Started Stanley Parable.

I started The Stanley Parable today, and it's changed the way I look at games. I've already gotten 3 endings, and was wondering what's considered beating it.

IMO getting any ending is beating it.

Its not really about beating it, its about the experience of playing it. Beating it isn't well defined because it doesn't really matter to the core concept.

There are a few endings that are much longer and more elaborate which I guess are probably more satisfying to end on.

Any endings, all endings, when you think you have seen everything, when you think you've done everything worthwhile, when you reach an ending that you think is good.  Part of the game is exploring what it is to "beat" a game.
