Kane99 Posted February 26, 2021 Share Posted February 26, 2021 Have you ever had to purchase a game multiple times? As in maybe you had to buy a second copy because the first copy broke, or you lost your first copy and had to buy a replacement. Maybe you sold it, and decided to buy another copy of the game later on. I've done this a few times before. COD 4 I had to replace once, because the original disc started to crack (I played it a lot) and had to get another copy. One of my copies of splinter cell I had went bad as well and I had to get that replaced. But for the most part, I haven't had to replace many games. What about you though? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
m76 Posted February 26, 2021 Share Posted February 26, 2021 My copy of Fallout 3 was broken, so I had to go to the literal home of the local distributor to get a replacement copy. And then that one broke too. It had some messed up copy protection. The good old days of securom and safedisc. Then I purchased the goty edition. I also purchased Command and Conquer 4 times now. First the original in 1995, then as part of the first decade collection, then as the origin ultimate collection, then the remastered edition.

The Blackangel Posted February 26, 2021 Share Posted February 26, 2021 I've had over a dozen copies of FF8. Mainly because a disc would get scratched up and become unplayable, or I would lose a disc. With a game that takes 4 discs, it's not hard to do. One set wasn't my fault. Disc 4 didn't work. The systems didn't even recognize that they had a disc in them. I tried it on multiple systems, PS1-PS3 and got the same issue. I took it back, 3 times and had the same result. So that press of the game was completely fucked up. I ended up getting an original first edition of the game to play it. But when I got it on Switch, I haven't played it on PS since. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I got a couple copies of MGS1 from a trading site in the past. I got the original edition, but just the discs and I have the greatest hits edition that I think has everything. Can't believe I forgot about that one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Empire Posted February 27, 2021 Share Posted February 27, 2021 Yes, I brought GTA5 twice and in fact I have three copies. EPic, Steam and Disc. Same with Mudrunner 🙂 I brought the game twice. All in all I think I had around 4 games that I brought more then once. Did the same for GTAIV. wanted to get the episodes from liberty city and I got the bundle pack 🙂 even that I got the normal GTA game. Soon after I got the game again on steam. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
killamch89 Posted February 27, 2021 Share Posted February 27, 2021 I have at least 3 copies of Skyrim right now as I had Skyrim for Xbox One and PC. Not to mention I got the Special Edition so that's three. I'll probably get it again when I get a Nintendo Switch... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heatman Posted August 5, 2021 Share Posted August 5, 2021 There are so many games that I really enjoy playing which I purchased more than twice. I purchased Final Fantasy 7 remake three times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Demon_skeith Posted August 6, 2021 Share Posted August 6, 2021 FF 7 on PS1, discs get scratched up so badly or go missing that I had to rebuy it a few times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wow, you're really addicted or love Skyrim so much more than other games that you have played so far I guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Razor1911 Posted August 6, 2021 Share Posted August 6, 2021 I have PC as well as ps4. So no doubt I had to buy some of the games for both. I have 2 copies of FiFA2019, and GTA V. Now, I am not planning to buy games more than once anymore. 😊 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean, if you want to explore playing same game in both , you have to either use emulator (not legal) or buy two copies for each. That's why I always analyse the games, and buy only that copy which will provide better gaming experience. 😊 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
