CONFESSIONAL: What's that (beatable) game that you've just never been able to beat?!

Prince of Persia: Warrior Within(Xbox)- got past the part where someone tells me how to unlock the chamber for the final boss. Unlocked one part, after that I just turned it off cause of the cheap deaths(if a enemy ,i.e. a bird, hits you in mid-air, you're fucked).

Mega Man X5 & X6(Ps1)- beat all the regular stages, but kept dying on the spikes for first part of the "final" stage for X6. X5 was due to the first Sigma battle.
 
[quote name='daroga']Chemical Plant was the second world in the game. ;)[/quote]What!? Then what was.....oh wait, Oil Ocean. THAT'S what I was thinking about this entire time. Chemical Plant, yeah, now it's all coming back. And yeah, that brings more frustration than Oil Ocean.
 
[quote name='ChaoticClimax']I the only games I flat out couldn't beat, not because of losing interest (Metroid Prime, FF8) are the Resident Evil games, with the exception of 4. Those games are fucking impossible, I get anxious every time I use a bullet or health item because I fear I'll never be able to beat the game because I should have saved it for later.[/QUOTE]
I have exactly the same problem including 4...I have replayed parts of RE4 over and over trying to do save more bullets/health. I got frustrated after getting into the castle with a fairly small supply of ammo and restarted.
I haven't beaten the first Pikmin for exactly the same reason. I keep playing a single day over and over until I am satisfied that I have done it as well as possible so that I don't get to the end and run out of days (for the record, the last time I played, I had more days left than parts to get, but I was having trouble getting all three parts that I wanted to get the next day without killing off half of my Pikmin).

I also haven't finished SMB - though I am working on it. I just got through 7 last night. And although I did beat SMW, I never managed to beat the 8th castle - I went around it through the star area to beat bowser.

I have yet to get through a single advance wars, as I have trouble accepting anything less than 100 for my score at the end of the level.
 
[quote name='fart_bubble']I've never met anyone who could beat Zombies Ate My Neighbors, after the giant baby and the leatherface monsters you run out of continues[/quote]
Yeah, that's pretty much why I've never finished it was due to that giant baby.

There's another one that I completely blocked until remembering last night is Final Fantasy IX(PS1). I get to the first form of the last boss and within a minute, completely slaughters my party. I kept going back to leveling them up, but it doesn't help. After about 10 tries and leveling up more each time, I said fuck it and sold the game. I pretty much gave up on RPGs after that. The only RPG I've played after that was Skies of Arcadia Legends.
 
Two Dreamcast games come to mind, D2 and MDK 2. I made it up to the last boss in D2. You have to hit a specific part on the boss and I've never been able to hit to trigger the final cinema. In MDK2 I beat the game with the scientest but not with the other two characters.
 
Zombies Ate My Neighbors was great co-op fun until that damn baby. Got to the point we just played until we saw one and turned the game off. Saved alot of controllers that way.

I beat this game 2 summers ago and my advice is: Save all potions for babies and snakes.
 
Damn metroid prime 1 and 2. just never had the will to finish them. Actually it is rare that i finish a game but thoes really stuck out as i enjoyed them but just could not finish.
 
I am currently on the last boss in Shadow of the Colossus. I cannot beat it. In fact, I have spent nearly the past two hours alone trying to kill the son of a bitch. It's making me start to hate this game I've come to love so much.
 
Another one I just thought of: the original Metroid on NES. I definitely never beat it on my own. I do remember playing it a lot though as a kid. :( I'm not sure if I ever beat it using the Justin Bailey code, either, though I might have.
