Do you play you Turbo Games to beat them or more for fun?

[fsa]

When I get a game I tend to play it to see how far I can get but my untimate goal is to finish the games without any cheat code but there are certain game that I replay just for fun (Blazing Lazers, Legendary Axe, Cyber Core, TV Sport Basketball).

Or are there any games that no matter how hard you try it seems impossible to complete, for me I have a hard time completing "Space Harrier", I get to the last level but with no luck, R-type was also a bit of a pain to beat.

Hmm, well for fun or not, I would assume that the general idea of a game is to beat it, unless it's something like Pac-Man which seems to go on forever, but then you are trying to beat a scare even. I get what you are saying, but if you are playing games that aren't fun, what's the point in the first place?  Sorry, after the prickish comments, please continue with this thread. Was just my wandering thoughts being expressed.

I play Turbo because it's fun.  If I manage to beat a game in the process of having fun, all the better.

I play games with the goal of beating 'em, but I'll keep re-playing games that I know I'll never beat but enjoy (nexzr).  For the sake of variety, I also play games that aren't all that much fun, but I won't keep going back to 'em over and over.

Depends on the game.   Some games I just play to kill time and listen to the music. 

I generally only set out to beat RPGs.    The rest, it's like yay I beat it.    but if not, don't care.

Wait a min games can be beat? I just play with them till they get wet, but now I'm bringing out the whips.

For me, the fun comes from trying to beating the game. That's why I don't like playing MMORPGs, for example; I like ending screens

I think it does depend on the game.  But I'd say mostly just for fun on my end.

Lately I've been finishing off a few games I've had lying around for 20 years but never managed to beat.  Take that however you want it.

Normally I select and play a game for 'fun'  however generally turns into  'I can beat this'.  Games that I get totally stuck on go into to pile that I will continue to chip away at occasionally.
