CNN: Only 10% Of Gamers Finish Their Games

[Jdevil3]

I guess I'm in that 10% of gamers :P

I finish all my games... MULTIPLE TIMES!. I think the game I cleared most times this gen is Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of The Patriots, which I cleared 14 times to get all 40 emblems.

There were other games in previous gens that I cleared more than 20 times though. I always do that kind of stuff to unlock everything there's to unlock... Games like Parasite Eve 2 had a lot of stuff to unlock, and other games like Devil May Cry 3 not only had a lot of stuff to unlock but they also were so fun and hard to master that I just couldn't stop playing and replaying and replaying :P.

I think the only game this gen that I only cleared once was Final Fantasy XIII, but I usually don't replay FF games more than once. The only exceptions are Final Fantasy VI (only twice), Final Fantasy VIII (like 4 times), Final Fantasy XII (1st time playing normally, 2nd time doing a no level up challenge) and Dirge of Cerberus (like 5 or more times, it's a short game and has some stuff to unlock :P)

I believe the people who don't complete their games is because they get new games and leave whatever they were playing to play their new game, they don't really like what they bought and can't get themselves to finish it, they don't feel any sense of accomplishment or pride by clearing their games/unlocking everything/clearing in hardest difficulty/doing challenges/Mastering the game/etc... or maybe they just don't have the time to complete them... or maybe they're one of those people that only buy games to play the multiplayer mode.
