It seems to me we’ve stumbled upon a new era. Without even realizing it, a new criteria for game love has appeared. Though really, it isn’t all that new. It’s something that did happen before, once ports started becoming prolific, but now that we’re heading into the midst of the digital era, we’ve reached a point where the best way to determine the value and merit of a video game isn’t based upon review scores or peer pressure.
It’s how often you’re willing to buy it.
Gary Green said: We’re finding ourselves in a similar position with the Pixel Remaster edition of Final Fantasy IV as we were with Final Fantasy III since, once again, we’ve received a slightly upscaled, more vibrant port of the original game when there’s already an expanded 3D remake available. As such, we’re playing a game which, even after its long-awaited release, still lives very much in the shadow of its remake.
If only they didn't screw ps4 owners over with a physical release. I'd have ran through this in a heartbeat.
The first one I played, it was the one that made me fall in love with JRPGs and is still my favorite to this day. A masterpiece
A new SEGA / Atlus Switch eShop sale started up this week, which includes the lowest prices ever for various games including Persona 3 Portable, Sonic Origins Plus, and more.
One of the most beloved entries in Square Enix’s long-running franchise is celebrating its 30th anniversary and that’s cause for celebration!
This arguably is my best game of all time out of the 40yrs I’ve been playing videogames

I thought I was the only crazy bastard. It prevents me from trying other rpgs, but I think I rather get stuck with the same old than to try a new rpg I may never like.
Hmm
I own four copies of Ocarina of Time (N64, Wind Waker Preorder bonus, Collection, 3DS)
3 copies of A Link To The Past (SNES, GBA, Wii Ware)
4 Copies of Resident Evil 4 (GCN, Wii, PC, 360)
3 Copies of Resident Evil 5 (360, PS3, PC)
2 Copies of Resident Evil: Code Veronica X (PS2, GCN)
2 Copies of Mario Kart 64 (N64, Wii Ware)
3 Copies of Steins;Gate (360, PS3, PSP)
2 Copies of No More Heroes 1 (360, Wii)
2 Copies of Super Mario 64 (N64, DS)
2 Copies of Devil May Cry 1 and 3 (PS2 Only)
2 Copies of Chains of Olympus (PSP, PS3)

I'd buy Persona 3 over and over again as well. Even though I've done EVERYTHING in the game, I still feel like playing it again. And by everything, I SERIOUSLY mean EVERYTHING.
I have Persona 3 and Persona 3: FES on my PS2. I got it as a PS2 Classic from the PS Store for my PS3, I also own Persona 3 Portable. I don't have a Vita but when I do get it, Persona 4 will DEFINITELY be my first Vita game.
2 copies of FFIV PSP and DS.
I bought an extra copy of FFXII once just because it came in a steel case.
I bought Plants vs Zombies three times before I even made it through the entire campaign (Vita version is the tops imo).
I think it is a testament to the game if we're willing to repeatedly spend money on it. Repeated playthroughs are also a good measure.
