What games do you play a second time or more?
I rarely do this, but am giving Spec Ops the line another bash.
Good shooter with a great story, and a fantastic ending, a pretty rare thing nowadays I find.
 
Dark Souls. Played through it what must be at least 10 times. I tend to play through quite a few Final Fantasies at least once a year too and the same goes for Little Big Adventure games. Crash Bandicoot and Super Meat Boy are my go to games for whenever I want some platforming goodness and I've played through the Phoenix Wright games a couple of times too with the intention to go through them again before Ace Attorney 5 comes out.
 
Half-Life 2 I've finished a few times. Uncharted 2 on PS3 I've finished twice and was equally impressed each time as I'd forgot much of it. Below that not much. Fallout 3 I would like to but I'd never commit that many hours to something I've already finished.
 
Yeah I admire people who stick at Dark Souls,, ive attempted it so many times now, im just going to wait for the new one, I agree, its a great game though
 
I tend to replay the shorter games if I've really enjoyed them. Even if I really enjoy an RPG, it's less likely to be replayed simply because of the time required. Some games I can blast through in one sitting, particularly the ones that are designed to played at pace, e.g. Mirror's Edge. The whole game is effectively a speed run. So I've been through that multiple times.
 
Really only do this with old skool graphic adventures, favorites being the first 2 monkey island games, gabriel knight 2 and phantasmagoria!, as i know what im doing, just enjoy the story etc and can usually finish them in 1 sitting, recently done them all on my Android tab! Only other games i've finished more than once that i recall are final fantasy x, ffx-2 and crysis 1, Shenmue 1 and 2, and Resident Evil Code veronica!
 
Dark Souls is just a game that if you stick through it for the first or possibly second playthoughs you get carried away wanting to try loads of different things like challenge runs, using a different play style or just rushing through the game in NG+ with tougher enemies and your weapons and armour in tact from NG.

Speaking of Resident Evil, I've completed the first game multiple times too and I think I've done 3 twice. CV is another one I'll probably play through again some time this summer :D.
 
I can't think of many games I have completed that I haven't replayed tbh....I don't like many games, so end up replaying the same ones.

Actually, the games I haven't replayed after completing would be, off the top of my head:

Rage
Max Payne 3
Assassin's creed Revelations
Arkham Asylum
Bulletstorm
LA Noire
FEAR games

Any older games, I almost certainly replayed!
 
I havent completed many games twice, with the exception of the Mafia and Mass Effect series. I usually lose enthusiasm for playing through twice, even if it was years ago when I first played it. Short attention span I guess :D
 
Mass Effect series, Borderlands 2, MGS series.. about it really.

I don't generally do two playthroughs unless I love the story line/gameplay.
