Discussion: What Do You Do When You Finish a Game?

I have recently finished Mass Effect 2 (a Quick Thoughts segment will be posted shortly) and right after I finished it, I didn't really know what to do. I had just finished a great/epic adventure, so the only reasonable thing to do, was to "rest". I grabbed a glass of water, some cookies, and just sat on my couch for 20 minutes thinking back to what I had just done.
 What do you guys do when you finish a game? Do you jump right back in for a "New Game Plus"? Do you stop and think about your adventure, and all the great moments you had? Or do you just keep going with your regularly schedule like nothing special has happened?

  4. I usually just move on with my day, sounds a bit lame, but I don't have time to reflect on stuff like that.

  5. When I beat ME2, I personally jumped right back into it playing it completely different. Right now im in the middle of the loyalty missions as a paragon soldier on insanity. So much harder now =]

    Oh and we all know the best quote from SC

    "To hurl chunks, please use the vomit bag in front of you."

  8. After I completed the game I decided to start going around to every planet and clean them out completely and do any missions I missed. Took me quite a few hours, but woot :D

  12. I hurried through the game on my first play through mainly for the story, so I've been playing back at a bit slower pace.

  13. All games should have a New Game + mode, extends the value by twice as much.

    ReplyDelete
  14. New Game + is an awesome feature, especially in the castlevania series since some of those feature extra characters in plus games!

    SOOOOOOO WAAAAAANT BETA KEY!

  15. I hate how RPGs are now being tainted by shooters! and FFXIII is basically a straight walk... no complexity anymore!

    Luckily starcraft is complex and intricate and delicate
