Poll What's *Finishing a Game* to You? (159 votes)
Credit rolls certainly aren't it for me. Hell, some games like Dragon's Dogma: Dark Arisen have like five credit rolls overall. It certainly ain't S-Ranking either, there's usually an insane amout of pointless busywork involved in that. However, I believe I need to see the ending to have finished a game, but just because that happend, doesn't mean I've played all the meaningful content on offer, which is prerequisite to actually *finish a game* for me.
I'm currently playing Assassin's Creed 3, which is full of horridly designed fed-ex quests and other inane shit, but damn are the good missions grandiose. I'm kinda in a rush, to knock this one out before Tuesday (when GTAV is expected to be in my mailbox). I can't quite beeline it, because of the hidden gems amongst filler, like some of the extracurricular Maritime missions. Now I feel like I'm picking through rat turds to find the raisins, but really AC3 is too good when it's good not to *Finish It* for real, and find and play all the great bits there are to it.
Long story short, for me it's option B. Having played all, or most meaningful content, including the ending - that's finishing a game to me.
