Hey Benny I don't really understand this comment? I will try to answer as best I can read it.

The point of Drake's fortune is that in those 8 hours (most of which is pure gameplay, maybe only 15mins of cut-scenes at most) the game achieves greater and more engaging heights than some games that last much much longer.

I really can't express how much I enjoyed this game; everything just feels right about it; the story feels complete without becoming preachy, all elements that are in this game feel like they should be there and not just something they tacked on and just in general the whole thing looks really good.

Also if you think about it a lot of these types of games are this short now:

CoD 4: 6-8 hours
TR Legends: 8-12 hours
Gears of war: 6-8 hours
Assassin's creed: 8-12 hours
Dark sector: 6-8 hours
Halo 3: 6-8 hours (in fact all halo games)

(to name but a few)


Wii Code: 2904 6383 4592 3435

Super Smash Bros Brawl FC:- 4425-1795-0166

Mario Kart Wii FC:- 1719-3360-9001

I have had to deal with a major family issue hence the lack of online again :\ (it's all to do with my sister's theft if anyone remembers from before)

Also compared to old games on past consoles, hands up who can complete mario in less than an hour and yet one of best games ever.
A short time span for games is irrelavant its the playin/playtime in them that counts

Yeah, for me it remains one of the top five reasons to own a PS3 and now with trophy support and available for £20 sheets everywhere as a platinum game it's great value. it might not be the longest campaign you'll play but the quality is really high for graphics, gameplay mechanics, voice acting and nearly everything else. A good online element would have made it the perfect package but you can't have everything.

I heard Naughty dog were well into the sequel the other day(just a guy on a forum but he's usually really accurate-I'd love to know what his job is!)and that it could be out before next autumn-has anyone else heard anything?
