Has anyone ever purchased the same game twice?

MY Xbox 360 just red ringed on me. And while I figure out how to send it in or whatever. I purchased Call of Duty 4 again on the PS3. Just because I want to keep playing the multiplayer. I was wondering if anyone out there had ever made full price for a game you already own just onb a new system for whatever reason?

I'm really bad at buying and selling games, and then buying them again.

i bought tekken 4 3 times, mortal kombat 1 twice, tekken 3 2 or 3 times, super mario 64 (once on N64, and again on the virtual console, and the DS remake), GTA III twice, GTA VC twice, mortal kombat 3 twice and that's about it.

It doesn't happen too often, but I've been guilty of it when it comes to RPGs. When I'm playing a really long RPG and finally finish it, my gut reaction is "I'll never play it again. I don't want to reinvest that much time in that game again." And that's even if I enjoy it. But eventually after a year goes by I start thinking about how much I enjoyed it and wind up buying it again.

The one time it worked out for me was with Dragon Quest VIII. I bought it the day it came out for $50, and played it like I hadn't played a videogame in years. Just non-stop. Two and a half weeks later I finished it (with both endings) and decided I couldn't sink that much time in it again. I sold it for $30 at Gamestop since it was still very new. Then a year later, bought it again, but for only $20. So the way I look at it, I came out $10 ahead, and still have a great game.

Yeah Resident Evil 4darksword1123

I know that some people in the Candid Collectors' Union have bought the same game more than once because they forgot that they already own the game.

That hasn't happened to me yet.

Holy cow! :o

I repurchased some of the GTA games and a lot of C&C games via compilations, though that's not really the same thing.

I have purchased some games, sold them, and then repurchased them at a lower price (PGR3 and Sands of Time I made a bit of money by doing that, since I got them for $6 the second time). I also own Doom 3 for Xbox and PC, even though the PC version was with the ID pack.

I have two copies each of FFVII and FFVIII (PSOne and PC).

The only game I have two physically identical copies of is Amplitude (one sealed). The second was cheap and at the time I wanted to support Harmonix as well as provide a copy for someone unfortunate enough to have never played it.

I've bought Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas aboutfour times, mainly because I broke the otherthree discs :P. I have also bought Resident Evil three times, if remakes count and what not.

Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas for PS2 and then PC.

Grand Theft Auto: Liberty City Stories for PSP and then PS2.

and I'll be buying Bully again for 360.

The Warriors: 2, GTA III: 3, Vice City: 3

And numerous others twice, because usually I trade in games for new games or systems. I am now holding onto my games unless I hate what I buy.

yes resident evil 4 twice

and medievil 2 times cause my old disk was beyond repair

I`m really bad for things like this. I recently bought Mega Man X Collection for the PS2 and I have Mega Man X on the PSP and I have Mega Man X 1 & 2 on the SNES.

Also have Street Fighter Alpha 2 on the PS1 and I now have it on the Street Fighter Alpha Collection. I bought both of the Capcom Collections on the PS2 and the PSP. Bought Mario 2, 3, World for the GBA and I have them on the SNES. Same thing with Zelda. Own the GBA Zelda ALTTP and the SNES version. Have Zelda OOT on the N64 and the Zelda Collection on the GC.

Bought Soul Calibur 2 for the PS2, Xbox and GC. Have Sonic 1,2,3 on the Sonic Collection on the GC and I now have Sonic on the Sega Genesis Collection. Have Yoshi`s Island on the GBA & the SNES. I also have multi versions of the Namco Collections on the PS1, PSP, GBA and GC.

[QUOTE="darksword1123"]Yeah Resident Evil 4rragnaar

[raises hand] yep... me too... I have three versions RE4 also... I also have Oblivion for both 360 and PS3, Manhunt2 for both PS2 and Wii, CoD3 for both 360 and PS3...

EDIT: oh yeah, San Andreas for PS2 and xbox... this is embarrassing...

I bought Doom 3 times. The PC, Snes & the PS1

I bought Street Fighter Alpha 3 twice. The PS1 & the Dreamcast

I bought Vice City & GTA3twice. PC & PS2

Various copies of Street Fightergames that span the Snes, PS1, Saturn, & PS2

Not full price, but I did buy back Prince of Persia: Sands of Time after I'd played it through and sold it back.

I did buy Legacy of Kain: Defiance for the PS2 recently in the clearance bin. I own the XBox version, but it wasn't backward compatible and I wanted to be able to play the LoK series through again.

well i bought a copy of RE4 for the gamecube used and eventually realize the second disc didnt work so i had to get another copy. i own a copy of fable, and a copy of fable lost chapters. i also have oblivion and oblivion game of the year edition. then i have half life 2 and the orange box if that counts.

I'm the same. I bought the first call of duty and then traded it in only to buy it again a year later. same with prince of persia.
