Its not just Wii, XBox owners have complained that games like BioShock and Halo 3 are too short too.

I think Nintendo announced WAY BACK that they were going to make 1 last zelda game! THE LAST ONE! Not sure if this was false info but that's what i heard. I'll look for a link just give me a while. Alot of searching needs to be done.

THey can't just stop making Zelda games... It's been making them for 20 years or something already!

0.o wtf, at least most wii games aren't that short. . . I guess your paying for the online though. . . but you have to pay for online anyway!

well I'm sure your cousin is an above average gamer but still, games are way to short theses days.

I personally would not pay $60-$120 for a really short game with great online + the cost of online, another $60.

Heavenly Sword for the PS3 is reportedly only 8-10 hours long.

A lot of games nowadays seem to be very short. I thought MP3 was too short with an average completion time of between 12-20 hours (took me 16)but i will replay it after a couple of weeks. Halo 3 is supposed to have an average completion time of 6 hours which is horrible for a $70 game although the multiplayer will keep people busy for ages. Likewise Bioshock (around 10-15 hours) and Heavenly Sword (reportedly 6 hours) are far too short for what you pay for them.

I rate The Godfather very highly on the Wii despite it not being as flashy as those games because it can offer up to 40 hours of gameplay (with great controls too). I paid $40 for it so at $1 an hour of gameplay i think it was great value.

Quality games are great but not if you can complete them in an afternoon.
