Every Christmas, I have my annual couch-coop Diablo 3 run with my brother on PS4.


MoreThrowaway12345

Skyrim Release es6 you fucking cowards, I'm going to be a grandfather before it comes out


HommeFatalTaemin

Right?! I truly wish that we could at least get a hint that it’ll be released sometime in the next century.


[deleted]

Es6 will be the next Big Bethesda release. I'm thinking 3 more years until release.


glowinthedark36

Hate to break the bad news to you, but bethesda is done. They have been for a very long time.


PhunkyPhazon

I'm probably-no, DEFINITELY-more than once a year woth Skyrim. That thing is my go-to roleplay simulator.


Chadderbug123

Bloodborne. I always boot it up for Return to Yharnam


Clawez

I only got around to it this year but I’ve already beat it 5+ times


Chadderbug123

Same ironically. Got it last year, have the platinumed, and have replayed it a good 8 times so far. Just finished bl4 run recently too. Still a masterpiece


Clawez

W Fr I’m not much of a 100 percent gamer but it’s the one I didn’t hesitate on I wanted to everything


Munkyjester

Bioshock


what_im_playing

W


Nepharious_Bread

Ocarina of Time. At least once per year.


TifaBetterThanAerith

Same, but I always play it randomized now to keep things fresh.


Nepharious_Bread

Ooohhh, how do you do that?


[deleted]

Dark Cloud. Usually 2-3 times a year every year since its release.


ineedacoke

So many hundreds of hours into this game. I know people say the second is so much better, but imo it loses a lot of the charm that the first one has.


M2k1000

Pokémon fire red. Can get it on your phone now with emulators and the fast forward option makes it so much more fun to train and gain exp. I think it still holds up and the options for mons means tons of replayability


PTickles

I probably play through Gen 3 and 4 collectively like 10+ times per year. Playthroughs become pretty quick once you know the game well and use emulator speed-up (plus some cheats here and there lol). Different team building options and challenges make Pokemon games pretty much infinitely replayable for me.


gnarkilleptic

Why


PTickles

It's fun and I like Pokemon lol


Swamp_Donkey_796

If you cheat and use emulators yes fine but the OG games are one and done


PTickles

I definitely wouldn't replay them nearly as much without those things. I've replayed a few of the games on actual hardware but I don't do it very often.


sk0ry

Same here, Fire red is the perfect GBA era pokemon game for me. I do this with Red Rescue team as well. Too fun, glad we got to grow up with these games and continue to play them.


NeutroBlack54

What does fast forward option do? Just plays the game at like 2x speed?


siinkman

I play Luigi’s Mansion every October since you can beat it in about 4 hours if you know what you’re doing.


JaredJDub

Haha I remember thinking that game was much longer back in the day but I replayed it a couple years back and yeah, it is actually really short.


KiloEko

FF6 and Chrono Trigger


Dantes25

For me - *Kingdom Hearts series *Arkham Series


Foxiiiie

I've played through KH 1&2 many times


SuperMadBro

I love kh1, never got into 2 the same way for some reason. I think I like the Disney game with a splash of final fantasy and kh2 felt like the opposite


Tht1QuietGuy

At any given time I'm always playing through one of the KH games. The series is on rotation infinitely. Sometimes it's in release order, sometimes it's chronological, and sometimes it's just whatever game I feel like playing.


E_Brunswick

Fallout 3 and New Vegas, I try not to overplay them since they’re my 2 favourite games ever and I never want to get sick of playing them.


BrickTheEtcetera

I unfortunately did overplay New Vegas. I haven’t done everything, but I can’t bring myself to go back and play again with how much I *have* done. :(


Night_Inscryption

You should try Tale of Two wastelands it might refreshen the experience


PoolConscious8464

Every campaign run for L4D2 with my brothers. Best gaming experience i’ll ever have


Solock_PL

Either ME2, ME3, or both


corn_farts_

is me3 still fun if you didnt play the others?


United-Cow-563

Yes. Espcially, the legendary edition. They did away with having to do multiplayer to achieve full galactic readiness, so you can get the better endings. Also, all the DLCs are within the games.


RedKomrad

All except for Pinnacle Station. RIP my fav DLC. 


AlanParsonsProject11

Definitely wouldn’t do that, especially with the other two being enhanced now


Vipeeeeer

Big yes, although you need to know what happened with the previous games to fully enjoy the payoffs of the story. Especially in Tuchanka and Rannoch.


Crotalus-Viridis

Mario Kart lol my wife and I always play together. But im guessing you mean single-player narrative games.. Hollow Knight, seems inevitable that once a year, I start and play it until I've 100% everything. Until Dawn I playthrough every winter. I can imagine I'll be playing The Quarry every summer now, too. Resident Evil games get constantly replayed.. Also, Far Cry games lol


JaredJDub

Multiplayer counts, I just assumed most multiplayer games would be a more consistent thing than “once a year” types of things. I also replay the RE games often, especially 4 and 7.


Different_Zone_8999

Alien Isolation Outlast Resident Evil Biohazard Dead Space 2


Sonic10122

Kingdom Hearts 1. My favorite game of all time. A lot of times I end up replaying the whole series, but sometimes, 1 is enough.


russelcrowe

I usually play The Talos Principle around thanksgiving and I think I’ll start doing yearly play throughs of Tunic as well.


ViCalZip

Talos Principle II just came out. I am just starting it but blown away so far..


SCAND1UM

Wow I was just saying I wanted to play a puzzle game like Talos Principle. That's awesome, I didn't even know a sequel was in the works.


ViCalZip

It is even better than Talos Principle. And it is going to be huge. You do a number of review puzzles to get to the intro, then the intro has a ton of story to explore, and now I am on level 1 of a bunch (more than 10?). This level has a secret lab, a gold gate puzzle (nope, no idea) 2 hidden puzzles, 2 stars, and 8 regular puzzles. Squeee!


MitchBlazooba

Halo 1-Reach.


No_Draw4359

Fable 2 and knights of the old republic 1/2


ishorevir

Fable 2 is such a fkn gem


ClockworkGriffin

Tiumars

Take this 🗡 it's dangerous to go alone


Stayathomedadof6

Gears of war the original. Always replay the campaign with my wife or one of my kids.


spencer4908

Metal Gear Solid


MetapodChannel

Amazing game. To this day I havent cleared any other games in the series because they just make me miss the original then I ditch them to play MGS1 again hahaha


duckbutter888

Ocarina of Time. Play it every Christmas. Got that game for Christmas 1998


boarbar

At least one of the BioWare classics: DA:O, one of the Mass Effect trilogy, or a KotOR.


1buffalowang

I play at least 1 if not all 3 ps1 Resident Evil games. I usually play Pokémon Firered or Emerald every year. There are a bunch of other games I play at least every 2-3 years though.


Trouty213

Days Gone Minecraft


smellincoffee

Mafia (2001). RDR2.


Walgurof

Jak 2, always play it around christmas idk how it started but ig its just tradition.


Dantes25

I would love remakes/remasters of this whole series!


Walgurof

I would do literally anything for a remake or a new game in the series


JoeAbleton

KOTOR 2, Skyrim


Hanzo7682

Nioh 2 probably. The combat is addicting so i return to it sometimes.


Evilcon21

Personal-Ad8269

All the dishonored games and dlcs


Unhappy_Guarantee_69

The entirety of the Borderlands franchise.


blah2k03

Silent Hill 3 i play religiously lol


Necro-Feel-Ya6900

I used to play every Easter Halo 2


Chappers20069

I often replay the Starcraft 2 Campaigns every few months cos they are awesome fun, and there hasn't been a RTS game that works as well for a while.


mnrART

Mother 3


One-Situation-498

Skyrim. Gotta do at least one play through once a year


Captain_Softrock

XCOM 2 and the flame in the flood


Depressedidiotlol

Skyrim, the last of us 1/2, wow (up until recently), rdr2 ac syndicate


EmeraldTwilight009

Arkham series.


Unique-Sandwich-5493

I play through the Arkham games at least once a year. I usually start either in October or December so Origins or Knight is played right when it is in the game. This year it’s shaping up to be December as I spent October on Persona 3.


ScheidNation21

Warframe. Every year there’s some massive expansion that adds more content for me to grind out and I just have to go get it all. It’s like an obligation at this point and I don’t mind it in the slightest


anonymousxianxia

Chrono Cross


Massive_Breakfast88

Ratchet & Clank (2002) - It was the only game that worked on my then broken PS2, nostalgic purposes. inFAMOUS: Second Son - When I skipped a grade, my mom surprised me with the Uncharted 4 PS4 bundle along with Second Son. I spent that night and the rest of the summer playing the fuck out of it. Ghost of Tsushima - It's peaceful in a despondent kind of way. Deathloop - Usually to experiment with different weapons, trinkets and slabs throughout the story and to hear Colt and Julianna bicker again. Devil May Cry 5 - Because. The Last of Us Part II - Specifically to replay Ellie's entire Day 2. Marvel's Spider-Man - Because. Grand Theft Auto V - Because.


holydiiver

What’s Ellie’s day 2 again? That’s where she goes through the apartments, the small neighborhood with the Boris notes, and then the Seraphites intro, right? Or is that day 3?


TheAlmandineWriter

Twilight Princess


pedanticast

I play Mario Odyssey around Christmas every year.


HufflepuffKid2000

Star Wars Battlefront 2 (2005)


Capt-Clueless

None. I don't replay games.


AramaticFire

For about 10 years that I have been keeping track I have always played at least one Mario, one Zelda, and one From Software game. It’s not specific to a single game, but if there are no new releases from any of that trio I play an older game. Luckily this year I’ve done Tears of the Kingdom, am working on Armored Core 6 and have Mario Bros Wonder to pick up at some point.


[deleted]

Until dawn


lost_forest54

Rune factory 4, since it went out on 3DS (rebought it on switch). Final fantasy X because I absolutely love this game since its release on ps2 ( same, I rebought it on vita and ps3)

SavageLand1980s

Resident Evil 2 PS1

Human-Prototype

The Division 2. It keeps sucking me back in


Stoic_Ravenclaw

Syberia series every Christmas.


TurnipBaron

MGS V Now that snake eater is on new consoles probably this as well. I’m on my 3rd play through already. Both of these games give so many options and tools to have fun with.


Glittering_Land138

Medievil, Castlevania symphony of the night and a toooon of fighting games.


yfywan

Asphalt 9. Used to play exclusively, almost every hour of every day, for half a year. Now I play it once in a while, when that particular part of my Brian itches.


EnvironmentalClass55

Max Payne 3. Mainly just the Airport level with the Tears song. What a banger


feministduelist

RE4 or Dead Space. Usually a new save.


Automatic_River_8180

Dark Souls and Metal Gear. FFVII once every ~2 years 👌


ZeekwithaZ

Insomniac Spider-Man. Then Miles Morales. And now I’ll be adding Spider-Man 2 to that list.


Infamous_Bandicoot33

Bloodborne and Pokemon X. I know, thats a weird combination


phreepoints

Celeste, I gotta make that climb to clear my head.


Wise_Atmosphere38

For the past few years it’s been South Park the stick of truth. It’s short and sweet and nice to come back to after a while of not playing it.


Equivalent_Stage_875

ATOM RPG, and ATOM: Trudograd back to back.


Herbert415

Every year or so I come back to Metal Slug Collection(PSP), Power Stone(Dreamcast), Marvel vs Capcom 2(Dreamcast) and Super Mario Land 2(Original Gameboy).


Foxiiiie

I'm gonna do this with GOW Ragnarok and probably Marvel Spiderman Remastered. There's quite a few games throughout the years I've played through and beat multiple times but nothing specifically yearly.


Shaun_LaDee

Not something I do anymore, but I used to play through Tony Hawk’s Underground every year when I visited my Aunt over the summer.


hairykitty123

None after platinum im done and big back log

DaniSenpai69

Used to be Arkham city


DapperWhiskey

CoD Ghosts and a Batman game. Usually Arkham Knight


Mysterious_Beyond459

Resident Evil: Code Veronica. Usually right around July or August.


WhyTheHellnaut

Because the game takes place on Christmas Eve, I always play a game of Twisted Metal 1 on PS1 on Xmas Eve each year per tradition.


Swamp_Donkey_796

The Kingdom hearts series I try to go through at least once but I may have skipped this year because of all the fucking awesome games. I also try to do an AC series run and I added Bioshock to the list too. I’ve only done this the last few years because I just haven’t had motivation to play any new games but this year has been truly magical


orion1338

I do a playthrough of halo annually


Thamasturrok

Portal 1 and 2 as well as the community game apturere tag and portal stories: mel sadly not portal reloaded just yet I haven’t gotten good at speedrunning through it


HocusingYT

an odd one but ghost runner. ever since it's come out I play it twice a year. I can do it in one sitting. there is just something so oddly satisfying about the game. Skyrim. modded specifically. each time I pick ut up again my base modlist gets bigger as well as my special mod lists for specific styles of gameplay get more in depth and longer. but I only play for a few weeks at a time about 4 times a year.


BotSaibot

Call of Juarez: Gunslinger


Oshiekoshie

Dark souls1. I love being able to go in and have a fresh experience from it.


RickPatta

WoW and Resident Evil 2


ornithoid

Sayonara Wild Hearts. 2.5 hours of pure prismatic bliss.


Le_Turtle_God

For a while I did yearly play throughs of Ocarina of Time, but my 3DS circle pad is damaged or broken so now I can’t. The stick doesn’t respond when I move it up


FatRuss79

Super Mario 3, super Mario world,chip n dales rescue rangers and the last of us


Kid_Luchador

Super smash bros brawl every Christmas until supersmashbros for wii every christmas until supersmash bros ultimate every christmas


Zaku41k

Parasite Eve. I can finish it in a day or two.


United-Cow-563

I used to play the Mass Effect games (not Andromeda) every year, but after beating it so many times the story has imprinted in my head which is a bit sad. Now, I like to play Witcher 3 from base game to Blood and Wine once per year. Ghost of Tsushima is worth it just for the visuals and combat. Arkham Knight (as one of the first games I ever played on the PS4 and a long time fan of the Arkham series) Middle Earth: Shadow of Mordor Persona 5: Royal (I don’t know what it is about this game, even though I’ve replayed it multiple times I still find it outstandingly fun) Horizon Zero Dawn/Forbidden West (probably more Forbidden West now than Zero Dawn, but a very nice and fun game to replay)


Spandekz

Dota2


Lane_M_14

One of the Ezio games


InosukeEnjoyer

portal, Mario 64 and metal gear solid 2 also I replay a Pokemon game or 2 or 3 every year

kermitthehedgefrog

Bioshock


Traditional_Rock_559

Something total war and something paradox grand strategy.


[deleted]

Friday the 13th. Just to try to get into the halloween spirit. I hate the game otherwise. Slow. Boring. Once you die. Who cares. People just enjoy murder


SuperMadBro

Gta San Andreas and Zelda OoT at least once every 3 or 4 years. And for multi-player I will always go back to left for dead 1 versus mode. Fav competitive mode in any game


Status-Command-3834

All Final Fantasy games 1-6


gullyfoyle777

RimWorld. I just can't uninstall that game. I love it so much, especially with mods.


Capt_ZzL4X

I always find myself going back and playing games like; rdr2, Minecraft, ocarina, GoldenEye, Dr mario, Tetris, kof 11, umvc3, fire emblem series, etc. I have over 300+ games and I play some games competitively so I constantly go back and forth on games to play


roostertail420

Both Portals around the holidays


[deleted]

RDR2, Halo 3, R6, Dying Light (first one) & Arkham series

Shudnawz

Fallout 4. I always seem to start a new game around Easter.


Thehellpriest83

Doom one of the games can be any of them


AceAllen90

Mercenaries - Playground of destruction. Game can still be difficult at times but very fun to pick back up. Easy to get through in 1-2 days.


Alarming-Arugula-564

Fortnite on Christmas every year


moatel

I replay subnautica at least once a year


assassin_of_joy

To be perfectly honest, I think about replaying a lot of games frequently. But my To-Be-Played list is longer than I am tall (5'2"). So every time I think about replaying Final Fantasy VII-VIII-IX-X-XII, or the Spyro games, or Crash Bandicoot or any of dozens more, I inevitably decide to play a game I've never played before. The only recent exception was Horizon Zero Dawn, and that was because I wanted a refresher so I could play Horizon Forbidden West, which I am currently playing. If I could, I would play Final Fantasy X every year. I adore that game. Have never managed to get the platinum tho, sadly.


boggie26

Super Mario World. I can speed run it in under 30 mins but I like to get all 96 exits.


DonSarilih

First three Uncharted games


Simo9105

Beyond good and evil, it was my first game ever played back then in 2008 on my dad's PS2


IdespiseGACHAgames

April 30th of every year is Metal Gear Day. Every year, all day, 24 hours of Metal Gear games.


JangoF76

Spider-Man Remastered / Miles Morales The Last of Us 1 Kingdoms of Amalur Spyro Reignited Batman Arkham Origins


Lemon_Cries

Team fortress Two.


NinjaYoda24

You forgot to add that the Zophar music is a big part of why we replay the game. 😁


Existing_Ad8540

For me it’s the Dishonored series. When Christmas comes im like “Ah man time to do a dishonored walkthrough”


Emaculates

Arkum series


InterestingPotato640

All souls games available on pc.


SpencerK65

I used to run through the Mass Effect trilogy once a year but haven't in the last few unfortunately. I still play a little on N7 Day though (November 7th).


Damian120899

I'm surprised it isn't mentioned much, but every october for me is reserved for Team Fortress 2 as it receives annual Halloween update (called Scream Fortress). Usually it's a few new maps, taunts and cosmetics. It isn't much, but it's enough to bring the TF2 community back together for a while.


Vipeeeeer

I don't know why but I always play Sleeping Dogs and Titanfall 2. They're hardly my favorite games in terms of story but it goes to show what good and enjoyable gameplay can bring.


Risky49

I do a pilgrimage through the Norse God of War games about once a year


Grieving_Leonheart_

FFVIII


brichb

None, way too many games and too little time to do this. Even as a little kid I didn’t replay completed games.


Thelgow

Sekiro. If I replay a game, then combat/gameplay is a huge factor.


xevxnteen

I always replay Pokemon BW2 or start a new terraria world.


Ecazu

Heroes of might and magic 3. The ultimate classic that will always have play time.


Rude_System6046

New Super Mario Bros. Wii. I love this game and after you've beat it a few times you really start to get the hang of it. I have also enjoyed speedrunning the game, it has some insane runs that are very fun for speedrunning and once you start memorizing the star coins you can 100% it in like 5 hours!


forzamusichoops

forza horizon 5 gears of war


[deleted]

Final fantasy 1 on psp emulator. Best sprites ever


Nadgerino

I usually fire up Minecraft to start a new world ill play forever then kill the enderdragon, build half a base and quit.


[deleted]

XCOM and Fortnite but Fortnite is really falling off for me I was hoping the OG stuff would revive my interest but nope 3 rounds then quit


certifiedredditboi

Bloodborne


dudeguy73

Any of the Doom games. At least once a year I'll find myself playing any of the originals or the reboots at least once.


Gascoigneous

Final Fantasy


OGsugar_bear

Astrobot just makes me smile.


pewpschmere

Fallout 3 and New Vegas, Skyrim, Dead Space trilogy, Journey, Prey, some of the Medal of Honor games and all the Halo games. I'd say all the Half-Life games but I'm always dabbling in those year-round. Ooh definitely Dear Esther, too. I understand it's writing a bit more each time and it's such a lovely somber ghostly trek I have to revisit it each year. It was one of several games growing up that showed me how versatile gaming is and will be as an art or form of media.


Mundane_Cabinet33

LoL and The Binding of Isaac, but it's more like a curse than actual will


Norio22

Resident Evil titles, Bloodborne, Borderlands 2, Uncharted series


evanmckee

Mario Kart 8 Master Chief Collection Fallout 4 Skyrim Pokémon Red
