20 hours is now considered incredibly long? I really hate the average length of games this generation.

You cannot name a single generation where an action game being 20 hours long would be something besides an aberration.

Man, are you kidding me?  Snes games took anywhere from 30 minutes to a couple of hours.  Even megahits like Like Link to the Past and Super Metroid were only a couple of hours long if you knew where to go.  Battletoads, Bayou Billy, Castlevania 3, all of these games were tough as hell but could be beaten in about an hour and a half!  Resident Evil, Double Dragon, Brawl Bros., Metal Gear Solid, Starfox --I actually think games are longer than they were in the 8-Bit/16-bit eras and about the same as they ever were during the PS1-PS2 eras!!

But

But that's what I was saying
