Knights of the Old Republic 2. I beat the first one in 30 hours, it was awesome, I wanted more, but for some reason I just can't get into the sequel.

Red Faction: Guerrilla. I'm probably just one or two missions away from total story completion, but it's wearing a bit thin.

I've never finished a game of Civilization. Probably won't until I get Civ5.

I've also never beaten a Pokemon game. I got to Victory Road on Sapphire, but I'd been one-shotting almost everything (I think Kyogre went down in like two hits) with an OMGLAZOR attack my starter learned and the meat of the game wasn't that fun anymore.

Oh, and the only Zelda game I ever beat was Wind Waker. My sister and I are marathoning Ocarina of Time this weekend, though, and after that I will be in the proper mood to do Majora's Mask and maybe even Twilight Princess.

AI War: Fleet Command.

I always play with a friend, and they are never available when I feel like a game. Vice versa for them.

Trust me, that's much more fun when you're younger (it's how I beat all my early pokemon games!). Now I can't play Pokemon without playing it either A) Nuzlocke mode or B) with an elaborately set up team of underpowered Pokemon.

Pokemon games are some of the few ones I've finished.

Was playing Osu! and I saw my Digimon song. Made me think to when I was younger, playing Digimon World 3. Never managed to finish it and i just cried a little.

Now, I can't stop listening to the song.

I actually did a marathon of twilight princess and beat it in three days. I quit windwaker at the chasing of the ghost ship, and I finished ocarina of time in my child hood. I figured more people would have these fixed.

The fact that the sequel was rushed and shipped in a near-incomplete state might have something to do with that.  >:(
If you're planning on trying again, make sure to pick up the Restored Content mod - it takes most of the content Obsidian didn't have time to finish and polishes it up. (Plus, the ending actually sorta makes sense once two-thirds of it isn't cut away.  ::) )

Eh, the only one worth finishing was Alpha Centauri anyways. The other ones I almost never enjoy playing beyond the initial phase, and thus never finish, but you've GOT to get a transcendence victory with Alpha Centauri at least once.

Also, for all you people still trying to finish UQM:
It's really not that long a game, get your asses on it! If you're limited on time and don't enjoy it, don't feel bad for looking up a map of rainbow planets so you can easily skip the annoying mineral collection mini-game. And you WILL need to look up the location of the Beast that Zex wants you to hunt - you need the actual included paper materials, a lot of luck, some stuff that isn't obvious, or a ton of time in order to find it.
OR your can use the following map and just check all the 8-start constellations that might meet the definition you need ;)

It also outlines the spheres of influences of the races you know about at the beginning of the game.

So bad at finishing games. Off the top of my head:

Have actually finished: Diablo 1/2, Neverwinter Nights campaign (ugh, why?), Baldur's Gate 1, Disgaea, Rome Total War campaign mode, Fallout 1/2, Civ games (don't really count IMO), various Final Fantasies

Have not finished: Baldur's Gate 2, Icewind Dale, KOTOR, Dragon Age, Final Fantasy Tactics, Final Fantasy Tactics Advance, Ogre Battle, Tactics Ogre, Etrian Odyssey 2, Etrian Odyssey 3, Starcraft (but that's incompetence), Dark Cloud 2 (forgot all about that game), so many more

Usually what happens is, I get all the powers, and then it's like "got what I came for! Good luck, world in peril, I'm out!" And looking at the games I have finished, a lot of them keep you from getting all the powers during the first playthrough. I guess that must be key.

Oh yeah. Ogre Battle. Don't feel bad, you have to be partially autistic to finish that whole game. I think I've restarted no less than 6 times. I burn through the first 8 battles in about 2 days and then I just look ahead to battles filled with high level enemies and juggling your rep....and ugh. Can't do it. Not even with a tricked out lich/princess party, because that is just a quick trip to the bad endings anyways. OB:MotBQ has so much micro to it if you want to do things well.
