"Atention Starfox lifespan!"

Just read several reviews and found out that the game lasts around 20 hours. Not 4 or 80 but 20. I guess this is good because it took me longer than 4 hours to complete Luigi's Mansion.

Also some more notes:

Graphics 10/10
Music has both classic Starfox and new music.
Flying levels are too easy and very few.
So are the hover craft levels.
Handling not as good as OOT.
You only visit each level once for most of the game. So there's no going back to explore for more hidden stuff.
It's on one disc.
There's no multiplayer.
Doesn't live up to the hype very well.

For some, all this will be good news and for some bad but hope it helps you guys.

And to be honest I'd expect a mark in the 80's in NGC.

what the ???!!!

Thing is im sure ive heard about how luigis mansion and pikmin were made very quickly...an dim sure i heard mario only took a year or so.

so lets see 5 / 1 = 5 5 x 5 (just say it takes 5 to complete luigi) = 25 hours.


so 20 hours sounds about right to me.

But Ghost Killer, where did you read these several... 'reviews'?

And don't just say "from a reliable source" either, we won't PROOF!
REAL evidence, please!

If I don't see it then I don't believe it. :P


And when people often say it 'takes' a certain time to complete a game, that is very-often how long it takes to complete the game quickly, rather than by going through and collecting EVERYTHING.

Mario SunShine's probably only a 20 hour game - and you'll still have another 20-odd Shines to get too!

I will wait untill all of you people who have bought it to tell me the correct time it took you to finnish!

Luigi and Resi are small, but take a while the first time down to challenge.

Starfox is huge but you'll breeze through it apparently.
Hopefully they'll tone it up for the Pal release...

How can a game that's been in development for five plus years and spanning two discs have a short lifespan? Nintendo Of Japan have said that it has at least 80 hours!

I'll still get it.

It looks like fun.

It looks like fun.

I've played it, and it's genius.

Even if it does have a rather short lifespan, it's going to be a brilliant game once we've all got the PAL version. Brilliant stuff!

does it matter what they say? it'll probably end up much different here anyway
