What Drought? Video Games I Have Yet to Complete

With the arrival of Boom Boom Rocket today on Xbox Live Arcade, I am officially in over my head with games I have started but have yet to complete. Typically, I devote myself to one game and finish it before I buy another. In fact, prior to this generation of consoles, I can’t even think of a game I didn’t finish. But work and a social life have made this nearly impossible with this newest generation of consoles.
Take a look at my current list of incomplete games (in order of importance, but not necessarily priority, to me):
- Okami (PS2)
- God of War II (PS2)
- Guitar Hero II (360)
- Super Paper Mario (Wii)
- flOw (PS3)
- Boom Boom Rocket (XBLA)
- Resident Evil 4 (PS2)
- Trauma Center: Second Opinion (Wii)
- Zuma (XBLA)
- Cooking Mama (Wii)
- Prince of Persia: The Two Thrones (PS2)
- Elebits (Wii) (this one I have finished but would like to unlock everything)
This list disregards games like Ico and Shadow of the Colossus that I would love to go back and replay from start to finish again.
So, what’s on your list?

My list is all over the map:
* Peggle (PopCap Games, PC)
* Saints Row (Xbox 360)
* Zelda: Twilight Princess (Wii)
* Call of Duty 3 (Xbox 360)
* Elebits (Wii)
* SSX Blur (Wii)
* World of Warcraft (PC)
Because of my list, my WoW characters are level 17 and 20 - I’ve been playing (again) since February. I’m not getting too far.
Now my wife just got me Paper Mario for the wii from http://www.techdiversions.com (yes, shameless plug for our video game store).
I’ve pretty much decided CoD3 is a no-go for completion. I was halfway through Veteran mode (since I beat CoD2 on veteran I figured I’d beat CoD3 as well) but it is REALLY hard to jump back into veteran mode after playing Wii games for so long. I beat it on standard so maybe its time to just let go… let go jack… just let go.
Everytime I want to go back and play something a new game comes out. I haven’t even got to try Rainbow Six Vegas yet, and I wanted Battlestations: Midway too.
The life of a busy gamer… you cannot keep up…
