[Rufus]

Never. I'm not counting indie bundles where I already had half the games.

[Great Rumbler]

I bought Oblivion, Dark Souls, and the Orange Box twice, once on Xbox360 and once on PC.

[archnemesis]

The exact same game or are you counting remakes?

Double dipped:
• Half-Life + Counter-Strike etc. (CD/DVD and Steam)
• The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion (PC and PS3)
• Shin Megami Tensei: Digital Devil Saga (my PS2 destroyed my first copy)
• Sierra adventure games (Original PC or Atari ST versions and Steam/GOG)

Triple dipped:
• Demon's Souls
• Several Final Fantasy games e.g. PC/PS1/PSN for FF7 and FF8
• X-Com games (Original PC versions, Steam, PS1)

[Himu]

Quite a bit.

The notables for me:

Half Life 2 - pc, xbox, xbox 360

Chrono Trigger: snes, psx, ds, ios, android

Final fantasy 1 - nes, psx, gba, psp, android

Final fantasy 2 - psx, gba, psp, android

Final Fantasy IV - snes, psx, gba

Final Fantasy V - snes, psx, gba

Final Fantasy VI - snes, psx, gba, wii vc

Resident Evil 4 - gc, wii, ps2, 360

Triple dipped:

• X-Com games (Original PC versions, Steam, PS1)

The games I listed are all originals but I guess I cheated on Serious Sam First and Second Encounter by adding the HD versions to the list, I have no issue if you want to count remakes.

[Positive Touch]

I never really do this unless the rerelease has some extra content or something.partly coz it feels like a rip off, and partly because I still own a lot of my old games, and the ones I don't are ready to emulate.

I did buy left 4 dead 2 twice tho so I could play the nice pc version myself and the 360 version with friends.

[Positive Touch]

oh and I own a shitload of different versions of resident evil 1&2

[fistfulofmetal]

Metal Gear Solid 3

Original PS2 game

PS2 re-release.

HD collection for 360

HD collection for Vita

I also bought a copy of Playstation Magazine to play the demo.

[D3RANG3D]

Oblivion. I have no idea why either

The game is busted ass but modded, it's pretty good.

Modding is a disgusting habit that I have spent way too much time on with this game.

[cool breeze]

Ocarina of Time.  N64, two version on Gamecube (both 'free'), Wii virtual console, and 3DS.

That I paid for, probably MGS2 and 3.  I gave up with the 3DS and Vita games or else it'd be more; MGS2/3+Substance/Subsistence+Essential+HD.

GTA4 is the most shame worthy.  PS3 first, sold for 360 version to play DLC, sold and then bought PC version during Steam sale for mods.

[Raban]

I've bought GTA IV four times, and one time for a system I didn't even own. Proud of every single one

[Himu]

Legend of Zelda 1 and 2: nes, gba, gc zelda disc, 3ds eshop

I really mostly only double dip on games that have re-releases.

I haven't bought MGS HD collection, but when I get the Essential collection it'll be the third time buying MGS1-3.

GTA1 and 2 - pc (TWICE), and psx.

GTA3 - ps2, xbox, pc, android

Vice City - ps2, xbox, pc, android

San Andreas - ps2, xbox, xbox 360, pc.

Gta Chinatown Wars - ds, psp, ios.

I've owned Pscyhonauts across every single platform it's available on. Bought it at launch for ps2, got it for xbox later on, then dled the 360 version on xbl, and got it on steam later on.

Games I've double dipped that are basically the same game though and not a re-release? Much smaller. Games like Skyrim (360 and pc), SSX3 (ps2 and xbox), The Warriors (ps2 and xbox) are notables.

[Bebpo]

I just bought Trails of the Sky SC for the 2nd time this morning at full $60 price :|

Been playing the series on psp, but learned you could share saves back and forth with nicer looking ps3 version so gonna give it a shot.

[Himu]

there's ps3 versions of kiseki?

[Olivia Wilde Homo]

Borderlands - 360, PS3, and PC
DiRT 2 - 360 and PC
Warriors Orochi 3 - PS3 and Wii U

[HyperZoneWasAwesome]

I'm surprised this thread isn't dominated by Capcom games, but looking at my responses, its not either.  Hmmm.

Crazy Taxi
Resident Evil 2 and 4
Metal Gear Solid 2 and 3
Hitman 2
Splinter Cell: Chaos Theory

all triple dips.

[Snake]

Quite a bit.

The notables for me:

Half Life 2 - pc, xbox, xbox 360

Chrono Trigger: snes, psx, ds, ios, android

Final fantasy 1 - nes, psx, gba, psp, android

Final fantasy 2 - psx, gba, psp, android

Final Fantasy IV - snes, psx, gba

Final Fantasy V - snes, psx, gba

Final Fantasy VI - snes, psx, gba, wii vc

Resident Evil 4 - gc, wii, ps2, 360

Subtract the android stuff and this is me.

[Stoney Mason]

I owned Peggle and Plants versus zombie on multiple platforms. I seem to remember owning Resident Evil 4 on a bunch of platforms at various times.

[Bebpo]

there's ps3 versions of kiseki?

Yeah, they released FC, SC, and The Third (basically the whole Trials in the Sky trilogy) on PS3.  They're the PC versions with trophies, the added content of the PSP versions (like voices), and widescreen graphics.  You can use one save file between the PSP and PS3 version and go back and forth.  Sounds kind of cool to me because I tend to play rpgs on the go so I prefer PSP, but if I'm just sitting around playing it I might as well play it with better graphics on big TV.

[drew]

oblivion (360, pc)

half life 2 (xbox, pc, 360 orange box)

ninja gaiden (black, og ver)

left 4 dead 2 (360, pc)

[Himu]

I forgot the ds version of FFIV, so that makes it FOUR versions and I'm definitely interested in the psp collection. Yeah, I have a problem too but not as bad as you. Final Fantasy IV iphone/android is the ds remake? Shit, looks like I'll be getting that game again. WHAT IS IT ABOUT FINAL FANTASY IV?!?!

[chronovore]

Final Fantasy Tactics: PS J, PS NA, PSP, iOS.
Psychonauts: Xbox, PS2, Steam/Mac
GTA 1 & 2: PS, PC
GTA III, Vice City, San Andreas: PS2, Xbox, iOS (except SA)
GTA Stories, SA, VC: PS2, PSP
Bully: PS2, 360, Steam
Beyond Good and Evil: PS2, 360

Hm.

[chronovore]

Oblivion. I have no idea why either

This statement goes so well with your new avatar.

[Himu]

Any big updates added to the ds remake in the phone version?

[Himu]

What do you mean by easier? Because i wouldn't mind FFIV sfc difficulty. Is the moon better balanced?

[Himu]

Sounds great. Love the ds version, but if I wanna play 3d FFIV, I don't want to have to go through the ds version again. Fun for the first time, but seems it'd be annoying on later difficulties, particularly the moon.

[Positive Touch]

I'd a while listing everything so instead I'm just going to do this:

Final Fantasy 4: SNES, SFC, SFC Easy Type, PSX, JP PSX, Wonderswan Crystal, GBA US, GBA EU, GBA JP, DS, DS JP, PSP, iPhone

God I have a problem.

now the real question is - how many of those have you finished?

[Positive Touch]

manliness for days

[Himu]

HOLY SHIT I HAVE GOT TO GET THE FINAL FANTASY IV PSP COLLECTION.

LOOK AT THE GLASS SHATTER



I really like the sprites. Why couldn't FFD and FFV ios/android get this treatment? :sadbron

[Himu]

HOLY SHIT Barbariccia's tornado form change animation

AMAZING.

Sweet merciful fuck the psp versions rendition of the boss theme.

FUCK.

Wow at the death animation. The presentation!

[Damian79]

I have bought Diablo 2 like 6 times of the same pc version.

[Human Snorenado]

Diablo 2 like three times

Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance twice

Fallout 3 (360, pc)

Dragon Age: Origins (360, pc)

Borderlands (360, pc) 

BioShock (360, pc)

Every old 8 or 16 bit game I ever owned and marginally liked: original purchase and rom

[Tasty]

Games I would shamelessly rebuy each console generation/distribution platform (and at times, have done so):

Resident Evil 4

Super Mario Galaxy 1/2

Sid Meier's Alpha Centauri + Alien Crossfire

Mega Man X

Super Mario World

Yoshi's Island

A Link to the Past

Wind Waker

Twilight Princess

The Evil Within

Any House of the Dead game or compilation

[Cerveza mas fina]

Dark Souls (PS3, PC, Switch)
Diablo 3 (PC, PS4, Switch)

[Trent Dole]

Oddly the only thing I have twice that I can recall offhand is X and x-2 on ps2 and then I have the HD remasters on PC via getting a card for there for xmas one time. I'd double on SMG if they did a collection, still never played 2, and would also be up for the 3D Zelda remasters that showed up on Wii U coming over to N's current platform.

[HardcoreRetro]

SMB3 - NES, SNES, GBA, Wii, WiiU and 3DS.
Killer7 - Gamecube, PS2 and PC.

[Svejk]

Skyrim - 3 (PS3, PC, PSVR)
Dragon's Dogma - 2 (PS3, PC)
CV: SOTN - 3 (PS1, PSP, XB360)
Dark Souls 3 - 2 (PC, PS4)

I'm sure there's more I can't think of right now.

[nachobro]

if you could all the versions of street fighter 4 as one then it's been like 10 copies across ps3/ps4/pc/xbox360

[toku]

I bought Titanfall twice, and Titanfall 2 twice...would be three times but I never owned a ps4. No regrets.

[Akala]

I don't even want to think about this, it's something obscene.

[bork]

I don't even want to think about this, it's something obscene.

Yeah. 

Just recently with Bloodstained:

Curse Of The Moon (Steam)
Curse Of The Moon (Switch)
Curse Of The Moon (Physical CE - Switch)
Curse Of The Moon (Physical Regular - PS4)
Curse Of The Moon (Physical Regular - Vita)
Curse Of The Moon (Physical Regular - Switch)

Ritual Of The Night (Steam)
Ritual Of The Night (Physical KS version - Switch)
Ritual Of The Night (Physical - PS4)
Ritual Of The Night (Physical w/ metal case - Switch)

(All of the digital versions and the physical KS Switch version are from the Kickstarter from back in 2015.)

[Don Rumata]

Double dips are too many to count, mostly because of delayed PC ports;  but the worst offender is probably Bayonetta 1: 360, WiiU, PC and will buy again on Switch when i get one.
Resident Evil 4 is another one.

Also when the remaster comes out, Final Fantasy VIII will be another big offender (Ps1, Ps3, PC, PC again).

[tiesto]

Phantasy Star 1,2,3,4 original copies
Phantasy Star 1 Mega Drive version
Phantasy Star Collection (GBA)
Phantasy Star Collection (Saturn)
Sega Ages Phantasy Star Collection (PS2)
Phantasy Star Generation 1 and 2 (PS2 remakes)
Sega Ages Phantasy Star (Switch)

Still want the JP versions of the original series.

[archnemesis]

Lately most of my duplicates come from from various PC store freebies. I'm also willing to repurchase games for Switch for convenience.
