The Rogue Squadron games weren't very long, and I played RS2 more than any other game last gen. Lair is a definite buy for me.

10 - 12 hours on insane maybe. But the achievements will make you play it more. Not like you need achievements for that anyway.

10-12 hours is short?  It took me about 9 hours to beat MGS, and I thought that was really long. :|

Hmm, kind of disappointing. See what the reviews say about replay value when it comes out to decide whether its a buy or a rent.

The medal and ranking system might give some great replay value though. Just gotta wait for this game to come out to see how good it is :P

Wow..... No online and 10-12 hours of gameplay = no AAA.  Scratch this off of the GOTY possiblities.  At best this will get AA.

The days of very long games are over when it cost 10M to make a game that is just the norm. If they had a game that was 40Hours or more they would need the game to seel at least 3 million copies within the first 3 months to be able to break even, and no studio is going to take that risk.

I thought that Blu-Ray helps makes games longer.....people certainly were claiming that DVD was the reason Gears was so short.

to be fair...this game was about 7-8 hrs long and had no multiplayer.

http://www.gamespot.com/pc/action/maxpayne2/review.html?om_act=convert&om_clk=gssummary&tag=summary%3Breview&page=1

it is possible to get AAA without multiplayer people. Not saying it will, but its possible......

Here's another example by Factor 5 themselves.....

Not really. The format itself doesn't dictate game length. It's how much the developers choose to exploit the format

I beat it in 4 hours on hardcore and that was rushed, 7-8 is more than enough if you go through it without rushing.

While you are right in that the format does not dictate game lenght, a rather sizeable percentage of cow mooing around here tends to spell the words to an accusation on the likes of "DVD9 limits game lenght". It's nonsense, but it's oft repeated.

However, this doesn't really count as "ownage", but rather as an appendix, since Motorstorm would have done the "owning" Mixer claims this development has caused.

I can care less about online that you guys payin for..also most action games is around that length 10 to 12 hours..but if anybody wants a longer game then you have to turn to rpgs.and plus the devlopers said u will have to keep playin the game to get certain medals. and unlocked other stuff..so it can be a longer game.

Who expected more than 10-12 hours from LAIR? It's a Factor 5 flight action title.

Talk about unrealistic.  No-one got "pwnzored", 10-12 hours is actually quite lengthy for the genre and premise.
