Is this the shortest game this gen ??? your thoughts please

 

 

I finished House of the Dead: Overkill in less than 2 1/2 hours and was drunk most of the time so I imagine you could finish it in shorter.

LAZY DEVS

 

It's not so much lazy devs but probably short development cycle.  Instead 8 hours of crap they give you 4 hours of good.  Do they at least have multiplayer to add to it a little?

 

 

4 hours of good? it got a 4.7 on the review

Portal?

Obv it came with several other games increasing the value but it could be finished in 3 hours (actually much less than that really, but many finished in 3 hours first go). So not a record but certainly very crappy for a single offering.

 

 

oh and portal was made by a group of students using the Hl engine as an university project later valve let then include the game in the OB, students not professional, so is ok it was kind of a series of bonus levels

 

Just to be clear, you do know that I wasn't attacking Portal right?

Portal is an amazing game and one of my favorites of the generation.  I pointed it out as a counterexample to the possibility of Terminator being a new game length record holder.  Portal probably isn't the shortest either honestly.

The last sentence "So not a record but certainly very crappy for a single offerring." was in reference to Terminator Salvation as indicated by at least 2 context clues.

fuck that..

I second that, sad thing is reviewers tend not to care how short games are, it makes their job easy and it will most likely sell well.

 

Heavenly Sword got a lot of heat for being fairly short. That's a shame, because it's a fantastic game.

@tbone
because he made a mistake :P

there is one trophy for each level. Nine levels. He must've forgot that there are two for completing the game at harder difficulties.
Still, NINE gold trophies is a huge amount. There are only normally 3-4 per game.

I'm only going off of what I've heard about the game, if you already know it's a bad game then why do you actually care?
