i think anything of the same thing for too long means you get bored eg if you played football everyday for a a month you would get bored same with games and basically everything you need variety to keep you interested.

Sean, no I haven’t, although it’s always worth mentioning roughly how long and how repayable a game is as both of these factors make a difference to value for money. As you say, optimum length varies from game to game, and depends largely on how much the game really has to offer.

I’m usually the same. Until recently I’ve had four games on the go. Surprisingly, two of these are games I like, Yakuza 3 and Killzone 2.
I decided to change that this week so I’m completing all my games from now until when the big hitters come to town – I don’t have long to finish the remaining two – BFBC2 (which I’m halfway through) and Resistance 2 (which I haven’t started).
Finishing Yakuza and Killzone was very satisfying though

Then surely not all short games should get such stick for being short, if for some it is a better thing. I wonder if you have slated games that are too short. Where for you it would be more preferable wouldn’t it?

I got bored of Modern Warfare 2s multiplayer after a week.
Say what you like, it makes no difference. Modern Warfare 2 still has the worst multiplayer off all time.

I suffer from the same short attention span with games. I also think I’m worried about finishing what is a lovely experience.
And utterly fed up of watching my husband play the same game over and over. Thinking of hiding the disc.
