I bought Dead Space for the 360. Then I lost it but I suspect it was stolen. Bought it again. Then I got a gaming PC and said "Screw it, I'm not paying for this game a third time" and pirated it.

A few games, but Sonic the Hedgehog takes the biscuit. I've lost count of how many times I've bought Sonic's Megadrive collection.

I made the mistake of trading my copy in... then I remembered that it's the most amazing game ever and realised my mistake. It's the only RTS I've ever truly enjoyed.

I have 3 copies of Mass Effect for the 360 and 1 for the PC.
A copy of Oblivion for the 360 and PC.
3 copies of Halo (one on the PC the rest on the Xbox).
2 copies of KotOR 2.
2 copies of World in Conflict.
About 4 copies of Rome Total War (because I somehow kept losing them).

Those are the ones I can recall from the top of my mind.

I bought Sim City 4 a total of four times due to lost product keys and scratched disks, and I don't regret any of those purchases.

Except the second time, which was when I bought an entire Sim City Pack containing SC4, the expansion pack Rush Hour, SC: Societies, and some random city-themed puzzle game called Sim Carnival: Snap City. Needless to say, there were only two games worth playing in that pack.

knights of the old republic, halo 1, and dark souls. dark souls is the funny one cause i originally sold it cause it pissed me off, without eveb getting to the burg lol. my friends convinced me to repurchase which is ironic since i was the one who ended up beating it whereas they gave up

The only ones I've ever bought a second time are ones where the original discs don't work on new operating systems, or if I found a GoTY edition for cheaper than it would have cost to buy the expansion(s) I missed in the first place. System Shock 2, NWN 2, Duke Nukem 3D, the first 2 Fallouts, Kingpin, Freespace, Syndicate, Master of Magic, Arcanum...


Yes, GoG.com is very happy I have an account :).

I thought I'd lost the disc of spyro 3, so I bought a new copy. I've since found my original copy, so now I have 2 copies. But through a tragic series of events, neither copy has a manual, and I've never actually read the manual.

I lent my original copy of pokemon silver to a friend, and never saw it again. Many years later, I got a hankering to play it again, and ebay had my back. But I think the battery has died on my new copy, so now I'm waiting for a chance to get my hands on the remake.

Speaking of pokemon, I'm pretty sure I've owned 4 seperate copies of pokemon yellow over the years.

I've bought Spyro 2, Spyro: Year of the Dragon, Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories (If we're counting Re:CoM as the same game.) Sly Cooper and the Thievius Raccoonus and Sly 2 twice.

Come this fall, I'll have bought Kingdom Hearts and 358/2 Days twice, and Chain of Memories a third time.

Ah, the PS2 version looks a fair bit worse than the GC version but otherwise is a better game (better controller imo, the GC controller is comfy but has too few buttons, a problem made clear by Twin Snakes), the Wii version is magnificent and shows how motion control SHOULD be used.

YUP.

I bought Fallout: New Vegas twice simply because of Steam sales and mods and stuff. I also bought the Orange Box for 360 way back before I had Xbox Live so I couldn't play TF2 so I went out and bought a hard copy for $20. Also I bought Resident Evil 4 twice because it's simply a good game to have in my collection.

All three Mass Effect games, for the PS3 and 360. Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 and Black Ops, for PS3 and 360.

The Mass Effect games because I love them (minus that joke of an ending) and I got 100% on both versions. The Call of Duty games because Target was having a sale: Buy Black Ops, get MW2 for free. DONE.
