the 13th. That game used to freak me out when I was a kid. F*cking Jason kept popping up randomly and making me wanna turn the game off.
