MAJOR games you've never, ever played.

[diskoboy]

I have to confess....

I've never played Super Mario Bros 3. I've also never played the first 2 Doom's. Same with Grand Theft Auto 3.

I think I just got sick of the SMB series after playing 1 and 2 to death. Didn't play much of Super Mario World when I got my SNES, either. I love Doom 3, never know why I never played the first 2. Probably because I didn't get my first PC until '98. My parents forbid games on theirs. Didn't think the console ports would be any good. GTA3.... Haven't a clue. I've played all the other ones. And I even have the Xbox GTA double pack! But I bought it for Vice City. Okay, you can laugh it up now

So is there a major game you have just never played? I'm sure I've got a ton more, but I just can't think of any at the moment. I'm sure all of us have at least 1...

RPG's, You name it, I think I've only played about 3-4 of theim ever.

FPS'ers, Loved Quake 3 and Unreal online, never could get into any others.

[Johnny_Rock]

I have never played any of the Metrioid games that were on the NES or SNES.

RPG's.... I've also never played any of the N64 Zelda's. Nothing against the games, I just didn't like the N64.

[njiska]

Never played almost every Japanese RPG out there. Never played RE3, never Played Castlevania Dracula X.

I'm sure there's more.

[slip81]

Haven't played Super Metroid, Earthbound, Dracula X, Suikoden II, Myst, and probably a bunch others. I plan on playing all the major games someday, but just haven't gotten around to it yet.

[RetroYoungen]

I've never played Metal Gear Solid. Never felt a need to, to be perfectly honest.

Lessee... Gunstar Heroes, Disgaea (or however it's spelled; I'm friends with a lot of strategy/RPG nuts), any Duke Nukum title (except the Game.com entry, but that one doesn't really count anyway. lol), Diablo and I'm sure there are others.

[drewbrim]

I could name one for almost every system I own, but perhaps the most widespread game I've never played is probably Sonic 2. Amazingly enough I usually enjoy Sonic games. I loved the original, Sonic 3D Blast, Sonic CD, etc... just never played 2. No real good reason for it, I have a copy in a plastic bin approximately 10 feet away from where I'm sitting.

[jcheatle]

For me it's mainly first-person shooters... just never really cared for them so much. So... Quake and its sequels, Unreal Tournament and sequels, Halo 1 (I did play some Halo 2).

Also add in Diablo 1 and 2... um... pretty much anything that's big on Xbox save for Halo 2. And... a lot of the popular Saturn / DC games like Panzer Dragoon or Shenmue.

I'm sure there's a lot of others but that's all I can think of right now.


If we're talking about movies, though, I've purposely avoided seeing any of the Lord of the Rings movies. Not because I dislike Tolkien, but because they came out while I was in college with a lot of nerds who regarded it like the second coming. It got annoying, so I avoided them out of spite.

[Nesmaster]

RPGs other than Earthbound, Mario RPG, Paper Mario, FF: MQ, and maybe one more I'm forgetting at the moment.

Never played Metal gear solid 1 2 or 3... halo 2, diablo 1, 2

Haven't played Katamari Damacy YET, but I will soon enough

Played metroid and super metroid... for about 5 min each.

never played any warcraft games, even though I own #2

RE0, RE3, never played either

Gran Turismo... played #4 for about 2 minutes, and got fed up with the controls. Never played the other 3

Never played a NFS game, except most wanted

Soul Calibur, DOA, Tekken.... never played any of them

That's all I can come up with for now...

[Mr.FoodMonster]

RPG's in general. There are a few I like, but they are far between, and are usually action RPG's or dungeon crawlers.

[Darth Sensei]

Never played any Final Fantasy game ever.

[squidblatt]

It would probably be easier for me to name all the major console releases I have played than those I have not. I was pretty much strictly PC before this gen, and hadn't owned a console since Intellivision. I played a few games with my brother, but mainly I ignored every console. I probably still would if PC rpgs still existed.

[Jumpman Jr.]

I'm sure there's tons, but I'll try to think of a few:

ET (2600), All though not that BIG, I'm sure most people have at least tried this game a few times. Oh, same with Combat, I've never played that either.

NES - Legend of Zelda. Not yet at least. I'm not sure why.

SNES - Earthbound, and Chrono Trigger.

N64 - Paper Mario, all of the Mario Party's, Perfect Dark

Thats all I can think of. Funny though, as I do actually own most of the games that I listed.

[Zilla]

Major series I havent played are numerous. In the realm of Mario I havent played Mario 64 or Sunshine. The only Zelda I have ever played is Zelda 1. I havent played any Metroids. I have only played Sonic 1 and 2. There are more but it would take all day to go through. I could look at it as though I'm deprived or something but instead just means I have a ton of awesome games to play still and thats always good.

[AKay]

I never got to play metroid prime i love the 2d versions im not big on solo fps games, multiplayer ok but i never play socom, pdz, halo or quake for the single player missions.
I actually bought metroid prime the first day it came out and never opened it lol.

[s1lence]

I've never played RE2, 3 or 4. I've never played ICO either or Shadow of Colosiss.

I've also never played Chrono Trigger on the SNES. I really need to get on that one.

[Retsudo]

Never played any RPG. Never had any interest in them.

Never played any Madden or NBA Live game.

Never played any Dynasty Warriors game. Always wanted to try the first back when it was a fighting game.

[fishsandwich]

Never played Adventure for Atari 2600. Never played any Madden or EA Hockey game, EVER, on ANY system. Never played a Metal Gear Solid game. Never played the 2nd Zelda game on N64.

[Geddon_jt]
