No!

I think I maybe in a very small minority here, but ever since I can remember, (I could string a combo together before I could walk!) I never seem to finish game.

I know many of you reading this probably think I should go and get some professional help, but another game I'm looking forward to seems to come along and just take up the rest of my spare time!

I like to think of myself as a serious gamer, and friends do agree, but how can I when I can not even remember the last game I finished. (Probably one of the first Resi games.)

Are there any other gamers out there who have this same problem, or is it a problem, I just want to see the end credits, without having to resort to cheating, (which I don'y bother doing!)

I do not play as much as I used too, but whenever I can, I am in front of that great slab of black, and its little blue eye, and play all night.

Maybe I just never had it in me.

Oh well, I have just purchased Onimusha. It could be the start of something new...........

I only ever finish games if they are short or really fun all the way through. If not, i.e Agent Under Fire I just get to the last level and cant be bothered to finish it.

I havent finished any of my ps2 games except SSX.

GT3 - Too repetitive after a while.

RE Code Ver X - Just plain boring.

GTA3 - Will get round to it at some point if I can drag myself away from random thuggery.

I usually get through about 80% of a game, then I just quit becos it's too hard and I never play on it again.

However, some games I do complete like Metal Gear Solid and other stealth games.

As long as I get my £40 worth of play out of a game, I'm happy not seeing a 1 minute ending....

but then there are games that I play that don't really have an ending. Take for instance pro evo soccer, I just love winning a few cups/leagues, or just playing with a few mates of an evening.

So finishing a game is not really the be all end all for me anyway. I just enjoy the initial excitment of putting the game in the machine and playing for the first hour. just to see if I agree with the reviews!
