Sounds great. I didn't expect it to span over 2 disks!:eek: But that just makes it better. I guess a rent won't do me with 80+ hours of gameplay:eek:

That's 80+ hours while tiptoeing everywhere and checking every space on the wall and every item in a room leaving no space unexplored. The two discs thing is good though.


Anyway...


I didn't see this news anywhere on GT's main page... :hmm:

They may be overestimating it like most developers usually do. But I think it's still a lot of time for a video game. Considering most games can be completed (completely completed) in less than 20 hours.

Lol, now I'm thinking of Morrowind and how that game is so freaking long.

To summarize my thoughts on this subject. I turn it over to Mr. Vince McMahon.

"There is no chance in hell of you getting StarFox Adventure early."

Hmm ok thank you Mr.McMahon.
Anyhow, I think Nintendo releasing StarFox and Mario within a month of each other is cutting it too close for them so moving it up seems very unlikely, but who knows.

Well if the 80+ hours is true...that would be awesome...although I doubt it...

Better start mowing lawns people. You know the rules: Double the disc, double the money, yep, that'll be $80 please. :D

80 hours, 2 discs, 3 blocks of memory. Not bad. Probably not entirely true, but still not bad.

First of all double the money would be $100... second, even though I think you're joking, I'm going to mention Resident Evil being 2 discs... and costing 50... why am I gonna mention that? Well I'm glad I asked myself that...

Cuz RE is 2 discs and it's still not very long :p

Just pointing out that 2 discs doesn't make a game AMAZINGLY HUGE!... But I'm sure SFA will be longer than the 10-12 hours that RE takes the first time through :D

The only reason RE was on 2 disks because of those space hogging FMV's :p.

All the cutscenes in SFA are realtime.

There are people saying that the 2 disk story isn't true, so, we'll just have to wait and see :D.

Although the game may not be 80 hours, I'm sill betting on it being very long, just like all other Rare games :D. Plus the fact that it has multiplayer, that should add replay value I guess.

OMG! Rareware is finished with Star Fox Adventures! So they aren't doing any more games with Nintendo mascots, so they have no obligation to Nintendo any more. They're going third party! :eek:
