10 hours is good

How long do you want a game like uncharted to be

it's no MGS or FF

Ratchet SEEMs to be HUGE due to MANY environments

Zelda is an adventure game around 30ish hours

But if Uncharted ends up being Beyond Good and Evil quality, then 10hr is acceptable

Try closer to 60. I was pretty slow, and clocked in around 70 by the time I was done.

re: this review - has anyone actually read the review and commented, or just used the score?

...pretty much what I expected. The basic formula is great, so they didn't tinker with it too much. Its a really pretty version of the original PS2 (gameplay) version. Some quotes:

"...brazenly wears its heritage on its sleeve, and chooses rejuvenation over innovation..."

"...first version to feature on-rails sections... they are really straightforward - shoot, dodge, shoot - but are magnificent to look at..."

"Overall: Intense, beautiful and accessible. A return to the series roots and a stellar game overall"

 

(this is probably the first PS3 game I wouldn't mind playing - wonder if one of my mates will pick it up...)

 

 I'd average Zelda games at around 50 hours for the first palythrough, depending on what you do.   I know some people that finished TP in ~35 hours, and some taht took over 70.  I clocked in a little over 50, if I recall correctly, and I had only 3 heart peices left to find when I finished.

Of course, on a second playthrough, one could probably finish a Zelda game in under 30 hours easy.
