The original Zelda. I beat A Link To The Past a few times, but for some reason I can never get around to beating the first Zelda. Those are the only Zelda games I have ever really played. I tried Phantom Hourglass but couldn't get into it.

Looking at everyone's posts, it's funny how many games we haven't finished. I was thinking about this at work today and of course, for those of us with less time than when we were kids, it seems natural that we can't devote as much time to gaming.
But when I was in middle + high school, I could only afford a few games here and there (not including birthdays & holidays) so I know out of all of my games owned/played/rented back then, there isn't one that I didn't finish 'cause each one was a freakin' treasure. :)

I've never owned a current-gen console. The NES was my primary console from about 1993-2006, though I would sometimes play my brother's SNES. It's a lot easier to buy more than you can beat when you're paying between $0 and $10 per game.

There's also a huge advantage game-access-wise to having brothers who also love video games.

Ha, I have the exact same story.

Anyways, I haven't finished a lot of games to be honest. Either, I get bored with them (I'm fairly ADD when it comes to games...), I get stuck, or I just don't have the time.

Some that come to mind...

Zelda Link to the Past
Zelda Majora's Mask
Final Fantasy VI
Rez (The last level is so hard - either that or I just suck)
Ikargua (too hard/I suck)
Every Ecco the Dolphin game
Guardian Heroes
GTA Vice City
Phantasy Star II
Phantasy Star IV

Agree with Turok 2. That game is ridiculously tough. Great games I haven't completed include:

God of War
Beyond Good & Evil (playing atm)
Viewtiful Joe
Billy Hatcher
Jet Set Radio 1 & 2
Grandia 2 (becomes an effort!)
Project Zero
Banjo Kazooie
Metal Gear Solid
Super Mario 64
Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time

In fact, I should really get through these ASAP. I might get kicked off this forum otherwise.

Ah how could I forget these? Add these too to my list.

Haha and Banjo Tooie I've never even played, despite the fact I've owned it for nearly 10 years or something lol.
