and people bashed Gears of War for being 10-12 hours long! lol..

Gears of War has Online multiplayer which I personally spent at least 50 hours playing..

Gears of War was NOT 10-12 hrs long. More like 7-8 hrs

at least it has multiplayer

I found this post interesting. Can't really disagree with it, but what do you all think:

[QUOTE=""]The main thing about the whole "We need Blu-Ray, DVD makes our games too short, because of storage limitations..." is what is really setting this off, to be perfectly honest.

The SDF'ers pointed to Gears of War's total game length and said "See? See? If they'd had a Blu-Ray Drive, they could've packed in so much more content! Made the game longer!"

But at the same time, now that we have the first BIG BIG PS3 game coming out (Lair) and it's just a couple hours longer than Gears of War, but is ON Blu-Ray, the SDF'ers are valiently (and in vain) trying to defend it by saying "Well, it's a great game! Look at all the other single player games that ONLY lasted 10-12 hours!"

Yet they conveniently forget that Gears of War is only a mere 2-3 hours in total Single Player length behind them.....while being on an "Inferior Media Format that holds only 1/5th the amount of storage.".

The SDF'ers also conveniently forget that unlike Gears of War, Lair doesn't have any apparent method of multi-player (co-op or multi-player player vs player or anything), yet, Gears of War has HUNDREDS OF HOURS worth of online play (in various forms).

So, how is it going to be, SDF'ers? Is the "superior media format" so much needed now? Looking at shots of Gears of War vs. Lair & I'm not seeing this "Vastly improved, MUST HAVE Blu-Ray to achieve all of this..." level of detail. I'm also not seeing the need of "must have Blu-Ray to achieve SO MUCH MORE GAME PLAY over DVD9." that your Blu-Ray Sony PR Bible Thumping was doing all this time, but now only appears to have a mere "couple of hours of SP legnth" over what DVD9 offers, but completely has scrapped any of the potential "Hundreds of Hours from Online/Multi-Player Modes".

So how is it, SDF'ers?Huxley_00

That's disappointing. But for the record, I think the cows are pwning themselves enough. We don't even have to try anymore. It's like Crypto paid a visit. :|

But gears of war was worth playing....

and yh gears is 99% about the multiplayer 

Still longer than Gears.gsx1100

Gears has multiplayer.  

Now in a way it confirms that this game will get atleast a 9 in value. With the medal system and online leaderboard, this game will have around 30-40 hours of playtime (if this game is really fun, which it probably will be).

Most if not all 360 games have leaderboards and medals/achievements. What are you getting at here?

By your logic, all 360 games take 30-40 hrs at the least to complete because of achievements. Your argumement works better for the 360 side of the debate.
