Ya, first time through RE can take a while. It would be even longer if he never played it on PSX. It's possible to beat in 1.5 hours though, if you're good enough.
Originally posted by DeathsHand Ummm yeah... I doubt you beat it in 3 - 5 hours on your first time through... It took me like 13 hours or something my first time through... though to be fair, I was taking my time and I also liked walking areas... I dunno why... I guess it was just the atmosphere of the game and the way the characters look when they walked (especially while holding a handgun)... When there are a bunch of monsters lurking around, I doubt they'd be so wreckless and running everywhere around corners and such... but I guess I'm just weird, I thought it looked neat...
Anyways enough of my pointless rant, RE is pretty short though... And like Gekko said, the last disc contains the very end of the game... probably an hour tops your first time through... unless you're very slow... but if you're playing it a second time and you're trying to go fast, it could take you as short as like 15 minutes to get through...
i beat RE1 in 7 hours my first time on normal mode with Chris, and i didnt use a guide once for help, nor did i rush through it. its a very easy and short game

I'm in the mines, how much longer will it take?? Like how many % have I had??? I wanna beat it before I start with TS2.
Your very close to getting into the Lab. The only reason for going into the mines is to get that other medallion piece so you can open the gate in the mansion.
