Ever bought a game more than once?

Simple question: Have you ever bought the same game more than once?

I have. I've owned three different copies of SSX3. I bought the game for the PS2 when it was first released, completed it, and promptly took it back to the store. Two or Three years later, I spot a pre-owned copy of it for a rather nice price, and played it to death again. When I finally got rid of my PS2 when I got my 360, I found another pre-owned copy of it (this time for the xbox) and currently replaying it, all over again.

Do I regret it? Hell to the no! It's the only EA game I haven't felt ripped off about for a long while.

I've bought a copy of SSBM about, oh, 4 separate times. Either my dogs would destroy it, or I'd loan it to someone and never get it back.

It's always been worth it, though; I love that game.

Gitaroo Man, although this is more due to Amazon tarding out than anything else. It's a long story.

Add SSBM to the list.

Shinobi. I don't know where it went, but my house ate it twice.

I had to buy KOTOR twice, cause my factory-sealed-not-a-scratch-on-it disc decided to stop working for god knows what reason. I bought a used copy that's in pretty bad shape, but I've never got around to actually putting it in the Xbox to see if it worked...

My brother and I have bought multiple copies of GoldenEye. Back in '97, our mom made us sell our copy cause the game was so violent. *eyeroll* We've bought several replacement copies in recent years, but many of them have been faulty and have just died. I think we're on cartridge four right now.

Fable.

... yeah. I don't think I need to explain my borderline stupidity in that decision.

Mirai Gen · 12-10-2006, 04:05 PM

What? You weren't the only one who bought Fable, only to later have to buy Fable: The Actual Game.

I think I bought Grim Fandango twice because I lost the first one. Though I think I've managed to loose the second one also...
