Games I never finished because of bugs/crashes

As the title suggests this is a list of games I was enjoying until a crash or bug ruined it for me. Either set me back a long time to an early save or the bugs just became so annoying I couldn't take it. In no particular order.

Beyond Good & Evil

A bug stuck me in the floor and somehow I saved my game like that. Pretty sure I was going for quickload and hit quicksave.

S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Shadow of Chernobyl

Fallout 3

Didn't crash but it had some crazy sound bug that got way too annoying to put up with.

Codename: Eagle

If you applied the official patches it completely broke the single player campaign. They knew but didn't seem to care. Neither did I really since the multiplayer was so great. Still, with the amount of time I invested in that I feel like I should have been able to see what single player was all about.

John Woo Presents Stranglehold

For some reason all of the sound in this game sounds like it was recorded through a telephone.

Titan Quest

Oh, you're not going to let me change resolutions at all? You're not going to save any other options I change? I think I'll uninstall you.

Hitman: Blood Money

8. Hitman: Blood Money

Shin Megami Tensei: Persona 3 FES

Your memory card is corrupt.

Diablo III

Not so much a bug or a crash as absolute garbage DRM. My net connection is usually okay playing games within Australia but even after 8 years of WoW players begging Blizzard for servers in Australia they still ignore us. That aside there is absolutely no reason for me to require a net connection during a single player game. If only I'd read about that system before the game came out. I never would have bought it.
