With most any game that raises the level of difficulty as you play through games multiple times, I enjoyed it. In fact, I do believe I enjoyed it more the second or third time through.

I believe this is due largely in part that I knew and understood the controls and mechanics of the game. Sometimes the controls and camera are sluggish or unintuitive, largely the latter, but there are methods to compensate or cirmcunavigate such issues by learning methods of compensation.

The game was ridiculously easy in normal mode, so it was a relief to play in Hard and Very Hard. I believe this also added to playing through the game multiple times.

And it is always a wonderful thing to be able to discover the secrets you missed the first time through.

The plot benefits significantly from repeated exposure, since (in true Square style) a lot of it is told in a disjointed, non-linear fashion with a lot of important clues revealed by tiny snippets of dialogue.

although you know whats going to happen next, i enjoyed my second playthrough on hard more than my first on normal.

i did better on some levels on hard than i did on easy because i had some experience from compelting the game already which made things fun and overall, hard mode is more fun in my opinion.

Being an Shooter fan, I was dissapointed by the difficulty. But on my second playthrough, I chose very hard, auto aim off. It drastically upped the fun factor.

What a sad life you must live. If you don't replay, you generally buy more games.
