I heard it was short, but not all that short? Have you played this thing all day long or is there a large lastability problem with the game?
I'd have the game done by Sunday had I not got all this Computing... the project is 40% of this year's modules, and I need to get a crack on with it!

DITTO! I'd get bored of it and prob would hardly play it if I finished it that quickly.
You may think its stupid trying to complete it in a day or 2, but I wont complete it any quicker than if I only spent 1 hour on it a day. Instead of being on it an hour and having a break. I'll try and play for about 8 or 9 hours in one day. With the X-Box coming on thursday MGS2 will be the last thing on my mind. If I dont complete it soon, it wont be for weeks until I return to it, and by then I would have forgotten what I was doing e.t.c. This happened with Final Fantasy 9 on the PS1. I had got 20 hours through it, then had tons of school work and some PS2 games. So I didnt get round to playing it for weeks and weeks. I then had forgotten where I was and what I was doing. So I have never completed Final Fantasy 9 as I didnt have the time to restart it.

I'm a massive games fan. As a result I want to play all the best games I can. Which means playing through them and then trading them (I have no job... got A levels).
However, you seem to think people like us RUSH the game... not the case. Fact is that games like this are so easy for people who are competent that if I tried to make the game last longer I'd have to make deliberate mistakes!
It's like saying "Let's make this 2 hour film last 10 hours"... you're just gonna get very frustrated!
