Okay, seriously... how long does Assassin's Creed last?

The IGN review said it was a 12 hour game, but Gamespot says it will last 20 hours at a MINIMUM and can go up to 50. That's quite a disparity. So what's the truth?

Bought it saturday and played it almost without interruption (yeah it's a great game long time no see a game that draws me that much) so I'm around the 20hrs... Dunno if I'm at the last mish or not but I suppose I'm close to finish it...
Anyway it's a really great game and if you wanna find all the flags (somekind of GTA packages) which I'm not doing it'll take much more time...
I'm just doing the storyline, but everything in the cities (i.e. help people, observation points or how they're called in english, etc.)
Hope it helps ^^

I'm about 18-19 hrs in and I'm only in Chapter 6. It totally depends on what you're actually doing in the game. If you're just trying to whip through it with the minimum requirements, then 12-15 hrs is most likely your timeframe. I'm finding all of the view points, helping all citizens and doing all of the objectives in each chapter. I'll do the flags and other stuff at some other point. I figure I have another 2-4 hrs to go. I could easily see the game taking 30-40hrs with all the flags and stuff.

I'm 9 hours in and have only killed 3 of the9 targets. if you rush through the game and just kill all the targets just to get it over with, I'm sure it will only last 12 hours. There are a lot of things to do and collect in the game.

So are these extra missions actually worthwhile or are they just collect-a-thons and errands?

Hard to say. There are parts you can't see until you collect everything I think (don't know since I'm still collecting). I finished the main portion of the game but the ending...there's more to it...and I think it's tied (at least a little) into the collectibles. Also, the story has a twist at the end that's pretty cool and implies some interesting things (stick around after the credits).

It will last forever if you get many freezes and the save file corrupts, so you have to start again. :?
