When have people started to basically judge a game based on length alone?

Really... it depends on the game. For example... CoD or other shooter games... you can beat the single player in a matter of hours but yet you can play the online for countless hours provided you don't get bored of it. An RPG/ adventure game where a story is involved.. you tend to want more game hours out of it because no one spends $60 to plays a child's short story. A Racing game, you may be able to go through all the tracks in a matter of hours but then the playing and racing against other people over and over especially online can make it well worth it. It just depends on the game.

Spec Ops: The Line - Not great gameplay, pointless multiplayer, such a superb story. Generally people don't care the main story only takes about 6 hours because it's a great one.

Because most people got the gmae in an indie bundle for $2-3 >_>
