I dont know anything about skyrim.But if it is anywhere near to oblivion(dont know if you have finished it).

Then it should take more than 30 hrs min.
It took me more than 20+ hrs to finish the main story with some side missions.still some side missions are left.

You wont even be able to play some side quests until you have levelled up to the desired one and the side quests were more interesting than the main story in oblivion.But leveling up was painful in that game.

Nope, haven't played Oblivion since I wasn't much into RPG titles when the game had released back then. Missed out the complete Dragon Age series similarly. But it can be played later, which is a completely different thing. It might have taken me close to 25 hours to beat Witcher 2 (and maybe DX3?) as well but the fact is I was able to devote close to 4~5 hours a day at a stretch. And thus, was able to complete the game quickly. Q4 is here with a whole boatload of titles and as such the backlogs were piling up. Had to clear the newer titles as fast as I could.

I am done with the OT here. Sincere apologies! :ashamed:
 
What are we running out here? A gaming marathon? Relax peeps! It's not a competition. So just enjoy your games. :P

Back on topic, the Joker trailer just broke the hype meter. I'd be damned if this game were to be short.

You didnt get it.What i mean is witcher series and dx are rpgs alright.But this is kind of hardcore RPG.I have seen people spending 100+ hrs on these(add fallout 3) games.
There is nothing wrong in finishing early as reviewers do this job frequently. Playing at a stretch is up to you if you dont get bored and can manage it then its ok.
 
Due to some reason the hype meter has died for arkham city and rage but since geow3 is out now they will benefit now

Speak for yourself. I'm still waiting for this game, even more the UC3. :P
 
Now geow 3 is out the hype will go up considering the crazy no of gadgets added making the count to 12 it would be awesome.

You've got to be kidding me! Most folks are eagerly looking forward to play Arkham City and Rage as much as they want to do for Skyrim or Assassin's Creed: Revelations or Uncharted 3.

I wonder what was that 'some reason' you are talking about here. Are you referring to those VG sites not posting any news with regard to these titles?
 
One of the reason being all of the news coming for Arkham City does not stay much longer if you see around lots of gaming forums people seems to be forgetting about it after watching the newly released trailer.Hoping the developers release some new gameplay videos probably first 20 mins of the game and yeah I'm highly excited for this title since who doesn't wants to be a superhero in a video game :batman:
 
LOL seriously I might be the craziest fan of Assassin's Creed Series even my User ID belongs to one of the greatest Assassins :bleh: but i soo want to play Arkham City and Rage man.! :)
 
Rocksteady: PC Batman "worth the wait"

Rocksteady has promised gamers that the recently-delayed PC version of upcoming action game Batman: Arkham City will be worth the wait.

Last week publisher Warner Bros. announced that the PC version will release in November, with the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 versions still on track for a 21st October launch.

While Rocksteady co-owner and Batman game director Sefton Hill was unable to offer an explanation for the delay when quizzed by Eurogamer at the Eurogamer Expo today, he said PC gamers shouldn't be too upset - the delay amounts to only a couple of weeks, and, if they have a high-end PC, they'll enjoy better visuals than their console gaming brethren will.

"We're really aware of all the different SKUs," Hill said. "What's great for us is we have gamers who are real console gamers and gamers who are PC gamers. I guess, generally, I would consider myself more of a console gamer. I do play more of my games on console. But then we have people in the office who are really hardcore PC players, and they will always pull me up and say, we need to sort this out, we need to sort that out."

The PC version of the first Batman game won praise from fans - and it sounds like the second game, which recently went gold, will also please PC gamers.

"We got a lot of credit on the first one, about how well it played on the PC, and how well-refined the controls were," Sefton said. "It's because part of our attitude is always to listen to those people. We want to make the best game we can for all SKUs."

So, what can PC gamers expect from Batman: Arkham City?

"It's something we're aware of," Hill explained. "If you do have a super powerful high-end PC, you are going to see higher detail textures. You are going to see a more richly realised world. But having said that, given there are so many console gamers in there, we're always fine-tuning to get the game to run super smooth on Xbox and PS3. The console versions look great as well.

"All of the source textures and assets are done at a very very high res and we make them work on all the different SKUs. People will really love the PC version when it comes out.

"The wait will definitely be worth it. The PC version has just been pushed back, but it's only by a couple of weeks, so hopefully no-one will be too upset about it. We're working as hard as we can to get it out as soon as we can."
