Replay Value

Replay value is a VERY important thing for me and I always consider it when I but a game at GameStop. I posted another topic called "Achivements and Unlockables" these are two of the main things used to up replay value. I wanted to wonder what other things up replay value besisdes

> Addtional game-modes

> Unlockables

> Acheivement

> Reward system

> Plain-fun. addciting game-play

> Multiplayer

> Random stuff

> Alternatate endings

I probably have most of the things that contribute to replay value but I wanted to know other's opionon on replay values and ideas for things that up the replay value.

I found this article to be really interesting on this subject: http://www.gamasutra.com/view/feature/1 ... php?page=1

It's about Gameplay Progression. How you can alter the Gameplay to keep the player interested. You probably know a lot of these techniques already, but it's still worth the read.

Thanks The first page was interesting, I'll have to check out the rest later (school...urg). I already game some ideas (how could I forget about different difficulty settings...derp moment)
