Should be around the same length as KOTOR so i'd say 40-60 hours.

On the latest 1UP Show according to them the main game will last you 14 hours and if you do all the side quest then 20. It was a bit disappointing to hear that but I'm still getting it.

judging by people on the mas effect forum you CAN beat it in about 20 hours, but you can also play many side missions and explore which will make it longer, around 40. Alsoyou are given incentive to start a new game seeing as you can use your previous character after you beat it.

Dont do what this guy did. Half the joy in these types of games is not rushing through everything. Its in exploring the planets.

Yeah, it looks like it's going to be around 30 hours or so doing both the main story and side quests to go with it. People who got the game early have already claimed to beat the game at around 15 hours going through the story elements.

Word was spead that K-Mart stores were selling the game early. I don't know if they do that now, but people took the opportunity to snag an early copy.

try 40. bioware has stated that it should take you about 40 hours to complete.

Thats why people have beat the game in 20-25 hours then right? Developers lie about how long their games are, 40-60 for everything and only 20-25 for the main quest.

I think it could possibly be over 60 hours...Like the length of a final fantasy game, if you want to do everything, which is why bought the game in the first place...
