Aliens:Colonial Marines campaign length revealed..
Randy confirmed yesterday that the campaign in Gearbox's new title Aliens:Colonial Marines, will only be roughly 8-10 long give or take. He said there's "meta goals" for multiple playthroughs, but really, with that short of a campaign what really is there to experience in multiple playthroughs? This isn't some arcade title, but a full $60 title. With Gearbox's recent let down regarding the Borderlands 2 season pass dlc so far, the new $15 skin pack released today, and this info, it makes me wonder what's going on with Gearbox.
But multiplayer will probably give 60-100 hours of enjoyment. Also I imagine Sega has had a lot of input and push to keep this game accessible to the masses rather than a true for the fans tribute to aliens for more financial gains.
I have this pre-ordered but maybe I will wait. Perhaps I am 202Pay $60.00 for short games, anymore. Everything at gamestop goes to $40.00 around Dec. 25th, even new in October AAA titles. Well, I like my cheevos, 100% completion and multplayer ain't my favorite way to pass the time. Hmmm....Bioshock 3 is looking better.
That's why i'm passing on bioshock, no multiplayer. I can play it anytime so i'll wait until the summer when there's a gaming drought and it'll no doubt be on sale for 40 bucks.
