unimpressively it's probably PvZ. Finished it on iPhone about a dozen times and have now completed the campaign on my laptop another bunch of times too. Its incredibly easy to play whilst watching movies / TV.
Beat Gold, had the battery death bug and fixed, beat gold again. Bought Crystal, beat Crystal. Needed to trade Pokemon from Gold, battery died yet again, beat Gold a third time.
Mass Effect 1. Finished it 3 times, started it 5 with a 6th on the way soon (new PC copy). I tend not to replay games, but I wanted a lot of options for ME2. I may ahve also finished KOTOR three times, too but it's been so long since I played it originally on the Xbox I can't say for certain. I know I beat it twice (1 good/1 evil) and I know I played additional games after that but I can't recall if I played any of them through to the end again.
Resident Evil 4. Unlocked everything, including except the hand cannon on the GCN, then played it again on the Wii and got everything INCLUDING the hand cannon.
And then I just did absurd playthroughs, like one where I only used the IRL and another in which I only used the starting guns.
Half life 2. Id say around 7 or so times. Each time with its own reason. New computer, mod that allows co-op, achievements, hard mode, fake factory, etc
I've played Mass Effect 1 through from beginning to end about half a dozen times, Mass Effect 2 I think 4 times, umm.... Arkham Asylum like 4 times, Grandia 2 a whole bunch of times I don't even remember, The Sands of Time like a dozen times (Warrior Within and Two Thrones probably 5 or 6 each). After that it's miscellaneous fighting games (and WoW) and such but those don't really count.
So for the games I can actually remember, it's probably The Sands of Time.
I beat Star Fox 64 at least 30 times, taking the alternate worlds as much as possible and getting the better ending most of the time. It isn't much of a feat though that game is only a few hours long.
Max Payne 2 would probably come second because of all the mods. I played the hell out of that game, and I will still play more!
The original Bionic Commando, I don't even know how many times, 20? 30? I don't think anything else is even close, maybe Super Mario Brothers, or MegaMan 2.
That will most likely be permanent as I'm pretty confident I will never do that with games again.
How do you define finished really? I could say I have finished Tekken 3 dozens and dozens of times and would make sense on the right context hehehe.
Other than that, I would say Halo 1 was my most finished game. Well over a dozen times throughout various difficulties and once or twice on local coop. Those were good times when Halo was a fresh console experience and the franchise was novel. Also making sense with the title as you actually explored a Halo ring throughout the game, which I will always remember as an entertaining experience.
Pokemon Blue..I can't recall the number of times I've finished that game, at least 20 times maybe. I would do quick runs and use the missingno trick and would finish the game (beat the elite 4) in probably 10-12 hours depending on how long I took the breaks.
The first Jak and daxter I think, or the third one. Other possibility is Sands of Time, played through that a bunch trying to speedrun it. Only managed 4-5h while the current record is 2h. Also Castlevania SoTN. All of these games should be at about 8-10 times each.
All kinds of Mario games and whatever got intp my fingers when I was a kid. Also a couple of 20h+ games like Mass Effect 1, Terranigma and Gothic 2, completed them all about six times :-) oh and Diablo 2 of cause!
Don't really remember how many times I've play through them, but I know I finished Max Payne 2 and MGS1 the most times, somewhere between 5 to 10 times, I think that Vice City(not 100% off course, just storyline) is a close "second", cause I finished it at least 5 times as far as I can remember.
For me, it's gotta be either Metal Gear Solid 1 or perhaps Half Life 2. I played the hell out of MGS as a kid, and I still to this day find myself coming back to Half Life 2 often. The game is just overflowing with atmosphere.
Don't think I've played any game more than twice, but that list of games has become quite long actually. So I don't have a game I've finished the most. The game I've spent most time with though, becides WoW, is probably Fallout 3, with Mass Effect 2 on a close second.
It's definitely the original Kingdom Hearts. I played that game so much, the disc eventually broke. I was stuck in the Coliseum, and the overworld wouldn't really load.
It's almost certainly The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time. When I was young I would spend more or less every weekend at my friend's house and we would beat the game while alternating dungeons. On top of that, I played that game a lot on my own. I estimate that I've beaten it more than 50 times.
