I got The Bouncer on PS2 and that game lasted an insanely short amount of time. Heck I think I could beat it in 30 minutes if I skip the cutscenes. Maybe Ryse is short. Then again, so was Heavenly Sword and that game was a favorite of mine for years.


lol I got the Bouncer because it was made by Squaresoft, couldn't believe how quickly I beat the game...

I quickly realized that certain games are just meant to be graphical showcases for new hardware.  We'll see if Ryse is one of them.

The Bouncer was awesome! Air-juggling for the win!

Also, I remember there was a cut scene in a train car that was... jiggly.

Wai did they really expect anything else than pure combat from a game where you control a roman general.... What next, they'll expect motorcycles in forza 5 and aliens in DR3... Maybe dinosaurs in zoo tycoon???

and 90 minutes ??? Yeah right... I haven't seen a single game that you can finish in 3 hours on regular setting... Maybe a few in speed play avoiding everything from the game.... Do the maths it would mean that game has barely 12 level so you get 9 new finish move a level???

Lol yeah right you guys are a trip.... I don't know what game you are referring too but on sheer difficulty alone I haven't had a single game that lasted less than 6 hours even on attari or commodore.... And I did say playing the game normaly not on speed play....

Really?

I've beaten a lot of games in under 6 hours and a good chunck of those were under 3 hours.

Except there are short games for all platforms... but you can keep on being ignorant about it... or maybe you just suck a lot and any game will take you a lot of time to beat.

I apparently suck at games then... Which is good apparently I get to enjoy them more and they worth my money then lol...
but on top of my head I don't recall finishing, Mario bros, double dragon, street of rage, eco the dolphin, Alex kid, tmnt, Mario land 2, r-type, or the likes in 6 hours...
maybe you guys suck at choosing games lol....

Another reviewer said it took him 7h to beat the game. Let's wait until the embargo drops.

I highly doubt he has a PS4 already....

@endimion: the games you listed where difficult, thats what made them appear long, most of them could easily be finished in under 6 hours if you knew what you're doing.
