Games That Are So Good You Bought Then Twice

[Adamc-mh]

Metal Gear Solid 1,2,3,4 and the whole Jak and Daxter trilogy as well as Rayman 3

 

[Sansha]

Fallout 3.

I bought it on Steam, then a retail copy, then all the DLC's from retailers, then the GOTY edition, which is the game and all DLC's on one disk, from a retailer, all for PC.

Never gave a fuck. Life-changing game.

True story: I once got drunk and then gave away all my games to a roommate, who was moving back to his home state in just a week or two (from Charleston, SC to NotCharleston, Virginia). My 360 was currently dead and I was very busy back then, so I didn't remember I had done that until he had already moved.

The ones I ended up buying again:
-Mass Effect 1 and 2
-Red Dead Redemption
-Dragon Age: Origins
-Assassin's Creed 2
-Alpha Protocol

Yeah, I tend to give things away when I'm drunk.

Most recently I bought Dark Souls for both my xbox and PS3 and I guess I will be getting the PC version too.

I also bought Skyrim for my xbox and then PC because I do love a second play through with mods.

 

[Guffe]

I bought Warraft III The Frozen Throne twice because my disk broke and the no-disc-required-patch hadn't come out yet. Both for PC thou.

 

[Generic Redshirt]

I got Demon stone for the Ps2 and then when my Ps2 upped and joined the choir invisible I ended up getting a PC version under the assumption that I wouldn't bother replacing it. I since have done.

Minecraft is the only one ive bought more than once, and planning on buying again. I bought it on pc, IPhone and when it comes out on the 360 I'll get it again. ITs probably the only game worthy of that, of course teh systems are radically different, but its not like id buy assassins creed on both the 360 and pc. dont see the point really.

I never really bought a game more than once. I rented Splinter Cell: Conviction, then used a free game coupon on it later. The closest I've come to buying a game more than once is MMOS. I bought two copies of Ultima Online and three copies of World of Warcraft for multiple accounts.

Well, I got Left 4 Dead 2 on Xbox when it came out, and then quite recently on PC as well.
I got the Orange Box on Xbox, and later built up all the games of which it is comprised on Steam. When Skyrim came out, I got it for my birthday on Xbox and then bought the PC version for myself. I have Bioshock on Xbox and my Dad bought it on our shared Steam account as well. I think that's it...

Oh yeah, and I sold Oblivion once then got it again later.

Also my Fallout 3 disc became inexplicably burnt (apparently by the disc tray...) so I treated myself to the GOTY edition.

 

[Saulkar]

Just Cause! I originally bought it for the Xbox but then the Xbox 360.

 

[Sealpower]

Not sure if it counts as "so good you bought them twice" but whatever...

I've got:
2x Half-Life 2
2x Garry's mod
2x Rainbow Six 3 Gold
2x Neverwinter Nights 2

For LAN multiplayer purposes (yep, my friends are cheapskates)

Furthermore I got 2 copies of Oblivion; Retail PC and the GOTY on Steam since it was cheaper to buy the GOTY than the retail version of thew Shivering Isles expansion.

Also multiple copies of various Zelda games on multiple platforms.

 

[Furioso]

Psychonauts for 360 and PC
Cthulhu Saves the World for 360 and PC
Fallout 3/NV for 360 and PC

I prefer the PC version for all of them

 

[Luap26]

Diablo 2, I bought that game 5 times. First when it First come out. Then my CD got worn out and had to buy a battle chest, Repeat that 4 more times.

 

[EHKOS]

Reparations for Piracy

Haha, I've done that before too.

OT: Bioshock, one for PC and one for PS3 so I could get a platinum.
I accidentally bought two Mark of Kri copies because I forgot I already had one.
I just bought Jak and Daxter HD for the HD and trophy support.

 

[Bloodtrozorx]

I bought and sold Red Dead Redemption then regretted it and purchased it again. Love that game and no I refuse to do John's last mission again, fool me once shame on you. On the other hand I purchased Too Human a second time because my friend was still playing it and it was $5.

 

[Nargleblarg]

I have

2x Mass Effect 1 (collectors and normal)
3x Mass Effect 2 (collectors, normal, and PC)
2x Fallout 3 (360 and PC)
2x Kotor (Xbox and PC)
2x Oblivion (original PC and GOTY PC)

Not sure if it counts but I do have 2 WoW accounts up to Cataclysm. (only 1 active though)

 

[Andaxay]

I bought three copies of Oblivion, one on each platform. Same with Portal 2. I bought Portal 2 on PS3 at launch, mostly for the Steam code, of course then the PSN went done so I traded it and got it on PC instead. Then on 360 for co-op fun.

 

[Wereduck]

So far only San Andreas & Lego Star Wars but I'm waiting for Steam sale(s) to pick up Fallout 3, New Vegas and X-COM (Enemy Unknown) for PC.

 

[Irridium]

Bought Timesplitters 2 and Future Perfect on the PS2, Xbox, and Gamecube.

I fucking love Timesplitters.
