Your secret gaming shame

[remnant]

The idea is taken from the http://www.escapistmagazine.com forums.
Some of the funnier responses on escapist forum (source):

I bought smackdown vs raw 2009 over mass effect 2

I didn't really like Half-Life

until the wii I'd never owned a nintendo console and to be fair i only got it for when women come round so the non gamer chicks don't have to sit and watch me earn tactical nukes all night aside from that it doesn't get switched on...

I bought two copies of Brink. One for me and and another for a friend.

I could not get the hang of Fallout and gave up in the first town.

I never finished Fallout 3 and traded it in... for Homefront.

I bought Too Human... Full price... Then snapped the disc after 30 minutes of gameplay.

I'm above level 120 in Runescape (this one I am most ashamed of)

My shame is never finishing games because they frighten me too much.

I never got far in S.T.A.L.K.E.R Shadow of Chernobyl. The first time I heard a Bloodsucker scream, I refused to carry on playing it.

The same for Metro 2033

This is more just something stupid I did, but when I was playing Ace Attorney Investigations: Miles Edgeworth, I didn't know how to save, so I played all the way through the first chapter before I got to save at the "to be continued" checkpoint. Turns out all I had to do to save was press the start button. :/

I enjoyed Too Human.

I liked X-Blades. (link)

I had to finish Bioshock 2 on easy because normal was too hard for me. This has never happened before, I swear.

i play truck simulators.....*Anti Flame Shield*

My computer cant play minecraft...really.

I'm too afraid to continue Half Life 2's ravenholm chapter because of poison headcrabs

My gaming shames are:
1) never played Final Fantasy
2) played Minecraft for about 10 minutes and got bored
3) i'm looking forward to MW3
4) if gamers play sports games on console or PC i use it against them (only in my head, of course)


So...what's your secret gaming shame?

 

[Crzwaco]

Is it still a secret when you tell someone?

 

[Lycanthrope]

Meh... My biggest shame is probably that I enjoy playing The Sims...

One more in line with the OP though would be that I love scary games but I never finish them because I get way too anxious as the tension increases

I bought my brother the Rayman game that he always wanted with my money i was saving for deadspace2.

 

[Phatso]

I didn't really enjoy GoW/Halo...

 

[Maplassie]

I've never finished Amnesia, scared me shitless. I finished Penumbra Overture, Blackplague and Requiem though.
The secret X labs bits in S.T.A.L.K.E.R creep me the F*** out.
The Flying things in undying used to give me shivers for some arb reason when appearing onscreen

Some things to be ashamed about, well mostly, starting with games I never played.

Bioshock 2
Kane and Lynch 2
Batman Arkham Asylum
Kingpin Life of Crime (Full version)
Mafia 1+2
KOTOR 1

Last but not least.

I have over 100 playthrough counts of Deus Ex.

That's nothing to be ashamed of. It's called brother love! 1 up to you bro!

Thing I'm ashamed of, is I am too scared to play scary games! played bioshock 1 for 30 min last night (going to take me years to finish the game! LOL).

And I think dota is epic... ROFL

 

[TBlaar]

I get bored of just about every game that I play... I have only ever finished SC1 and SC2, and Fable 1. (excludes arcade and 8bit games)

 

[Murph]

- I'm addicted to Luxor

Hahahahahaha!!! I just didn't play Bioshock 1 because it bored the living sh*t outta me!

Dota IS epic, there's nothing to be ashamed about! xD

I still don't quite understand this DOTA 'business'.

Care to elaborate on that statement? But seriously, what don't you understand?

Achievement whore :/

 

[Kiruna]

- I've never played dota
- I hate WoW
- I can't get to level 50 in any mmo... ever.
- Rarely finish single player games, even decent story ones - gameplay gets too repetitive
- I bought Star Trek Online... and I still am wearing the free T-shirt where I should have burnt it
- I bought a Halo hoodie and I don't even like Halo that much, it just looked cool
- I've clocked over 25 hours in plants vs zombies
- I play bookworm deluxe

 

[czc]

I haven't gotten to Lvl 50 in BC2 yet.

I'll wait for the Valve version.

I use to play mafia wars on facebook, in my defense, its not really game, more a click shit every day and nothing really happens.
