The last one I’ve been playing was Size Matters on the PSP. I like it. I need to rebuy the third game and Tools of Destruction.

I don’t want a long game just for the sake of it. Portal 2 was short, but it was a solid, really good game. Quest 64 is a game that took me many, many hours to beat, but it was pretty much just an endless cycle of walking and fighting enemies. Needless to say, I never plan to play that game ever again. I have so many better games to play now.

I’m not sure what R&C games you’ve played, but if you want to get back into the series, I’d say try the original trilogy on the PS2, and Tools of Destruction and a Crack in Time on the PS3. The others are either very short, a bit too different, or, as is the case with the handhelds, not very good. Up Your Arsenal and A Crack in Time are my favorites.

Devil May Cry 3 was one of the last games that really gave me a run for my money. A 20-40 hour game can feel like a drag if I’m just going through the motions. The Evil Within is a prime example. Run from point A to point B, silly cut scene.
Ratchet & Clank, I have always meant to get back into this series, but with so many games, I just got lost.

I’m currently in the middle of playing the remix of Kingdom Hearts 2, and while the game is great, and I love all the extras, I’m just getting rather overwhelmed. I’ve played 50 hours, and there is still so much to do! I think I need to take a break and play something else before I go crazy.

The Mass Effect series, as well as games such as Fallout 3 ruined my social life almost completely. There’s still a few in my collection that have still got the cellophane wrapping on, because I know they’re gonna be massively time consuming and I don’t have the time to commit to them right now, with work and stuff. Which relates to my other comment, this is why I love the Ratchet & Clank series, because it has a wonderful story and it’s really easy to pick up, even if you put the game down, play something else for a few weeks and then go back to it. And as always, has a relatively decent play time.

I guess this really led me to value long games that will keep me occupied until I can save enough money for a new game. I make exceptions, like with the case of Portal 2, which was totally worth it, despite it being shorter than most games I buy. But, I never got Journey, for example, because it is supposed to be short. I should at least watch a gameplay video of it on youtube, though. It looks interesting. Then, I might change my mind.

I have a bunch of un-played RPGs on the PS3, plus I recently got a new Wii U, which allows me to take a break from the RPGs and play some regular games. RPGs can suck the life out of me when I play them too much.

I never played Deadlocked because it didn’t look like a typical R&C game. I would definitely suggest getting A Crack in Time. That is my second favorite game, after Up Your Arsenal. I definitely prefer the games with stories. I wasn’t a fan of Full Frontal Assault, as the gameplay was changed too much, and there wasn’t much of a plot.

Yeah, I wish R&C was more popular. It’s one of my favorite series, and yet not many people seem to know about it.
