[QUOTE="NextGen86"]So I don't know if you've heard about this or not, but I just watched IGN's video review of the game and they said that the game is only about 6 hours long! WTF!!! I was excited for this game, and still am because the presentation looks awesome, but the length of the game is horrible. Might have to be a rent for me now because full price for that amount of gameplay is robbery. What do you guys think?

at $59.99 in the US that's ten bucks an hour if you are a really good gamer and can manage to beat it in six hours. 10 bucks an hour doesn't sound bad to me, and that's just if you base the cost on playing it once and fast. if you are the kind of person who plays a game only once, then you ought to consider renting anyway. now if you buy it and lend it to your nephew or kid brother and he beats it in six hours then it only cost you five bucks per hour of fun and you get to be a hero besides.
the average person won't beat it six hours. if it takes ten hours for most people that's only six bucks an hour, or three bucks an hour if you lend it to your kid brother and he beats it in ten hours. that is less than minimum wage. we're talking pretty cheap here.
and again, almost no one plays a game like this only once and often more than one person gets to play it off the same disc without incurring additional cost. you can always sell or trade the game when you're done and recover some of your cost. you might get your cost down to $1.25 an hour, and that is some cheap fun!
sixty bucks for a game like this is practically nothing if you do the math, doh. so what's the complaint?
Holy cow, you're right, my friend :)
