GameMatris said, "Another afternoon and there isn’t much to do. Yes you can go to a near store and pick a new game but there are some free options! You can play ‘X’ again… Nah i mean it was a good game but not for playing again!
So, What makes players to play a game over and over?"
I decided to replay Uncharted 2 & 3 and savor the technical magic of Naughty Dog's flagship games, marveling at their advancement of video games as a whole.
Its the appreciation of people's work that make me go back playing their games again and again.
Being a Sega Genesis & PS One gamer I really appreciate it when people push the limits of what are known to be "inferior" machines and squeeze out potential & achieve some really good to see unexpected stuff.
Limit Breaks are what I call them.

In fact , words can't do it justice. There is just this feeling about a game that you know you loved it.
With me and those games, I don't want to ever lose that feeling by playing it too much and having it wear out it's welcome.
Games Like that I usually wait a few years to play again so that I have forgotten parts and some of it is new to me again.
I can't stand when everything is predictable.
