Best game with a load of sand in it, a la Dune 2 | The Best Games Ever Podcast

It's been long and arduous road to something resembling a worthy adaptation of Frank "dirty" Herbert's sand-based epic Dune, but with the recent release of Denis Villeneuve's Dune 2, we can safely call that one done. I just hope we get enough sequels for the films to start covering such nonsense as half-worm emperors and chair dogs.
Aside from the various video game adaptations of Dune - from classic RTS games to modern upcoming survival games - there have been plenty of games that effectively use the desolation and devastation of desert sand. Who can forget the arresting third act of Uncharted 3, or the Tatooine section of KOTOR, or the grand majesty of Assassin's Creed Origins, with its ambitious recreation of sun-drenched North Africa?
But which sandy game is the best one, according to our lovely panel? If Alex Donaldson was in this episode, he'd have picked Fifty Cent: Blood on the Sand, but he isn't. To find out what was actually pitched, watch The Best Games Ever Podcast!

Seeing Tom in the thumbnail had me worried I was in for some Trinca shenanigans. Now I see he’s in the video, great video. 10 stars. Tom was robbed.

[@ceripowe3818]

Also I did wait 23 minutes to hear Tom speak, it was worth it

[@captaincokecan]

Toms energy throughout is why he is a hero of the common man, a hero with many tales of incontinent toddlers and shirtless Connors

Week 1 of asking for Burns to come back on the podcast

[@cbennett_12]

Tom comes back for one week with loads of new fascinating stories and gets robbed more than ever before

[@MrVg247]

I know, right! - Tom

[@paklaselt2198]

Rage comes to mind. But my original pick was also Spec Ops

[@Psientologist]

In Southampton there is SANDY BALLS Holiday Park. True story.

[@snapperfisch]

spicy dune takes

[@finaleve]

Tom’s been robbed once again-okay no. Nier Automata would be my pick for an entire area dedicated to a desert with a bunch of little nooks to find if you take the time to look. But also for a stretch Prince of Persia Sands of Time. Should bring back the listener suggestions section back.

[@gregorymorrison5818]

Glad they brought back Jim for this one

[@MrVg247]

It was touch and go for a while

[@DenKulesteSomFins]

Now this is a topic with a lot of good games to pick Uncharted 3(objectively the best one) Journey Red dead redemption Fallout new Vegas

[@paklaselt2198]

New Vegas definitely

[@tobypearman5865]

I'm not welsh
