Reason to rent and not buy Terminator

[Noel Gallagher]

Sure, it looks good... but I just being watching the Gametrailers Review over on their site and they say it has NO MULTIPLAYER (but has Offline Split-screen co-op) and the story is on avarage "LESS" THAN 4 HOURS LONG

For £39.99? Sod that :/

Guess i'll cancel my pre-order and rent it, finish it, get the easy achievements

why on earth would anybody make a game with less than 4 hours gameplay in this day and age

 

[da_mic_1530]

without playing the game, that does sound a bit poor

Developed by GRIN who also did the terrible Wanted console game

TBH Wanted was alright, but I'm glad I didn't buy it! I finished it so quick!

I enjoyed Wanted - but when a game takes 2hours to complete on its hardest setting it becomes a bit of a joke...

Explain please

To hard or very easy hardsetting?

If it was too hard it would take longer then 2 hours to complete

 

[Noel Gallagher]

It was longer than 2 hours IMO, I played it never died and got through it pretty fast IMO and I did it in around 4-5 hours.

Edit: on about Wanted, not Terminator

 

[Metalface Mark]

I thought wanted was great, just the right length for my attention span.

Sounds like they needed to get it out in time for the movie so cut everything that wasn't finished :/

2hours19minutes was my play time on hard according to the board at the end!

It's just short

 

[Alex_6n2]

I agree Wanted was very short! I managed it second time round on hard in less than 3 hours. Gone are the days of Half Life

Maybe studios are trying to cut costs as much as possible by reducing development time?

 

[Noel Gallagher]

Wow, I must really suck then! :$

I've played games all my life too

Pfft Half Life could be completed over a weekend

Gone are the days of properly long games like Baldur's Gate and Deus Ex.

No poop. I've recently started playing Baldur's Gate 1 + 2 + expansions all merged together using a mod called tutu (which also allows BG1 to run under the BG2 engine). I've been playing for weeks now and i've barely scratched the surface of BG1. I imagine i'll have completed it all by Christmas.

I hate games that are REALLY long and take forever, I always lose intrest

10-20hours is win!

 

[Jamesdavid3]

ofcourse you RENT games before you BUY them....

Theres so many stupid people that pre-order games or buy them right away without even know the details behind them.

Im guessing most people that do that complete the game once and never really play it again, you could have done all that on renting it and saved you loads of money.

I find it depends on the game. A good FPS 9-13 hours is a good length

An action adventure/puzzle game like God of wars, Uncharted etc I like to last longer 10-20 hours

Then for RPGs I like these to be at lest 25+ hours nothing worse than getting into you game and toon then game ends

People love God Of War but I got fed up pretty fast. It just feels like Beowulf.
