What games did you finish, and then immediately start again?

[ArtemusClydeFrog]

I almost always do that with every game I play to be honest.
But it was most evident with Oblivion, Fallout3 and New Vegas, since playing those games for so and so many hours as a certain kind of character with a focus on certain skills and support of certain factions always made me want to start over again and do the exact opposite of everything I had done so far.
I'm uncertain though whether that even counts as playing a game "again". I mean, I immediately started playing Arkham Asylum again when I'd beat it, and that was basically the same great experience. But for instance, playing NV as a sneaky, evil character with 100 speech skill, only interacting with people and places you didn't encounter on your first play through as a lawful brawler character seems very different to that.

Icewind Dale II.
There wasn't even a pause.

Fire Emblem: Shadow Dragon.
Currently playing for about the fourth time.

I wouldn't think that racing sim's really count, but I've played Grand Prix Circuit and Mario Kart DS plenty of times.

SkiFree, Minesweeper, Hearts, Lander...

 

[Arina Love]

Kotor 1 and 2
Mass Effect 1 and 2
Agarest
Ar Tonelico Qoga
all of them i played through at least 2 times in a row.

Alice madness returns. It didn't leave the Ps3 until I got the platinum trophy.

Also just today I booted up a new game+ after beating Ico for the first time.

That is the coolest avatar I've ever seen. Stunts was unchallenged in my prized memories until I discovered Trackmania.

 

[Tyrant T100]

Dark Messiah of Might and Magic I finished on a Sunday, replayed it the following Sunday and then replayed it again 9 days later on the Tuesday.

 

[LookingGlass]

Dark Messiah of Might and Magic I finished on a Sunday, replayed it the following Sunday and then replayed it again 9 days later on the Tuesday.

The combat system and level design in that game kick ass.

Alas, I've only played it once so far as I only found out about it a couple of months ago.

 

[Ultra Man30]

Paper Mario. So. Many. Times.

Seriously, everyday after school when I was in second grade I would go home after school and beat it. It got to the point where I could finish it in one afternoon.

 

[Sumrex]

Bioware games in general mostly because i wanted to see all the "classes"

 

[lRookiel]

Baldurs gate, went from a warrior to a mage within an hour of beating the game, and then beat it again!

Portal 2, because I just loved every second of it....

 

[Cheesus333]

Fable 2. Given the nature of the game it's pretty obvious why. I've completed it ten times to date, if I remember right.

Also Mass Effect, can't remember if it was 1 or 2 or both. Same reasoning.

 

[SovietX]

All the Uncharted and Medal Gear Solid games.

Can't get enough of Drake / Snake.

 

[Anthan]

Okami for me. Many many times... after the third playthrough back to back I slowed down and played some other things but always kept playing it regularly even to the present day. I must be on something like my 70+th playthrough by now.

 

[Cogwheel]

Bastion.

Sacrifice, too, where I did this three times.

 

[Jabbawocky]

Dragon Age Origins, Mass Effect, Half-Life, Portal, Star Wars Rougue Squadron. There are more but I can remember these ones.

 

[putowtin]

These are the ones I can remember off the top of my head:

inFamous 1 and 2
Assassin's Creed 2
Mass Effect 1 and 2
KotOR II
Saint's Row 2
and all of the Uncharted's

 

[ParanoidEngineer]

Alpha Protocol.
Stealth focus, Rome, Moscow, Taipei.
Run and gun with shotugn and SMG, Taipei, Moscow, Rome
Gadget Focus, Moscow, Taipei, Rome
Veteran, Moscow, Rome Taipei.
And so on until I'd done it through with all the different setups.
Then I realised I could recite the first mission's dialogue off by heart, and decided I should move on.
So I did the same thing with Mass Effect...
Please don't judge me.

 

[FunctionZ]

Sonic 3 and Gunstar Heroes when I was younger.

I wish I had the time to reply some of the great RPG's that provide a different story/experience when you reply but I don't have much time to play per-week and I want to play the rest of the games I have.

 

[Terramax]

Farcry2, beautiful game, funny story and interesting gameplay.

Same here.

Well, I play a lot of arcade games, so most games for me, assuming I like them enough to play them to the end the first time round.

 

[immortalfrieza]

Playing games over and over (and over and over and over...) again is kind of my thing, but it's usually after quite a while. As for games which I have back to back two in particular stand out, that being Chrono Trigger and it's sequel Chrono Cross. This is especially Chrono Trigger, I've played that game almost as many times as there are endings, I've seen every one of them, though not necessarily restarting the game every time, usually on new game+, and back to back plenty of times. However, my most recent plays are just starting from scratch, because I got bored of the ease.

As for Chrono Cross, I haven't played it anywhere near as much as Chrono Trigger, and only played it in New Game+ once that I recall, because I enjoyed the combat much more when there was actual challenge to it. However, the number of times I've played it and back to back is still up there compared to these days, where the most recent games I've been playing back to back has been games from the Tales series.
