You must suck because you didn't get enough Jiggys 2. There are no save points in those games. How can you be stuck at the final save points in Banjo-Kazooie and Tooie?

1. You must suck because you didn’t get enough Jiggys
2. There are no save points in those games.

Contrast with: Final Fantasy 7 - lost thread of plot halfway through Summoner - lost thread of plot halfway through Dark Cloud - Ugh, dungeon crawl Dungeon Seige - Ugh, dungeon crawl Diablo - Ugh, dungeon crawl Yeah, no guilt here. My list:

Ico – stuck at final save point before final boss battle
Beyond Good & Evil – stuck at final save point before final boss battle
GTA3 – Completed plot; stuck on “fire truck” mission for 100%
GTA: Vice City – Completed plot; stuck on “fire truck” mission for 100%
Banjo Kazooie – stuck at final save point before final boss battle
Banjo Tooie – stuck at final save point before final boss battle
Star Ocean 2 – lost thread of plot halfway through
Okage: Shadow King – lost thread of plot halfway through
Chrono Cross – lost thread of plot halfway through

However, these are all games that I would (and in almost every case already have) play again up to the point where I get stuck because they’re very fun until then.

Contrast with:

Final Fantasy 7 – lost thread of plot halfway through
Summoner – lost thread of plot halfway through
Dark Cloud – Ugh, dungeon crawl
Dungeon Seige – Ugh, dungeon crawl
Diablo – Ugh, dungeon crawl

Yeah, no guilt here.
