I feel like this thread has been done, but I can't find it. I want to discuss games that are so good you have beat then a ton.

I bring this up because I have been playing through Psychonauts lately. It's one of my favorite games ever, and I have beat it 1-3 times every year since it came out. It never gets old to me. The writing is hilarious, the story is great, characters are awesome and the game play is loads of fun.

And you?

Baldur's Gate I and II. So many times, with so many characters.

A couple I can think of off hand would include Star Wars (NES), Battletoads (NES), the King's Quest/Space Quest games (PC), Ninja Gaiden (NES), Defender of the Crown (Amiga). I'll try to think of some more and add them.

Paper Mario, I've beaten that game a whole lot. I beat Call of Duty 2 and 3 a bunch of times. Super Mario 64 I've beaten alot of times too.

The Splinter Cell series. Every time a new sequel comes out I always have to go replay the whole series again before playing the new one.

Super Mario Bros. by a landslide for me, I wouldn't be surprised if I've beaten it 100 times.

That's a good one for sure. I never get tired of SMB or SMB 3. SMB 2 gets old to me though. Not the Japanese (true) version, but the NTSC one does.

I never beat SMB 1.

I've gotten close on SMB1 but never done it. I've beaten SMB2 in less than an hour, and SMB3 i've beaten alot

I like SMB a lot. I love all the little precarious jumps near the end.

I never was a big Mario fan.

I bet you were more of a Sonic fan Tails. Don't ask me how I know. I'm just good like that.

Off the top of my head, in no particular order I would say
Out of this world
Immortal
Shining Force 1
Buck Rodgers Countdown to Doomsday
Wonder Boy in Monsterland
Ghostbusters
Street Fighter
Mortal Kombat
The SMS maze game.
If you count them then, Chess, Reversi, Chinese Checkers and other similar board game conversions and some sports games like Madden and Tecmo Bowl.

There are several other games that I probably owned and beat several times but were not good enough to stand out in my mind. That's how Ghostbusters got on the list, I just happened to remember it for some reason.

I think Ghost House and Kid Chameleon were the only games I owned and never could beat. I tried a lot too.

I've never even tried to beat a Mario or Sonic game.

Kong, that reminds me... Flashback: The Quest for Identity is another one I played over and over on Sega CD. I loved the music and the game.

Aw yeah. Flashback, one of my personal all time favs.

I forgot to mention Tecmo Superbowl for Genesis ( i can't pass worth a darn,but my rushing game is killer), and Sonic the Hedgehog 1 through Sonic and Knuckles

Fallout 1&2
Aerobiz series
A few of the Romance of the Three Kingdoms games
Civ games

There aren't too many I've beaten countless times. I'd usually rent a game for the weekend, beat it then never rent it again. Most games don't interest me enough to play through them more than a few times, and usually not more than one time.

FFVI, Secret of Mana, Crystalis, A Link to the Past, Metroid, Castlevania II.

E.T. is so short it's hardly worth mentioning.

E.T. is so short it's hardly worth mentioning.

It's still fun, though. Also, it is one of the few Atari games to have an actual ending.

I beat every mode on Brawl countless times, including Subspace Emissary.

I use to play the heck out of Xenogears. I beat it countless times just so I could listen to the end theme song. One of my favorites.

I like to play the broken sword series over again, though not too soon after.

As a kid I completed Sonic 2 at least once a day, I never seemed to get bored with it.
I completed Super Mario world a good few times.

Also Castle of illusion, World of illusion, streets of rage, and a few others that hasnt come to mind.
