I've set a new minimum for Parasite Eve. My current run through the game took me 7 hours (well 6 hours and 53 minutes) being the first run through the game and not EX mode.

Also my average times for Pokemon White (main story) = 45 hours and Pokemon Black = 32 hours, but White will have a much longer maximum time, given that i'm currently on the 170 hour mark, going for full pokedex completion.

Why does White have a longer completion time? Aren't they the exact same game with different legendaries?

I ask as a long time Pokemon fan, and owner of Pokemon Black.

Mostly because I did White first and I was more prepared when I started Black (knowing better which team to build and planning ahead for gym leaders).

Oh I see, but do you think it's fair to give different completion times for both games? They are after all nearly identical games. I would just prefer the average game length listed for both games to be 45 hours plus 32 hours, plus all other recorded completion times.

That way people don't think one game is longer then the other.
