Games you almost finished but haven't

When last I played Dragon Quest VIII, I got my clock cleaned by Rhapthorne. I don't have the disc anymore (I think my sister does), so I can't replay the game to get back up to that point.

No More Heroes 2. Final boss' second form. Bitter mode.

Motherfucker. -_-

GTA: San Andreas i left it in the last mission (chasing Tenpenny) the fact that i lost my memory card certainly didn't help

Castlevania 1, stuck on Dracula.

Boktai 2. Loved the game, but dealing with Jormungandr and having to fiddle with the sunlight was too much of a pain for me to finish the fight.

Both Final Fantasy 6 and Chrono Trigger I got to the last boss (last dungeon in FF 6's case) and got completely and utterly murdered. I'm pretty much morally opposed to grinding for grinding's sake, so I haven't gone back to either since then.

Sonic 3 & Knuckles: I just got to the second part of the game. I'm not sure if getting the super emeralds is worth it, though.

Layton 3: Just been putting it down for study guides and other reading material. :(

^^Really? I think I had more problems with the Black Omen than Lavos itself.

Ghost Recon: Advanced Warfighter 2, PC version.

GODDAMN MEXICAN/AMERICAN BORDER LEVEL

-shakes fist-

I finally beat Hydorah!

I may be one of the five people in the world who never actually beat StarCraft without cheating. I got to the final mission, though.

I'm not really good at real time strategy games.

Strange Journey. Last time I played it, I was grinding my ass off so that my team might stand a chance against the final boss of the Law route; I haven't actually touched my DS in months.

My entire party ranges from high 70s to mid-80s, by the way, and it still only takes two or three turns for the final boss to mop the floor with them. Worse, even with an item that increases how much XP I get from battles, my team is accumulating it at an agonizingly slow rate.

Lost Magic: Got up to the Twisted Wand castle and just... quit.

Super Paper Mario: I was IN the castle in THE VOID and... just quit.

Still haven't beat Metroid Prime 2, come to think of it. Emperor Ing isn't hard so much as goddamn tedious, and then the timed boss right after him is so fiddly and losing to it requires beating Emperor Ing again... ugh, I eventually gave up.

Maken Shao: Got to the Forbidden City (Final level, though I'm not sure if it is the final level for every path, or just mine.), and got stuck at a point where I have to kill four Dancers, two at a time, without healing.

Super Paper Mario. I didn't like it much as the first two installments so I stopped playing when I got to chapter 7

• Final Fantasy 4. Got to the moon and got curb-stomped.
• Final Fantasy 6. Setzer joined my party. Computer died.

Now that I have Windows 7, I want to start playing them again and finish 'em. Taking suggestions for which versions/patches/romhacks of FF4, FF6, and Final Fantasy 5 I should play(I still haven't played that one yet).

Besides the not touching the DS part, this exactly. I love this game a whole lot, but the final boss is a bitch, and I'd rather not be cheap and use password demons.
