Crisis Core: Final Fantasy VII
I try very hard not to be a Square Enix fanboy, but the storytelling alone in this one deserves some kind of award.
Infamous
Only because I was forced to do this during my "Trophy Hunter" phase. I ended up giving up halway though my third playthrough. I found it really hard to enjoy this game. I'm glad I only borrowed it. If I got this for free during the PSN meltdown, I would have felt cheated. I'm glad I picked up WipEout HD instead.
Metal Gear Solid 1, 2, 3, 4, Portable Ops and Peace Walker
It's no secret that I'm a huge MGS fanboy. I still replay these. Yes, even MGS2.
Dead Space
One of the few "Trophy Run" games that I actually enjoyed running multiple playthroughs of. When my first PS3 crashed (water damage) I was halfway through my first trophy run. I was not upset that I had to start this one over.
Portal
Screw looking up the new ending on YouTube, this game deserved another playthrough for it.
Half-Life
I'm trying to do a Half-Life marathon now that I own every game in the series except for ]Decay [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Half-Life:_Decay]. Personal reasons haven't allowed me to finish this feat, but have allowed me to play through this one over and over again. Mostly because the story is completely forgettable. I have high hopes for Half-Life 2, but I need to play Blue Shift and Opposing Force.
Fallout 3
I have wasted months on this game, and I regret nothing.
Folklore
Probably one of the most underrated PS3 exclusives next to Valkyria Chronicles.
Batman: Arkham Asylum
I am the Batman.
Modern Warfare 2
This game disappointed the shit out of me, but it made for some fun times with my friends, so I suppose it was worth retail price for me. Not really into online multiplayer, though. Not nearly as good as...
Call of Duty: World at War
I was so sick and fucking tired of WWII shooters by the time this game into my life. This game proved that it could squeeze a final good nugget out of the setting. This game was delicious.
Resident Evil 1, 2, 3 and 4
It took me years to warm up to 4, but I ended up replaying this one almost as much as the first three. It'll probably take me forever to warm up to RE5, though. I've done so many ridiculous playthroughs of the first three that it scares me how much time I've spent on these (pistol-only runs, no healing runs, alternate endings, etc). RE4 has been replayed more so on the PC port due to a surprising amount of mod support.
Assassin's Creed 1, 2 and Brotherhood
I've played the first two more times to count. I didn't get to replay Brotherhood as much due to my friend borrowing this and taking half a fucking year to play it, and even longer to finish AC2.
Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas
This one took me about 2-3 months on my first playthrough. Second one took me a couple of weeks. Since then I've made this game my *****.
Prince of Persia (2008)
Fucking fanboys ruined this one. They whined and bitched and complained so hard that they killed this one and gave us another fucking installment of the overrated Sands of Time series. This game is horribly underrated and absolutely gorgeous to look at.
Wanted: Weapons of Fate
I don't know what it is about this game that compelled me to replay it so much (other than my "Trophy Hunter" phase). I think at the time my PS3 collection consisted of mostly First-Person Shooters, so it was refreshing to see something different come along. It's really only half-decent, but the bullet-bending mechanic is really fun.
God of War 3
I've played the first two many times, but this one has been replayed so much that I think I'm wearing out the disk.
Dante's Inferno
See GoW3
Star Wars: Jedi Knight - Jedi Academy
This is pretty much the Star Wars game you are looking for. Just turn on the "realistic combat" cheat and you're good to go.
Alien Trilogy
I loved the shit out of this game until it was stolen out of my garage when I was younger. I've had it emulated since then, but I wouldn't mind seeing it show up on the PSN Store. This is another one I've done crazy runs with (again, pistols only; I made the alien queen my *****).
Curse of Monkey Island
This is, was, and always will be my favorite of the series. I own and enjoyed the entire series, including Tales of Monkey Island, but this one is superior to all.

Curse of Monkey Island
This is, was, and always will be my favorite of the series. I own and enjoyed the entire series, including Tales of Monkey Island, but this one is superior to all.
There are a few exceptions, but pretty much all of these were replayed immediately.
I'm a bit late to the game, but I'm currently involved in my very first playthrough of The Longest Journey. I'm only a few chapters in, but so far I do believe I will immediately play it again as soon as it's over. I'm actually rather disappointed in myself for not picking this one up earlier.
