I hope so man, I pre ordered it for PS4. The case art is awesome so that's why I went physical.

I've watched a couple of streams on twitch before they got axed and it looked good.

Yeah that's a speed run though. I hear if you do all the shite there's to do it lasts 12, my guess is an average play through will be 6-8 hours.

This still sounds more like a dlc than a full game to me.

I'm not sure I can justify spending half of the normal price for a quarter of a game, when Infamous releases the same day.

Holding off until infamous is completed and re-weighing my options then is probably my best bet.

Yeah I would get Infamous over this if I had to choose. I'm getting both buy you're right, Second Son is on a different level.

I've seen some screen captures of Second Son the last couple of days and the world is absolutely breathtaking.

There's more content than just 2 hours, but it's meant to be a prequel and is priced accordingly.

Unless it turns out to be longer than reported I'm either waiting for this one to drop further in price or I'll rent it on RedBox.

Screw paying $30-40 for a 2 hour game.

I have it coming via Gamefly.

Game is supposed to be gorgeous on PS4.

As graphics have gotten better, games have gotten shorter.

Hmm, wonder where all the development cost and time has gone.

Pretty awesome from what I've played. The graphics are great, and the gameplay is fun. I just got the neon power and the traversal is a lot better with that, although in general the game has a lot better movement than the first 2. It's pretty easy to make precise shots. The story, cutscenes, and voicing is also a lot better than in the first 2. The facial animations are pretty ridiculous.

Thanks, that's just what I wanted to hear.

Hopefully my copy comes early from Amazon, should have bought off Ebay.

I think it has more to do with a focus on multiplayer, but this game has no multiplayer so I don't know.

This isn't the full fledged MGS, that's the Phantom Pain. Ground Zeroes is a prologue for it(the reason it is $30 instead of $60).
