    According to him, the main quest will be about 20-30 hours without doing anything else.

    Bioshock was only 15-20hours at most . 70Hours is amazing though, my Mass Effect game save was arround 50hours after 2 playthroughs and my Lost Odyssey around 60-65hours after 1 playthrough.

    Think my Oblivion was roughly 50 because alot of the Side Quests got very repetitive, Hopefully it aint the same here.

    You've clearly never wasted entire days on Oblivion/Mass Effect. I envy you that.

    I'm really hopeful about Fallout 3. Bethesda seem to have learned from their mistakes (eg People having conversations with themselves.) and maintained the awesome things (eg the scope).

    It was a producers file so obviously he could have just left the clock running to make it. Im just saying is all

    Also, I finished my first playthrough of DQ8 last week, took me 90 hours easy.

    When you dont know what ur doing etc

    I really want this to be good, but i'm sure i'll be disapointed.

    28/29 Hours? There was what around 8 different locations in rapture so thats roughly 3 and a half hours on each level. No way it was that long. I mean it was pants easy even on the Hard difficulty.

    Just wanted to mention this good blog post on what DIDN'T get mentioned at E3, there are quite a few games on that list I was really expected to at least have teasers for, like Alan Wake or Tekken 6... also no mention whatsoever of Project Offset which appears to of dropped off the face of the planet.

    Not surprised that Wipeout HD wasn't featured though, what with it being able to give all the audience an epileptic fit

    Question, When do the E3 judging panel usually announce the GOTS and other awards?

    Not sure when exactly. But IGN (Fallout 3), G4 (LittleBigPlanet) and 1up (LittleBigPlanet) have given out their awards so far. Gametrailers has also started giving its awards, but has announced their Best of Show yet.

    Resi 5 looks amazing but no way should it have been given GOTS.

    My nominees would have been
    Gears 2
    Resistance 2
    Far Cry 2
    LBP
    Fable 2
    Resi 5
    Fallout 3

    And the winner .........
    Fat Princess of Course :pac:


    EDIT: Just watched the videos there, Jesus Geoff and the rest of the Gametrailers staff must be dying to have Resi 5s babies.

    I remember in Morrowind travelling was always annoying until you found the 'Boots of Blinding Speed'
