Depends on the game. But most n of us were too young to even buy games then so that's irrelevant. We shouldn't be using past gen games as a barometer for today. Bu...bu..but RE could be beat in 5 hours. RE alao had block primitive 3D models and almost half the space games have now. There is way too much advancement today to justify a short linear 60 dollar corridor shooter

...are you trying to argue game length back then was directly matched to the technology they used? You know how long RPGs were back in the mid 90s?

And most of those RPGs were 3-4 disc long or on cartridges that was 80 dollars. But no I am not equating game length to technology. Just that we should not be using what happened back then as a barometer for the current

All jokes and arguments aside, if this game was retailed at $39.99, every single poster in this thread would buy it and play it.

The price is really what's gonna hold the game back. Your regular gamer will buy any game that's hyped and this game has major hype but for all the wrong reasons.

This is a must play game but RAD underestimated the gaming community. How the hell did they not see this coming? People want value for their money. This game isn't worth $59.99/$69.99 to be beaten and getting 100% on two play throughs.

is that a real gripe?...i ask cause I can do that on a lot of games that don't include fake 'extend game length' trophies like: kill x amount with a certain weapon, do something x amount of times, or reach a certain level online....and those games I've done it with were fun as shyt, and I didn't care about the length of the game....cause length doesn't determine fun....

anyway, so what is the big 'how dare they?' that's going on with this game: it's supposedly short?...I don't care....I've been interested in this game since I heard about it and that interest has only gone up the more info that's come out, so i'm copping day 1....that's how i am/do with games i want to play, i cop them day 1.....if it turns out to be short as shyt, but it's a damn good game( fun, good story, gameplay, etc.), i'm good....if it turns out to be short as shyt and the game isnt a good game, lesson learned...i know i'm only speaking for me, and I understand if others don't feel the same way....but for people to act like length determines if a game is good? that's bullshyt...

Still don't get the whole buy a game knowing you gonna sell it days later angle.

Might as well skip it and save the 60.

And @Fatboi1 really needs to chill and understand the true criticism for this game. No matter the argument, the game is not worth it price. And no reasoning behind is going to change that.

The game has no replay ability... 0..zip.. Nada.. It screams rental. Hell if blockbuster was still open, I would camp overnight and be the first one to rent it and return it the next day.

Accept it.. The game length is the problem. I would have cared less about pretty graphics if they could extend it for 5 more hours.
I'm only playing $26 for the game Friday..... I lost right?? :troll:

nikkas acting like I'm fukking stupid or something. :snoop:

People do that all the time with longer games. Some just want to extend that $60 for a while. Cop a game used and beat it and return within 7 days.
All this furor about a damn game's length and nikkas acting like there's no way to actually play the game on release or near it while still saving money. :smh:
