For B-spec, a rough estimate might be 25 hours. You have to be present for half the races, more at lower levels, but thankfully never for endurance races. So while my PS3's done well over 400 hours of bspec (for a long stretch, 9 hour endurance race per night), I've only been present for 25. Then there's buying cars... You can just buy the cheapest $5000 kart over and over, but I actually built a collection of 1 of each car in the game (still missing 4-5). Very rough guess: grinding for money refreshing the used car dealership maybe took 40 hours, /- 10.
As for what's next... I've got Ferrari Challenge coming in the mail (almost got NFS: Shift, but Shift 2 is coming out soon). Then MLB the Show 11 and Yakuza 4. Also might finish Vanquish at some point. Anyone else getting MLB the Show 11 btw? I'd love to play online more, which is like the one thing I didn't do too much of in MLB the Show 09. |
Ferrari Challenge is quite easy for the most part, except for like 2-3 of the specific car tourneys, and getting through the longer overall tournaments. Like I said to my cousin, it's quite a challenge sometimes to get into 1st place, but it's not that bad to keep yourself in 1st place once obtained. It was quite a grind and I was getting bored of it quite a bit towards the end of the platinum.
