Feel the shame. Challenges in games you've never completed.

Whaaat? There's people on Racketboy that've never gotten all of the Chaos Emeralds?

I am in that boat. I have beaten Sonic, Sonic 2, and Sonic CD, but I never found any of the game so compelling that I had to go back through them for all of the chaos emeralds.

I have beaten all of them but the first and Sonic CD with the emeralds. I just never had the desire to beat the first one that way.

Maybe it's because I've been playing them since I was a kid, but to me a classic Sonic game isn't beaten unless you get all of the emeralds. I recently played through all of the games on the Sonic Jam Collection and didn't get all of the emeralds on any of the games (well, I got all of them in Sonic 3, but I played it with Sonic & Knuckles). I felt like I didn't beat any of them.

Finding the Chaos Emeralds is just a pain in the ass. I ignore them.

I couldn't get all the journals in Bioshock. Played through multiple times and I always seem to miss one.

I never reached level 30 or beat Score Attack in a BlazBlue game, something I always meant to do. Came damn close in the original and Continuum Shift, but just never was able to do it even on my best day. Those last few matches would just always get me.

Except for Flamelurker. I'm not sure what it is about him, whether it's his high damage or his mobility or his aggressiveness, but I have never been able to defeat that boss while playing by myself.

Flamelurker's not that bad, you probably just need to readjust your strategy, or get really good at it. If you can beat the Maneaters alone, you can beat Flamelurker alone. (There's also a few ways to glitch him and cheese the whole thing, but it doesn't sound like you want to do that).

Chalk another one up for "Never got all the emeralds in any Sonic"

I adore Castlevania as a series, but I'm reasonably certain I've never beaten 2 all the way through without using any Nintendo Power passwords and/or Game Genie. Don't think I've actually beaten 1 without game genie either... christ NES-era games were hard.

My shame is I almost never finish a game. And I have never finished Super Mario Bros. There I said it. I have never finished one of the greatest games, that started it all.

I just get bored after awhile, unless you have something in the game that makes me want to beat the crap out of it, i'll toss it aside and move on. And it's not just old games, I haven't finished Fallout 3, NV or Skyrim. Mainly since it's a open world and I love modding them to get my own perfect world in which I can "live in" and forget my real life...yeah....

I never have beaten Chrono Trigger, despite the fact that I've owned it for over 3 years now.

Why are you posting on these forums when Chrono Trigger awaits you?

The first Super Mario Bros. is actually pretty challenging. Three lives, no continues, and little room for error. You're really handicapped as small Mario too, especially in the later stages of the game.

This.
