What are you playing?

If you have a PC that can run the games, the first two are also on Steam! They usually go really cheap now in the sales. :) I've also seen them frequently in the preowned section of GAME.

(Everyone should play Mass Effect - it's one of my favourite series.)

Mass Effect 3. It's so lonnnnng yet so goooood.

In my opinion, if the game is good, being long is actually a pro XD

I think it depends on how long. I can deal with spending two months on a single game, but there are some that I realized that I'm not even halfway in and I've been dedicating one hour each day to this game for the last FIVE MONTHS!!! D: And yeah, that means it's a lot of content and I'm getting a lot out of my money...but it also means that by the end of the game I've forgotten the events from the beginning ;_;

It's probably that I'm used to play extremely long games, and most of those that come out nowadays seem to me very short in comparison. I don't mind taking months to finish them, mostly because I tend to play multiple stuff at the same time, so I switch between them according to my mood and don't get bored.

Oh, don't get me wrong, I loooove long games if they execute it well. For instance, Devil May Cry 3. While I did get distracted (passive ADD), I still enjoyed it. I always read a walkthrough for that one, and ME3 and DA series since I know I may forget something or it doesn't cross my mind. /ramble

I have taken breaks from a game for several reasons, one being got a bit bored and wanted something new, two being another game grasped my attention, and three anime. It's strange how I take in some things and remember some key parts and can be slow remembering the rest. I sound like a robot XD

LOL games for me are always LOOONG because I am an inept at playing them

AND omfg I need to put my hands on masseffect1,2,3 for ps3 BUT CAN'T SEEM TO FIND IT!!!!! - found 2 and 3 but not 1 LOL

Games are usually long for me because I GRIND TOO MUCH. /looks at FFX characters with their independent sphere grids fully filled out before the halfway point of the game.

Games are usually long for me because of my crippling fear of failure stopping me from playing altogether :(

What would you consider long games, as examples? I'd call 60-70 hours to get to the end of a main storyline a game on the long side, for example.

90-110 hours, including me getting sidetracked by side-quests.
...which happens EVERY SINGLE TIME since I tend to go into Perfectionist Mode while I play and whenever I see a side-quest I go "I NEED TO FINISH YOU BEFORE I CAN CONTINUE WITH THE MAIN QUEST, I DON'T CARE HOW MANY MONTHS IT TAKES *___*"
(At this point, it's fairly safe to say that "long games" are probably only western RPGs in my head XD)

I consider anything under 60 hours of gameplay to be short.
