Have you ever played a game on easy after completing it on normal

Usually you hear of people always bumping the difficulty up, but have you ever decided to bump it down after completing the game on a higher difficulty? I did that with Metal Gear Solid 3 for some odd reason. Just did it for the hell of it.

I did Mirror's Edge on hard shooting guns, then did it on easy not shooting guns. It was much more difficult/frustrating on easy w/out guns...

Vanquish  
 
Half the fun is sliding around and flipping off guys faces like an asshole. That's not a game that should be put on hold so you can huddle behind cover licking your wounds.

I did it on hard without shooting guns XD That was a mistake, lmao.

But to answer the question, I went back and played Bioshock on easy as everyone said it was essentially god mode. Twas quite fun :)

Yes, I do it to farm achievements and have a good time. I'm intending to replay infamous 2 on easy to get the hero achievements and story.

Yeah for achievements.

i rarely get time to play games twice. but im currently playing infamous 2 and i will play that twice one as bad and once as good. but i wont be playing it on easy the second time il up it to the harder difficulty. 

I always play the Call of Duty games on veteran on the first playthrough and then turn the difficulty down if I want to play through the story again.

Sometimes I get the urge to play something, just for the feeling or whatever like listening to a favourite song and those are the times i'll usually just play on easy.

It depends on the game. For example games where you are supposed to be powerful I like playing with the difficulty turned down on the second playthrough such as Infamous. However I usually ramp up the difficulty for games after I completed it the first time.

Yep. Sometimes I just want to wage wholesale destruction for stress relief purposes. 

No, actually I never did this. I played two or three games on easy but never changed to easy after playing through a game on hard or normal.

I do that from time to time. For example Gears of War after beaiting on hardest I wanted to just run around and shoot without caring for cover. Also all the Force Unleashed games since they should really be played on lowest difficulty settings.

Hell no. Once I beat a game, that's it. I'm not gonna go back and play it on a different difficulty. Why would I do that?

Yes, whenever I just feel like enjoying the game without much stress.

I beat Arkham Asylum on Hard and I am replaying it on easy just for fun. 

Can't think of anything off the top of my head, but I know there have beem times when I would set it to easy because I just wanted to play it again to make different story choices.

Dragon Age games.

Red Faction Guerilla :D that game was made for easy.

No. I'm better at the game by this point, so it's already easier without artificially lowering the challenge. That's probably one of the last things I'd ever do actually, unless it was for something like achievements, which it probably wouldn't be, since I don't care.

Red Faction: Guerilla.

The only time I remember doing this was with Sparkster on the Mega Drive. It was rather disappointing since they make you skip whole levels.

yes, i do it sometimes to get achievements. in resident evil 5 i played it on easy to get all of the blue targets.

I've done it when I missed an achievement and didn't want the hassle of going through on hard difficulty.

Yeah I did it for Uncharted II so I could get the 50 kills with x gun medals and could use the cheats.
