What does it take for me to finish a Big Studio/Big Money/Big Platform video game?

In the nine years since I was given my first PlayStation I've purchased roughly two-dozen big studio games. Of those, my rate of completion is (shamefully?) low. Near as I can tell, I've made it to the end of 12 of these narratives — averaging one-and-a-quarter games a year.

Here's the list of games completed, divided into two categories — see if you can spot what makes the second category unique from the first.

• BioShock, I, II, III
• Wolfenstein, The New Order (“Blaz” and I go way back...)
• Batman: Arkham Asylum
• Assassin's Creed I
• FarCry 3

Category 2:

• FallOuts 3, New Vegas, 4
• Oblivion, Skyrim

I will throw in one more title I am on-track to completing in the next month or so: Horizon Zero Dawn, which, although it is not a Bethesda Studios property, almost has the criterion necessary to make it to the second list. Stay tuned...

"You hear that? He's going to finish!"
