Traitor's Gate: Loved the game, but I bought a new system, and just never got around to reinstalling so I didn't finish. I guess maybe I didn't love it all that much.
Beyond Atlantis 2: Tech problem
The Longest Journey: Tech problem, but probably would have given up anyway. Waaaay too much talking.
Riven: Bored to tears.
Qin: Number One on my list of all time boring games. I think I played all of 30 minutes before deciding this wasn't my cup of tea.

1, the Legend of Lotus Spring - lousy interface
2, Oddyssey, In Search of Ulysses - too hard to move around
3, the crystal key - yuck!
4, as of yesterday - Rhem - too many pipes - I don't want to be a plumber! also, very dingy scenery, and buildings that are like mazes
Forgot to add - American McGee's Alice - shudder!

Ah! I forgot about Rhem. First time I played, and got dumped to 640x480, I said this isn't going to work. Wish I was among the lucky few who traded, rather than paid for it as I did.
This game, unlike Qin, didn't last 30 minutes. It didn't last 30 seconds.

Fork in the Tale. So awful I don't even want to favor it with words.

So, I just gave up. -----Riddle of The Sphinx -----Alfred Hitchcock: The Final Cut <img border="0" title="" alt="[Razz]" src="tongue.gif" /> <img border="0" title="" alt="[Razz]" src="tongue.gif" /> <img border="0" title="" alt="[Razz]" src="tongue.gif" />

I gave up on The Time Machine. That was a major stinker. I also played Odyssey for about an hour and gave up on that as well. A few games I have just not gotten around to finish, like Omega Stone, Nautilus. I plan to, though.

Just thought of some more pet baddies...
Urban Runner - I get exhausted every time I even think of this game
Night Trap - blech
Panic In the Park - I detest anything arcade
MadDog McCree - see above reason.
DogDays - liked the game ok - but an arcade machine in a laundry room stopped me cold.
