This. A lot.mykalwane said:Depends on what you mean. Since there are some games I have tried over a 100 to beat them and still haven't beaten them. So the having to restart the whole game when you can't save is the main reason to this. The first Sonic game is a good example of this along with Dr.Mario. Even still, there are very few games I want to replay the whole game over rather then just a couple of levels. For example on Brutal Legend I have beaten it on all difficulties 10 times, so I have beaten the game 30 times already. Yes I know the game has a lot of flaws, but it is so much fun and enjoyable that I want to keep diving into it. I know I will keep diving into it, because it is a world I love and enjoy.
I've played and beaten Resident Evil 4 probably 6-10 times and spent a hell of a lot more time playing Mercenaries mode.
I've played the old Sonic games probably 100+ times and haven't beaten them all that often. I beat Sonic and Knuckles less than 10 times for each character, never got all the Emeralds, and didn't have it plugged in with Sonic 3.
I've played Spelunky 500+ times and beat it once.
