Games you've played multiple times through

[RedvsBlue]

Title says it all, any games that you've played through multiple times? I don't mean multiplayer or puzzle games but mostly games with a storyline.

For me it would have to be Metal Gear Solid. I think I played it through 3 times in a row when I first got it when it came out. I've played it at least once or twice through since then. I'm not sure why but I just love the storyline and gameplay. For the most part though, especially lately, once I beat a game I rarely go back to it.

See the signature.

Other favorites would include all of the other LA adventure games, plus (if this counts) would be logging over 100 hours on MvsC2 for Dreamcast.

Breath of Fire 1,2
Freedom Fighters

[JebusMcLucifer]

Super Mario World (SNES & GBA)
Star Wars: KOTOR (XBOX)

[Final Starman]

Ace Combat 4

The game is pretty short, even shorter when you know the levels and have the better planes. It's still fun though. AC5 is even better.

[guardian_owl]

Headhunter (DC) - 9 times

[Riptard]

I've beaten Metal Gear Solid about ten times.

[smalien1]

POkemon, once in red once in blue

[Lizard Axe]

Star Ocean 2. I lost count of how many times I've beaten it.

Star Ocean 1. 2 or 3 times.

Valkyrie Profile: Once on each difficulty.

[Cerberu5]

Silent Hill (1, 2, and 3) - 4x each at least
Resident Evil (REmake and 2) - 3x each
Halo - 2x
GTA 3 - 2x
GTA VC - 3x
GTA SA - 2x

[Xtreme331]

Hmmm... short list:
Metal Gear Solid
Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty
Final Fantasy X
Diablo
Knights of the old Republic (well not quite yet, but really, really, really close)
Super Mario Brothers
SMB 2
SMB 3
hmm... ok i know there's more... especially on the older consoles... I'll get back to this...

[Gabers]

I've played through Rez every month since it's release, but since it's short, I'm not sure if I could count it. Next up, though would be Metal Gear Solid.

[cheapass Gundam]

Silent Hill 2 - played it at least 6 times and saw all the endings.

Sakura Wars - played so many versions of the original, probably more than 10 times already. This classic never gets old.

Fatal Frame - played several times to get the unlockables. The original is damn scary even on replays.

Illbleed - even after unlocking everything and maxing out on all character upgrades, this game is still tons of fun. Disarm traps or set them off on purpose... battle with scary bosses and enemies... tons of B-movie humor!

Patlabor Game Edition - what can I say, I love Patlabor!

[worx]

Hm..

KOTOR / KOTOR 2 - had to be evil..then good
Fable
Halo 2 (Finally made it in Heroic, working on legenary)
Super Mario World
Super Mario Bros. 3
Donkey Kong Country
Star Fox

[TheRock88]

Resident Evil 2
Resident Evil 3
MGS2
MGS3

[GenDV138]

MGS 1 PS
SMB 3 NES
Battletoads

I know there's more, but I can't think of much

[RedvsBlue]

Wow, and I thought I played video games too much. Of course I have a short attention span so I spread it around when it comes to playing different games. Two weeks ago it was Shin Megami, last week was Madden Franchise mode, and this week it seems to be Kingdom under Fire...

[CaptainObviousXl]

i beat most of my games more than once

[My Name Is BoB]

Super mario rpg at least 4 times.

[Skylander7]

Well, since I'm shocked nobody else has said it yet... Rez. I've played the hell out of that game.

Also Chrono Trigger, Final Fantasy VI, Wing Commander games, Suikoden II, and most of the Legacy of Kain series. I'm sure there's more, but those are the ones at the top of my head

[The-Bavis]

Mainly NES titles...

Zelda
Zelda 2
SMB3
Mike Tyson's Punch Out
Final Fantasy
Dragon Warrior
Metroid
Zelda for SNES

Clearly, I used to have more time and fewer good games back in the day. Can't think of any games from 16-bit on other than Zelda that I played through more than once.

[pumbaa]

Space Channel 5... a lot. So much that I can anticipate the patterns... what can I say I'm a sucker for music games.

[RedvsBlue]

I think that is it for this generation. Many I have played 1.5 times, but I never end up finishing them

That's me too. I can't even think of all the games where I thought I liked it enough to play through again but then quickly lose interest.

[WinnieThePujols]

OK. Well, a lot of RPGs I've played through a lot, just not neccessarily beat. Like, for instance, Final Fantasy 8. I think I've got to halway through the disk on that game a half a dozen times. I always lose interest, though..

I've got really far in Crono Trigger a number of times, never beat it.

Played -- although never beaten -- Earthbound a ton of times.

Final Fantasy VII I know I've at least beat twice...

Um....yeah, very few games I've actually played through completely multiple times...

[goldengraham]

I've beaten ratchet and clank 1-3 at least 3 times each, had to get all those bolts for those maxed out weapons and developer crap, realll the only game series i play though multiple times rather quickly

[WinnieThePujols]

I've played
Diablo II (once played 4 days straight w/o sleep, except to take food, or bathroom breaks) [5]


LMFAO. Reminds me of when I first got Morrowind...

[wubb]

The only game I've played through more than once on the current gen is Splinter Cell. Beat it on normal and played through almost the entire thing again on hard.

Games drop in price so quickly now (maybe because discs are a lot less expensive to produce than carts?) that I'd rather buy a new game for $10 or less to play fresh than play through a game I have a 2nd time.

Going back to old school systems there are probably quite a few games I've played multiple times.

Final Fantasy
SMB (all of them)
Mario 64
Wave Race 64

Lots of others I'm sure.

[Engineer_J]

all the classic Nintendo titles, usually again on my GBA

Metroid, SMB 1,2,3, World, Mario 64

Contra, Wizards & Warriors

Sim City, Civilization

[tcrash247]

Diablo 2 multiple times with mutiple characters
Metal Gear Solid 2
Most fighting games where you had to beat it with different characters
Tony Hawk games with different characters
Contra for NES
Twisted Metals
I'm sure there are more, but I can't think of them now.

[wastedyears]

This year:

Shin Megami Tensei: Nocturne
Disgaea
Final Fantasy X

[The_Continental]

Freedom Fighters
MGS 1,2,3
Castlevania SOTN

Diablo II - man like every character multiple times ... still playing

And basically everything I had on the NES when I was a kid.

[broke]

Baldur's Gate 1 & 2 (PS2)
I'm currently playing Champions of Norath and I've started over twice (after being about half way through) for various reasons. It doesn't work on PS2s that are on their last legs (i.e. can't read dvd-coded games).
Great game though if you like that kind of stuff.

[catacasa]

One summer when I was 10 or so, my parents only allowed me to play video games for one hour each day. I ended up playing Rygar on the NES every day. It was the only game we had at the time that you could beat in just under an hour. It is by far the only game I have played through many, many times...ever more so than SMB.

[notfromtexas]

Contra-Nes

Kingdom hearts-2x
KOTOR-3x, good, bad, female bad
Suikoden 3-2x needed an rpg fix
Baldurs Gate D.A.- beat itprobably 4 or 5 times with and without friends

[ResidentialEvil]

Pretty much all the Resident Evil and Silent Hill games I've played multiple times through, with probably RE2 being the one I've played through the most.

[Poodleman]

Barbies Horse Adventure ---- 4x
