From the article...."The BBFC also listed GTAIV's running time as around seven and three-quarter hours (463 minutes), a figure presumably derived from playing through solely the main section of the game. The final time is bound to be much longer, given the fact its predecessor, Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas, ran nearly 100 hours. However, according to a recent note from Janco Partners analyst Mike Hickey, even a game of that length would likely suck up over 2.68 billion man-hours this year."
I'm gonna be pissed if the main section is less than 8 hours long. However, strangely enough, I feel this might be true. Many games this generation have been on the short side. GameSpot quickly dismisses this 7 3/4 hour running time. However, with the limits of DVD9, and the pressures with RockStar having to develop this title for 2 platforms, I'm concerned that this game will indeed be super-short. Yes...I know the main quest in GTA games aren't all there is to it. But Vice City and San Andreas definitely had main quests much longer than 8 hours.
