Games you wanted to play but never did

[Samven]

Exactly what it says on the tin. Are there any games you always wished you could play but, for one reason or another, never got around to? And what were those reasons?

For me, it's Chrono Cross. It sounds like the perfect game for me and I never got to play it. Ruddy Square and their hatred of Europe. >_<

I still haven't played ES: Arena, or Daggerfall, or Shenmue II.

I wanted to play Skyrim, but then I got an arrow to the knee!

 

[Demiurge]

I want to play Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep so bad. It's my favorite series. But I can't afford a psp.

Same goes for KH: Dream Drop Distance on the 3DS. Curse you Square and your multi-platforming. >:[

Legend of Dragoon. I managed to play through discs 1-2 but then found my disc 3 had a crack, rendering it unplayable.

Shadow of the Colossus and Valkyria Chronicles - I never got around to purchasing them and chances are I never will.

You know, it was never funny to begin with and it's certainly not funny now.

You interests definitely seem to suite you.

So I've been told.

 

[Nemoide]

I already have 286 games I ALREADY OWN but haven't beaten on my backlog - 93 have never been played.

I can't let myself start thinking about other games in addition to those!

A game I wanted to play for a long time would be Chrono Trigger. I have the game, but I never play it... scratch that. I have played Chrono trigger. I had a brain fart. a game I want to play would be well...the entire Tales of series!

I can't think of any game at this moment since I usually end up playing them sooner or later.

But I felt like replying to that;

Shadow of the Colossus and Valkyria Chronicles - I never got around to purchasing them and chances are I never will.

Don't own a ps3 or...? Valkyria Chronicles is really fun. I bought it 2 weeks ago and I just couldn't put the controller down until finished. The whole thing, from gameplay to music to story to graphics is fun and addicting. It was a bit easy but the new game + definitely gives it an edge. My only disappointment was the last boss, which I butchered in 2 rounds (perhaps I'm just pro cause I've checked on youtube to see how other did and they sweat it -pops collar-).

Shadow of the Colossus is simply magical, and full of magical moments, I played it on the ps2 but I'm highly tempted to get it on ps3 full HD.

Valk was a great play. The gameplay was a fresh take on tactics games and it was thoroughly enjoyable. I'm 50-50 on the story. Plenty of the cheese common in animé based stuff, really. You either develop a tolerance or laugh at how terribly dialogue was localized.

I own one, but just like my 360 it's gathering a lot of dust at the moment. Plus chances are no stores near me will carry a copy (or they'll have a used copy which I will not buy); and I also have a backlog of games I need to get to first.

 

[Espon]

I usually play almost anything that I've wanted to these days...there's not many games that come out that interest me lately.

Back in the SNES days there was a number of games I was wanting to play but they were never released outside of Japan...and then along came the internet and fan translations.

Every time someone does that I want to shoot them in the knee with a bow and arrow. Just so it can be true. God, I hate that stupid meme.

Hehe, I do too, the decent ones are ok, but because of all the bad ones it's very stale. Honestly, I never really understood why it became a meme anyway, I thought mudcrabs where a better one!

Do it.... Do it now!

Yes, in particular, try and get your grubby mits on Tales of Phantasia, just the music was enough to make it my favourite game ever! :3

Shining Force III

I have Shining Force 3 on the Saturn but still refuse to play it, I don't want to ruin it by being unable to play Scenario 2 and 3.
