Do we have the same definition of replayable?

I define "replay value" primarily in terms of how often I want to play through the entire game. Games like Mega Man 2, Super Mario Bros. 3, A Link to the Past, and Halo CE I've played through more times than I can possibly count. Meanwhile, I have several games in my collection I've played through maybe once and have felt little incentive to play again.

I define replayability as replaying the game after you beat it like new game plus or choosing different story arcs or even playing it like it has no ending like cod.
