I could do without the fluff most games throw in to extend the length. But wasn't this supposed to be an open-world game? In that case the length would be infinite, like GTA4.

Either way, I can't wait for this game.

There was no mention of how long the game is. He only said that developers should not throw a bunch of garbage into a game just to make it long.

i got that they're packing alot into the game but focusing on fun rather than artificially lengthening the game. that sounds fun to me

I don't know.... First Mirror's Edge (about 5 to 6 hours) and now InFamous? Come on!!! I'm tired to pay full price for 6 hours of fun.

Keep the focus on the fun, but make it at least 15 to 16 Hours and we have a deal.

See GTA. Open world, 30 hours, repetitive missions, too much driving, not enough guns. No fun.

Gta was 30hours of too much driving, i agree Packfan. And i also agree with you Rodz, Uncharted was about 8hours and Ratchet and Clank was about 10, we PAY 60bucks for 5hours of games? Wow, we're paying for quality but i don't even OWN an hdtv to SEE all of the sopposed 'quality'

As long as there is at least 10 hrs of gameplay including different stroylines ( as to the choices made in game) and different ending i will be happy. But please for the love of god no online mulitplayer , co-op maybe.

Considering this game is a sandbox game, you can stretch the gameplay a lot farther.

Besides game reviewers, who actually played all the GTA:IV missions one after another without joyriding, running over asians and wasting time.

I bet between missions in Infamous I'll find time to throw cars at asians.

ouch! what's with the asain hate mate? j/k i've been there and done that FOR hours. yeah GTA4 was good but you guys have it nailed down that it was a lil repetitive after a few hours of what felt like i was doing the same thing. i hope Infamous learns from their mistakes and can supply us with an awesome PS3 exclusive title. I'm really looking forward to this one next year but Imma keep my fingers crossed that its more than 10 hours of sheer gameplay. The comic style cutscenes are the bomb by the way.

peace,
Lh

Online and offline Co-op are a must these days. I wanna play with my friends! Multiplayer would be cool if there was more then just electric powers and you were limited to a single type(No Superman or Martian Manhunter types) like fire, water, air, earth, electric, fast, strong.

I hope it's 8-12 hours, casue if it's longer it means that it'll be repetitive like DMC 4. if sucker-punck will give me 8 hours of continuous fun and non-repetitive levels then i'm absolutely fine with it.
quality >>>>>>>quantity
sucker-punck FTW ;)

This site is full of xbot trolls.

Gears of War 1 and 1.1 (called 2) are approximately 5-6 hours long and nobody complains.

A PS3 game is 10-12 hours long and all complain.

Pathetic.

I'm to the point, where I don't even want to pay full price for single player games anymore. This game has single player campaign and no online modes what so ever. So once the 5 to 6 hours is done, that's it... there's nothing else to do. You take a game like resistance 2, once you finish with the campaign (which was pretty long) then you go on to the online co-op, finish that, and you still have the online competitive matches to compete in. That's a 60 dollar game. A 5 - to 6 hour game - single player.. that's worth nothing, but a rental. These devs, should NOT be coming out talking about the game is not about LENGTH that's a big mistake and its going to cost them game sales in the end. Ask Nintendo about that "quality vs quantity" theory and how well it worked for them in the 64 era.

I thought inFamous was about screwing over those of us waiting for SuckerPunch to make another Sly game.

"striving for not just length in the upcoming superhero sandbox title"

Ladies and gents, I would like you to draw your attention to this statement's key words. Those key words are NOT JUST. That means they are going for multiple goals, and length is one of them, but not the only one of them.
Misleading headlines are misleading, eh?

If a game is single player only, I'd like it to be be at least 10-20 hours. Anything less then that is too short for $60.
I would much rather a game like this be 10 hours and not repetitive then a game like GTA4 that had very similar missions, over and over again.
People complain about games taking forever to come out... look how long it's taking developers to make games that are 8 hours or 10 hours... if they made a game that was 20 hours single player campaign and then multiplayer modes, it would take them twice as long.
R2 was great, the single player was about 10 hours, I just started playing the coop and multi which are a lot of fun.
