Games you loved, but will likely never play more than once.

Assassins Creed 2. Too easy, would be bored pretty quickly. Also my 360 is broken, so....

Dragon Age. It took me around 60-80 hours to complete it. Sure it would be faster on 2nd run, but still...Bit too long for me. I'm still going to play through Awakening, just got it today.

[KEM10]

Dragon Age: Origins
Ostagar is too much of a hassle and it seems too long winded to keep my attention for more than a week or so.

 

[Sinclair Solutions]

Batman: Arkham Asylum, both of the Assassin's Creed, and Fallout 3.

There is just so much to do in these games. I couldn't go back unless I had no other games to play and large amount of free time.

 

[MetalDooley]

Assassin's Creed 2

Did literally everything there is to do in the game so I can't see myself going back to it

 

[Dexiro]

Both Uncharted games. I loved them to bits but I'd never play them again, first time through it's like playing through an Indiana Jones movie but once you know what's going to happen it's a little boring.

 

[icame]

Silent hill
Oblivion
Beyond good and evil
Final Fantasy 6
Final Fantasy 7

I usually tend to be unable to replay any of the games that I liked, it just makes them become too predictable to me, and as I know what's about to happen in the story I tend to find lots of faults in the game.
However, games in particular that I could definately not replay are Nier, any of the Metal Gear Solid games, Splinter Cell Conviction and both Bioshock games, even though I thought that they were all brilliant.

Super Mario Galaxy.

Unironically this is the reason I dislike the game so much. The level design bores me to tears and it feels incredibly tedious to go back to levels and finding stars post-main quest. They're incredibly claustrophobic, linear and ride on charm and novelty which is good the first time but Christ does it get incredibly poor about half-way through.

Super Mario Galaxy 2 fixes that though. I still go back playing that.

I'd also consider naming the Ace Attorney games but the stories in those games are so good and well written that even when foreseeing what will happen and how to get through stuff, I don't mind it the least. It's fun as hell to go through.

 

[baddude1337]

Metal Gear Solid 4. In terms of story it is a great end to the series, but in terms of gameplay only the first half of the game is brilliant, the second half the gameplay took a major backseat for the story, even for an MGS game.

 

[meowman]

Dragon Age: Origins
Brilliant, but simply much too long to warrant a repeat playthrough

 

[JourneyThroughHell]

Alpha Protocol.

I can safely say that despite me bashing it in my review [http://www.escapistmagazine.com/forums/read/326.227034-JourneyThroughHell-Reviews-Alpha-Protocol-PC] (shameless plug), but, you know, it stuck in my head. I remember it. I still remember the choices, the bosses, the dialogue, the outcome, one of the best endings in recent gaming... but the gameplay was just... eh. Not worth struggling with again, I believe.

Other than that, Mass Effect. This has nothing to do with the game (it kinda has, some of the planets are really dull), but, I just finished it playing the character I would be (making the choices I would make) and I doubt it would be interesting to go "all good" and I doubt I have the nerve to go "all bad".

 

[gmaverick019_v1legacy]

for the most part, most adventure type games, i love them, but i dont play them over again nearly ever.

such as

all the assassins creed games
god of war games
prince of persia games
zelda games

i enjoyed all those games, alot, i just dont find it fun at all to sit through them again.

opposite of the main poster, i play through rpg's more than once for sure (unless its a jrpg..i will agree, those things are so fucking long, i usually give it one good chug to go through then im done)

 

[BlastedTheWorm]

Stranglehold
Transformers: War for Cybertron
Dead Space

 

[Koroviev]

I don't foresee myself replaying Bioshock 2 or any Professor Layton game (it's a bit silly to restart a puzzle game, as much as I enjoy the series).

You'd be shocked.

Give it a year, and all the puzzles will be fresh and new.

That's probably true, but I think I'd prefer to start on the next installment instead.

 

[The Night Shade]

SC:conviction,Fallout 2 and AC 1

 

[warm slurm]

Persona 4
Every Phoenix Wright game

 

[Gigaguy64]

Probably Dead Space.

I loved it but, the bulk of its Gameplay gets old really fast.

 

[Treeinthewoods]

Assassins Creed 1-2
Xenosaga
Ninja Gaiden 2
Devil May Cry 1-4

It's just lack of desire really, certain games I have just get eclipsed by the constant stream of new releases I can finally afford. I replayed a lot more games when I was a kid and also during college, now I don't have to unless I really, really want to.

 

[CRoone]

Fallout 3, Red Dead Redemption, Modern Warfare 2, Saints Row 2, Resistance: Fall of Man (though I only liked this one), Assassin's Creed (I and II), Burnout Revenge...
actually, it would take less time for me to list the games I *would* play again, but that's not the point of this forum.
