Books, video games, Web sites, movies, TV shows. Whatever.

I often do, although not as much as I used to. I've played some classics like SMB1 and Zelda 1 numerous times, although I often try to tell myself to discover something new.

My mom, on the other hand, seems rather intent in experiencing things exactly once total. She buys those Harlequin romance novels by the fuckload and gives them away or sells them soon afterward. There are just a few games she'll play a lot, and those are games that change at random each time, like Tetris, Civilization, or computerized card games.

Supakitsune's post
I most certainly do!
Right now, I'm replaying The World Ends With You.
Also, with stuff like Pokemon, you could say playing the original (e.g. D/P) then the somewhat enhanced rerelease (e.g. Plat) is like playing it twice.
So, I'm also replaying Pokemon Mystery Dungeon Explorers of Darkness... as Explorers of Sky

I also like to replay the Ace Attorney games. I'll probably give them another replay before Ace Attorney Investigations: Miles Edgeworth hits.

Wonder if Majora's Mask was this bad with storyline...


As for repeating things, when it comes to watching / listening to things over and again, sometimes someone will put a YouTube video of something that I can just keep clicking on Replay all day for...I did that a full week for something once, I think. Is that a bad thing? I think not.
(Will call back once anything else gets remembered in the Play category)

It kinda removes 80% story making you not understand shit instead.

OH GOD WHAT THE FUCK ARE THESE GIANT RED HALF NAKED THINGS!?!!!

On the flop side, it's still as much text, just more spread out. :|

I do play things over again a few times.

Case in point? Pretty much the whole Turrican series, and a few of the Zelda series as well. Not to mention some ZC quests...

As for watching... sometimes. Honestly depends.

I would like to do this although every time I finish doing something it seems like there is still always something else for me to do. There are a ton of older video games that I would love to go back and beat again but the problem is that I'm too busy playing newer ones at the moment .

I like to do this with some games, such as Final Fantasy VII, Pokémon games, and Mario and Sonic games

I also watch some TV series, like the Simpsons, Futurama, or some anime series (such as Chobits or Cardcaptor Sakura), multiple times...

Hell yes. If I like something, odds are I'm going to reread, rewatch, or replay it. In fact, Redwall is one of the few books I've ever bothered to reread since I loved it so much. And I'm not one who likes reading.

Yes, I have The Simpsons, Futurama and Family Guy on DVD and I've watched all three series entirely quite a few times.

I do the same for movies and games but much less often for books.

Every video game I have ever played was played multiple times. Books and movies / tv, a large amount of them. I've played SM64 so many times I could finish it 100% in a hour and a half with no codes / glitches.

I find it hard to get enjoyment out of something after I've watched/played/read through something once. I don't think I've ever rewatched an anime or a movie. If I do revisit something, it's always several years later, when I've lost most of my memory of whatever it is I'm revisiting.

If a song's stuck in my head, I may listen to it multiple times. Same if it's a new song I really like.

I'm tempted to play SMB1 now, thanks guys.

If I like something I'll replay it when the mood strikes. I've re-read a lot of my books so much that they're getting rather daggy.

And don't talk to me about replaying Metroid/Deus Ex/Advance Wars games :p

I'm the same way. If I'm really into a song, I'll play it over and over again.

I tend to read books, play video games, listen to some of my favorite types of music, etc. many times.
I find it difficult not to do so.
