Still have a unfinished Half-Life 2 game going, and Deus Ex: Human Revolution and Bioshock are sitting around waiting for me to play.

What? Half-Life 2 is one of my all time favorite games, I couldn't stop playing it. How do you quit before the end?

Skyrim - Really got into it for a while, loved it. I was right at the end of the main storyline with over forty hours of play time and my game save got corrupted. Was over a year ago, restarted recently, but it is kind of hard to get back into without thinking of how cool my other character was and how much time I already invested in the game. I feel like I am spending hours doing stuff I already did before.

How come you couldn't recover a uncorrupted save? Did you not have multiple saves? Xbox version?

Xbox version using a USB drive for a save device, I was switching back and forth between TV's a lot, so keeping them on a USB drive worked well. But then the Xbox told me the drive wasn't formatted. No problem, that happens every now and then when using a flash drive on Xbox, just got to pop it in the computer, copy the Xbox saves off, reformatted it, load them back on. But this time there was no data to be found anywhere, no recoverable data, nothing. I tried several different methods, before finally giving up.
