Games you've always wanted to play but just never got to

Holy crap I forgot about D. That was the first PSX game I ever played. Never did get through it. Looks like i'll give it another try just to put it to rest. Thanks for reminding me :D

Thanks for the advice! Blood Money also came out on PC, I went out and picked up the collection about a year ago. They're all good games in my opinion, though at first I wasn't that impressed with Blood Money(the controls had been changed up a bit from previous Hitman titles, so I had to stop and come back a few months after finishing the others). Good times all around, though.

Yeah, I just ran through it. The first disc was cool in my opinion, but the circular room in the second...I honestly felt like I spent an hour in that damn thing. Still, like I said...glad I finally got around to playing it. Chalk one more horror game up for me!

Now that I think about it, I didn't really get into Shenmue either. I think I got as far as the part where you have to look for some Sailors or something, ran around waiting for the bar to open, then gave up. It's not a bad game, just not for me :?

I'd really love to play Panzer Dragoon Saga. It's not so much as I never got to it, more of a: I never can afford it!!!

and don't say play a burned copy....cause I'm just not going to do that. :)

The first one was kind of cool for its time. I never did get around to playing the second one

Another game I have had on the back burner for a long time now is Elder Scrolls:Oblivion. I've tried playing it twice, and each time I lost interest. I think it's too open and non-linear for my tastes and I really dislike the leveling system and combat. I played Mass Effect and never looked back. I should probably just sell or trade in Oblivion

Some day I'd like to play some more Legacy of Kain games. I like the original Soul Reaver a lot and never played any of the others

Haha! D. I had a friend in high school that got so mad at the game he threw the discs in the air one at a time and slashed them with a samurai sword. Then he proceeded to smash the discs with a claw hammer. Oh...and it was rental, and the store banned him and closed the account after returned the shrapnel in the rental case and said it was defective. He was a little bizzare.

Blood Omen 1 was a really cool gem if you like top down action rpgs, the sequel eh wasn't too pretty and the combat was a bit redundant but playing as Cain is still badass, Soul Reaver 2 improved on the first one immensely and not nearly as many box puzzles :] while defiance became a bit too much like a devil may cry clone but was and is still pretty, and like all the rest the voice acting and story are fantastic. oh and they're all pretty cheap and easy to find
