Did you ever give up on a game because it was too hard?

[fillet]

Shadow of the Beast (near the beginning)

Terminator (genesis version)...last level was literally impossible without some knowledge that you had to look in the opposite direction to get the terminator to go past you without dying.

Zork text adventures - lot's of dying.

Myst series....I refuse to cheat...thus I refuse to finish the games.
