hehe wasnt suggesting you were fibbing Andy lol....was just shocked...
Interesting how a story and visuals can change a games 'status'. Going back to MW2....it was slated to high hell; for being so short (around 12 hours iirc) but to be fair to it, it has the MP aspect for longevity, but goven its price tag (espeically on the consoles) 12 hours etertainment is pants for £40+...
So was very suprised to hear your estimate....(and I'm not bashing, I do fancy playing it, and just found out next doors grandson got it today so might have to invade his house for a play through lmao)...was just shocked that this has less longevity, less time to play yet has received shining endorsements....I really hope this is not the way games are going to go, im all for flash and visuals and storyline, but not at the expense of 'actual entertainment' if you follow what I mean 
As I think I said in one of my previous posts it is about 8-10 hours, BUT there is major replayability with it if you want to explore a lot of the possibilities in it.
You would definitly need more than a few days to do this (simply because your mind will most likely be blown out after the first playthrough anyway

)
Put it this way, there is 7 'official' endings that need to be got for one of the achievements BUT... I believe these are only truly recorded if you do specific things throughout the game, which basically means you can seriously come out with a whole lot more varied endings.
I've read a guide today listing the endings and I know I haven't got one of the 'official' ones. Am not bothered about the achievement but I am going to go through the game again and make some different choices. I won't even bother looking at that guide again because I'll probably then feel compelled to try getting the 7 official endings hehe.
Edit: One of my ME2 playthroughs looks like it'll be waiting a while before I get round to finishing it as I really want Kasumi as part of my Suicide Mission team rather than tacked on post-end mission. As it is a 'Woman Power' femshep playthrough where the only guy living will be Mordin (got to have a good scientist on board). Also it means won't be redoing my first playthrough till she is around.
I don't get why they haven't confirmed/denied her position yet. If she isn't in, then why not just say so, if she is in, it'd be nice to have an idea of when they expect to add her.
Pondering which playthrough to tackle next. Might reload the one I finished last night back before the IFF and see if I can get Jack to live this time by getting more upgrades for the team pre-IFF. I really enjoyed playing Vanguard.
