ok, although the halo thread DID give me the idea, it has nothing to do with that... i'm just curious how many actually replay a game after they've beaten it.... the next is at what percentage? and yes i k nwo it'd depend on the game itsself whether you'll pick it up again, but on average of all the games you've owned/played til endgame..... about how many (percentage wise) and you replayed again...

personally i rarely do it.... i've only played a handful again.... golden eye, syphon filter 2, god of war (1 and 2) ssx tricky.....

Most games i complete (even if not 100 percent) i will never pick up and play again.
Apart from the 'sandbox' games like gta , crackdown etc.

Has anyone ever got 100 percent on any of the gta games ?!?!

Yeah I will if it's an open ended game like Elder Scrolls or Silent Hill. But the 2 most replayed games I got would be Resident Evil 4 (PS2), Ace Combat 4/5 (PS2)

If it's a game I like, at least twice. If it's a game I really enjoy or it's highly open ended then even more than that. I've played through the Legacy of Kain series many many times Eternal Darkness, Vagrant Story I've been through many times as well.

Ive done it with every game I own/owned. Usually 3-4 monthes after I orignally played it. The beginning always sucks. And I also have this bad habbit of getting right to the end of a game, and not finishing. Then stop playing for the 3-4 monthes and play a different game, then go back..

Yeah I know, Im crazy.

I guess I'm crazy to cause i do the same thing for most games. I've played a few games over like gears of war and i will probably beat rb6 vegas again soon.

Lots of people do that that i know of. You just get tired of it or you are stuck at a part. Different reasons.

I regularly pull out my NES and SNES and their games. But newer games I rarely do, a lot of times I play through easy, medium and hard to get the achievements on the 360, but that's the extent of my playthrough. And I only have like 4000 out of 300,000 possible achievement points...so it's not that often.

I play PC games, and for the most part, once I beat single player, I move onto multiplayer (if mp is appealing to me for that game, ie. call of duty, return to castle wolfenstein, warcraft 3). Sometime later down the road, I do go back and play single player again just for the fun of it.

I play every single game I own multiple times. Except for a game called Sniper Elite. I got frustrated because you are a sniper, but one of the levels is underground in a Subway. Irritating... But yeah, I love single player and co-op. A good game will make you want to hear the story multiple times.

every final fantasy game ive ever beaten, ive beaten again

FFX, i beat 4 times

i like to run through it the first time without any help and see what happens, then i usually get the strategy guide and pwn the game or go for 100% completion

once i beat it i wont really look at it.

only some games that are fun or have different modes for single player. like medal gear solid, gta, god of war.

It depends entirely on the game. If it has multiple endings, or multiple dialogue options for different characters then I'll play it over and over. There are games I haven't even finished that I play over and over just to get the different options. Some games though just aren't interesting after the first time.

I'd say only a handful as well.

Mainly just the Final Fantasy games. FF7 I played 4 times all the way thru. FFTactics 3x. FF8 2x. FF9 2x. Golden Eye many... many times. Perfect Dark a few times. Pretty much all the old games. None of the new games have me coming back for more.

It really depends on the story line and the music. Really good music will bring me back.
