It wont be.

The hype machine that is Killzone 2 will steamroll it.


Hehehe.  Good one.

I might actually have bought it if you said Resistance 2 or Gears of War 2. 



starcraft - Playing Games = FUN, Talking about Games = SERIOUS

Around the Network

I think the main missions will take about 40 hours with another 40 hours for the side missions. And then another 100 hours for just free roaming and dicking around, and yet another 100 hours for the online modes. I wouldn't worry, Starcraft, this game will last for years!



  

All I can say is for all the hype and all the great reviews everyone will want as much GTA as they can get, and I'm sure the DLC can only help Microsoft. As for the time to complete, Well it really doesn't matter as long as that time is good. Because if its really good your mouth will be soon watering for more and thats where the DLC would come in.



"Back off, man. I'm a scientist."

Your theories are the worst kind of popular tripe, your methods are sloppy, and your conclusions are highly questionable! You are a poor scientist. Especially if you think the moon landing was faked.

This is why I shut down 99% of sony fanboys who say KZ2 will be a AAA title (the other 1% actually make semi-legitimate claims). They think KZ2 will not only be the definitive FPS ever, they seem to believe that it'll be in the company of OOT, Halo 2, Half-Life, Chrono Trigger and Super Mario 64 (aka a small portion of the pinnacle of gaming). It won't, The developers aren't exactly proven successes with a hit miss ratio of 50%, and the miss out of the 2 games in the series thus far happens to be the FPS. PS3 fanboys believe PS3 will win based on history (that the ps2 won last gen), except they won't accept the fact that the same history says that FPS KZ is not that great.

Also, the hype machine of Killzone 2? What hype? it's died down over the last half year because people are starting to realise what happened with Lair, Motorstorm and HS might happen to KZ2. It'll be a good game, heck maybe a great game, but people are saying that it'll be a guaranteed AAA, if it even misses just by a little bit, it'll be panned by microsoft and ninty fanboy/girls alike.

Don't worry starcraft, I've got your back :) (If only because of the sheer number of PS3 fanboys compared to MS ones here).

 Which is what the dlc will be trying to expand upon.

@ Calamity

Me and Starcraft are cool. He knows that was a joke... lulz.

That's why he said 'good one'

I know this because Rockstar have said so.

"I think the mission packs with the episodes are going to be pretty deep, offering another full-on adventure in this world," he told Edge. "I think we will be in a position to market them not a million miles away from the way the boxed game is marketed."Rockstar boss Sam Houser said this.

By the time we figure out what DLC is, PS3 owners will be knee deep in MGS4, or the LBP beta.

Whilst 360 owners will be desperately deciding whether to play Infinite Undiscovery (no set release date whatsoever), Too Human (whoa, bring out the grape jam!)  or Ninja Gaiden 2 (which will be passed in sales by Kung Fu Panda, releaseing around the same time!).

 

Cmon, you're going to have to come up with better games than that. I'm sure they'll all be good, but nowhere close to Metal Gear Solid or LittleBigPlanet.

I mean, if that's the best Microsoft has to compete with, they're screwed 'til Gears 2 arrives.

Ooh, be careful not to get your panties in a twist. It can result in an awful nasty rash.
