Games you abandoned then returned to

For the last couple weekends I decided to delve into my gamecube collection. Last weekend I spent the weekend playing Soul Calibur 2, a game that had me so frustrated I gave up on it halfway through completing Weapon Master Mode. I beat the rest of the game in two days and unlocked everything.

Then this previous weekend I decided I would play some Mario Kart Double Dash. When I left off, I had beaten everything up to the Flower Cup in Mirror mode. I now have beaten everything and unlocked all the characters and karts, including the golden parade kart.

Has anyone else done this?

This happens to me sometimes, but I can't think of any examples right now.

The Descent games are always fun to come back to. I have almost every game. The only one I dont have is Descent Underground.

Final Fantasy 2 on the NES, Devil May Cry, Mike Tyson's Punch Out, and The Adventures of Lolo. I do it quite often, I play a lot of the game, then I get burnt out on it and don't play for a long time. Those examples are just the more recent ones.

Practically every game I've owned in the past few years. I almost never finish a game.

NBA JAM TE on the Saturn. I always seem to delete my NBA JAM save when i'm cleaning out my Saturn's internal memory

Smackdown 2 (PSone)
Metal Slug (Saturn & PSone)
Metal Slug X (PSone)
Superfire Pro G (PSone)
SFA 3 (Saturn)

Metroid Prime 2. Played a bit then abandoned. Came back and played it some more, but then abandoned it again. I don't like the two worlds thing much, it makes navigation too difficult and pointlessly time consuming.

Ecco The Dolphin Defender of the Future.

That was one of the hardest games I have ever played, and one of the best. I got it when it first came out and didnt beat it till maybe a year or two ago.

^Ditto. Although I still haven't beaten it. Despite what other forum members may think, I really like that game.

Jak & Daxter - Owned this game for about a year and half, i played it a few times but it ticked me off. Then one day i sat down and played it for a few hours, once doing so i didnt want to put the controller. The same can be said for the Ratchet & Clank series.

The last two are Indigo Prophecy and Gun.

Those are the last two games I bought too.

I just went back to Indigo Prophecy two days ago. I never realized how fun this game is.
