If it means that much you, I suggest you get started on games you know have not played or completed yet. You alone have the choice.
Does anybody else feel guilty about replaying games?

Nah, nothing wrong with revisiting an old friend. Am I a little embarrassed about how many times I've played the Arkham games? Yeah, but that won't stop me from continuing to do so.
I don't think guilty is the word, but I often think "man, I don't have the time to play all the new game" while at the same time replaying the same game again (atm I'm playing trough zone of the enders 2 and xenosaga 1, both game I've played trough at least 4 time each).
But replaying game is great because even if the game doesn't change, we do. And so some stuff I didn't like as a kid I found quite liking and vice versa (I have no idea why I was so tolerant of grinding as a kid, prob cause I only got a new game every 2-3 months). Plus some game have great replay value trough gameplay or story (FFX story is better the 2nd time around imo).

I feel guilty about playing games in general. They are a massive waste of my time that could be spent doing things like learning or creating ... but I love them.
I actually feel less guilty about playing an old game I've played before that I can complete in a few hours as opposed to diving into a time-eater.
