Forums - Gaming - Top 10 most replayable games.

Dejackso on 16 October 2007

I'm new here, so this may have been done before.  I'm curious to see other opinions of the top 10 best games as judged by amount of time spent in a game.  In an attempt to make it fair for short games...I'd like to see lists made by number of times playing (or planning to play) through a game instead of amount of time.  However, feel free to ignore that and just make a list of games that you like and reasons for that if you feel like it.

 

Here's my list (in order)

1.  Starcraft - PC

2.  Tetris - Everything ever

3.  Silent Hill 2 - PS2(and Xbox, I think)

4.  Resident Evil 4 (GC/Wii)

5.  Madden 20xx (PS2/Xbox/360)

6.  Final Fantasy VI - SNES/GBA

7.  Metal Gear Solid 3 - PS2

8.  Catan - 360 Live Arcade

9.  Ms. Pacman - Everything ever

10.  Bioshock - 360 (I just love this game)

It just worked out that way. A hundred different and plausible scenarios for human history would have yielded other results (and moral dilemmas of enormous magnitude). They didn't happen." - Stephen Jay Gould

1 Tetris (my most played GB game and the only one I own on my cell)
2 Wii Sports (best party game ever and golf is fun by myself)
3 Civilization 2 Gold (I'll still play this in 10 years. The later ones got too complicated for me.)
4 Age of Empire 2 (A of E III is too complicated for me.)
5 Age of Mythology
6 Wii Play (Maybe Wii Fit or Music will replace this. I cannot get enough of tanks, though, and I some of the other ones.)
7 Final Fantasy 6 (I played this game over 100 hours the 2nd time I beat it, maxing out points on several characters)
I could imagine other people would list games like
Halo 3, Mario Kart, Smash Bros, Starcraft, newest Madden or NBA Live, and World of Warcraft



currently playing: Desktop Tower Defense (PC), Puzzle Quest (DS), Trauma Center New Blood (Wii), Guitar Hero III (Wii), Ghost Squad (Wii), Actraiser (SNES), Donkey Kong County (SNES), The Legend of Zelda (NES), Kirby's Adventure (NES)

will play next: Paper Mario (N64), Golden Axe II (Sega), NiGHTS (Wii)

I've never played a metroid game after I beat it the first time.  The endings aren't that different.  Also, I despise speed-runs (especially the speed-run in FFIX to get that stupid sword) as I lose enjoyment playing a game for speed.  That's why I didn't add them in...

No particular order:

  • Super Metroid
  • Metroid Fusion
  • Metroid Zero Mission
  • Metroid Prime 2 Echoes
  • Super Mario Kart
  • Mario Kart Double Dash!!
  • F-Zero
  • F-Zero X
  • Wave Race Blue Storm
  • Resident Evil (GC)
Ran out of space, I hate such lists, I have to leave out too many games. Now the list looks like I only play a few game series... 

Heh.  It also makes you look like a Nintendo-homer...not that there's anything wrong with that. 

I agree that you are forced to leave out games in these lists, but i think the constraints also force you to really consider your choices and probably make a more accurate list.
