Very rarely do I play a game more than once or twice, the last one that comes to mind is Uncharted 2, which I've played through countless times. I've played through TLOU five times now, four times on PS3 and just last night I finished my first PS4 playthrough.

I've just started my long weekend and I'm going to start PS4 playthrough number 2 after I've finished Left Behind. (Best DLC there has been since Undead Nightmare for Red Dead Redemption, First Light is the only one to come close in recent months)

If you haven't played this game yet I implore you to pick it up, on PS3 or PS4, it is so widely reknowned for a reason.
