Single use video games
With the news thatAssassin’s Creed Mirage won’t get any post-launch DLC, we of the Electronic Wireless Showpodcastare wondering: what are some good games that only need playing once? Not out of a lack of enjoyment or interest, but because they were so satisfying that they left nothing else to want. Or because it would be too hard to recapture the joy of a first playthrough. Or maybe because they just ended really damn well. Whatever the reasoning, join us as we ponder our favourite games that we’ve never returned to.
Plus! We chat about the games wehavebeen playing, from Nate’s eel-dense management adventures inClanfolkto my wilfully patch note-ignorant return toMinecraft. I also explainTeam Fortress 2’s new seal mode, and Nate hijacks my thrilling hardware section onEU battery legislationto improvise a new trip up the Tower of Jocularity.
