And what benefit have we seen from this? Heavenly Sword is a 6-7 hour game. That's just plain ridiculous. Twilight Princess is a 40 hour game, and it fits on a 1.5GB Gamecube Minidisc. There is NO BENEFIT to this extra storage space. You want to tell me why 50GBs of space haven't resulted in a game even half the length of 1.5GBs of space? Blu-ray has no benefit to the gaming industry as far as we have seen. |
Frankly, I think you'd have to be an idiot to say something like that. The disc size has absolutely nothing to do with the game length. I can make a 1,000 hour game on a single floppy disc and not even fill it up. That doesn't make it a good game. And, in fact, I'd have to say that HS is probably a better game at 6-7 hours than it would have been at 15-20 and it's somehting I'm more likely to pick up.
Some people don't want to, or simply can't, devote dozens of hours to a single game and still hope to play others throughout the year. The last time I played a game that lasted me over 100 hours it was literally the only game I played for the first 4 months that I owned it, and it was still the focus of most of my playing for another 6 months after that.
If All I have for gaming is 10 hours a month, I don't want HS to last 20 hours. Simple as that. Just because you don't have to work to keep a roof over your head and food in your mouth (let alone the cost of gas, children, school, clothes, etc.) doesn't mean I have the luxury of sitting on my ass and doing nothing productive for 30 hours every week.
You do not have the right to never be offended.
