MikeB said: @ konnichiwa I still remember Jax and Daxter that was pretty short 8-10 hours but Jax 2-3 were a lot longer. Interesting point, also God of War 2 only took 2 years to complete instead of 3 while improving on the original, so much of the early development effort may be geared towards getting the game engines up to spec for this generation, with sequels they can much more focuss on adding more to the original concept and have a better understanding of the potentials. |
The devs at Naughty Dog said they really spent too much time creating and optimizing their engine in the early stages of development.
Now that they have the engine fully working, (which took a lot of dev time) it's logical that a sequel to Uncharted could be much longer.
@Konnichiwa- As I said, it's a standard GT review. If it leaves you saying "what the hell?" that's normal. :)
