12 hours is far too short for a modern game.

This. A modern game needs about 40 hours really.

You very rarely see it outside of Nintendo games. It's just the modern way. With the advent of DLC, games makers are holding back content for later release. It causes short and often buggy games to be the popular way of doing things.

 

[Барбоса]

And, Barbosa, 12 hours is more than average these days for a game that isn't a RPG. All of the Call of Duty and Halo campaigns are 8 hours with all the extras included.

And it is an absolute fucking travesty.

And this is why I have never and probably will never buy a Playstation or an Xbox. Their best games are better on the PC anyway.

at least. but 40 plus hours would be much better then what we are getting.

3 days until Zelda limited edition 3DS...cant wait, I've missed that bloody console.

Why did you get rid of it the first time?

Oh, and where's the roundtable thing on NintendoLee.com?

 

[Lee]

1) I lost my job so had to sell it to pay for my rent.

2) the one with you in will be up later on this evening or maybe tomorrow. There's one up featuring SOM, Deexter and Ty.

1) I lost my job so had to sell it to pay for my rent.

OK, fair enough reason. Shame you ended up not getting the Ambassador program (if it was in Europe). 20 free games is awesome. As is a free version of Four Swords.

2) the one with you in will be up later on this evening or maybe tomorrow. There's one up featuring SOM, Deexter and Ty.

OK, last I saw there wasn't any of them up yet.

 

[Lee]

I put up one lot last night UK time.

Yeah I bought Pokemon RUmble today as it was half price and I'll be getting star fox, mario kart and mario 3d land.

 

[Stormtrooper]

I put up one lot last night UK time.

Good reason I missed it. I will check it out later/tomorrow.

Yeah I bought Pokemon RUmble today as it was half price and I'll be getting star fox, mario kart and mario 3d land.

And Zelda OoT3D, I assume, since you're getting the Zelda 3DS bundle? Mario Kart is awesome. Yet to play the others.

 

[Lee]

Yeah I'll be getting it but I've already finished it so I won't be playing it.

 

[Барбоса]

Really regretting not getting Xenoblade when it was cheap.

 

[Lee]

Yeah 9.99 is a steal. I really need to finish that game off.

 

[Барбоса]

I do still have yet to play No More heroes, Mad World, Goldeneye or Mario and Sonic

 

[Lee]

Madworld's shit.

 

[Stormtrooper]

Барбоса, are you talking out the new Goldeneye for Wii/360/PS3? I would suggest that first.

And Madworld is worth 1 play session of no more then an hour before it gets old and boring and shit.

 

[Lee]

Yeah madworld I've seen for £2 in places. Do you have it barbossa?

 

[Барбоса]

Yeah madworld I've seen for £2 in places. Do you have it barbossa?

Yeah, I do. Paid £2 for it about a year ago and still have yet to open it. Same goes with No More Heroes. As for Goldeneye, not sure why I have yet to play it. I even have an epically good Wii-gun to play it with.

Bought Tournament of Legends for £3 in ASDA last week. It is meant to be awful - one review suggested it was an "insult" - but I like a bit of mindless beating up every now and then. Haven't played it yet either.

Xenoblade is down to £23 on Amazon. Tempted.

 

[Lee]

Worth it, nintendo published games rarely drop in price.

 

[The Doctor]

I still haven't played MadWorld. If I can get it for that cheap though I might pick it up.

No More Heroes is brilliant.

So after I finished up Deus Ex again, I decided to play the first sequel, Invisible War. Enjoyed it immensely and was about half-way through it before the game suddenly stopped working for me, crashing everytime I try to launch it. I'll have to figure out some kind of way to fix this because I really was into that game, but shit, now my progress is all gone. Oh well, it's not a long game, I can go through it again.

Got impatient trying to find a working version of IW so then I decided to download the original Half-Life, which I haven't played in years. For some reason the game's level designs always reminded me of Duke Nukem 3D.

I need a good stealth kind of game similar to Deus Ex, anyone have any suggestions?

 

[Lee]

I'll see what I can dig up X.

Today I've bought:

Limited Edition Zelda 3DS with OOT 3D
Tetris 3DS
Shinobi
Super Mario 3D Land
Mario Kart 7.

Not gonna lie - I feel emasculated.

System Shock 2.

And to a lesser extent, Splinter Cell & Metal Gear.
