Today I was struck by a notion. A particularly powerful notion, rather uncommonly potent for something of this sort: why aren’t there any two-hour games?
I know, I know. The answer seems obvious enough. Nobody likes short games, right? Especially now, with the whole global economy in such a rut. If we’re to shell out $50 or $60 USD for a new title, we want to garner more than five or six hour enjoyment, right?
Of course we do. We all want to get our money’s worth, and the only truly quantifiable means we have to measure that is with the number of hours we spend with a game. I can browse through my PS3′s memory and handily see that while I’ve invested a whopping 73 hours into Armored Core: For Answer, I’ve barely soaked 8 hours into Dynasty Warriors: Gundam 2. Clearly, AC4A is the better giant-robot brawler–it’s the obvious conclusion. But this way of thinking is a fallacy, one I’ve willingly bought into for years–and I know I’m not alone.
But the gaming industry has come a long way in the past decade. Everyone, developer and gamer alike, see gaming as mainstream. It’s an art, now. It produces summer blockbusters just as well (or better than) Hollywood. Almost every time you read a developer interview, someone drops a quote about how modern games are becoming so much more like movies.
They’ve got the action, they’ve got the characters and, boy-oh-boy, they’ve got the audience. Recent polls suggest that more than 50% of the adult population in the United States consider themselves gamers. That’s roughly the same proportion of adult Americans who fell out of their homes to vote in the 2008 presidential elections.*
So if that’s true, and games are becoming more like movies, why aren’t they short like movies? The typical format of almost any game follows the same basic pattern: kill stuff, watch a cut-scene, and repeat. We can groan with disappointment that Uncharted took us only 8 hours to beat, but what if you were watching those same 8 hours play out in a theater? I’d walk out. Movies have two-hour lengths for a reason: people have short attention spans. If games are to be more like movies, let’s start with cutting down the length, a lot.
Here’s my bold new vision for the future of gaming: make the games really, really short. Allow us gamers to move from opening titles to credits in one, easy sitting. I’d love to be able to start and finish a game in the few hours I have each morning before class. And give us more control! Interactivity is the biggest (read: sole) selling point of games, and to continue with the movie analogy, why not let us manipulate more than just the action scenes.
Imagine a game with a truly branching storyline, where you control every action the protagonist takes. He or She could be a hero, or a villain–even a victim. The story could play out dozens, or hundreds of ways. Imagine watching a movie where you could decide exactly what the protagonist does (or says) at every opportunity? Give us choices and consequences with the gameplay. What I’m talking here is the kind of freedom in games we’ve been promised for years, but never actually seen.
Mass Effect promised us choices, but neglected to give those choices any real consequences. Fallout 3 promised moral ambiguity and sufficient choices to effect hundreds of alternate endings, yet delivered a system whereby we were awarded points for every evil act or good deed, drenching the entire affair in moral absolutism–and delivered one of the worst, most poorly-conceived endings in gaming history (oh, yeah, right up there with Suikoden IV). So what’s wrong? What’s keeping these games from truly becoming interactive films?
Oh, yeah–it’s the runtime. The reason games don’t have long, fully-branched storylines is, simply, that there’s too much to script. When gamers demand at least 12 hours out of the average game–and at least three times that number for an RPG–the costs involved in making a truly compelling tale where player choice has any noticeable effect is all but impossible.
But what if those twelve hours become two? Uncharted could have been four different games–each as long as a movie–with the same amount of work that went one 8-hour experience. Imagine starting up an RPG where you can save the world, destroy the world, or simply try to survive it–and imagine seeing a fully fleshed-out, scripted story no matter which path you take. I’ve got goosebumps already, I do.
Developers simply need to stop fixating on game-lengths. And gamers, we need to bloody-well stop demanding it of them. The hundred-hour game is a relic of the past, and if gaming is ever to evolve, it’ll need to move past such temporal concerns. Isn’t the industry sufficiently established now that we can hope for quality over quantity? Let’s see if we can’t get the game industry to embrace the same level of diversity and imagination that’s made Hollywood such a success–I promise you, that’s where the future lies.
*It’s a bit interesting (and disheartening) to consider that the first statistic (50% gamers) covers the entire population of adults in the USA, whereas the second statistic (50% voters) covers a smaller demographic–sans immigrants, convicts and aliens.

Great idea mate!
I rarely have the time to completely finish a game, I love the concept of games designed for one sitting.
Xbox Live Arcade, WiiWare, PSN
To your question is marketing. Just think about it.
Kelso yeah i agree, but what he’s implying is big budget 2 hour games.. Not little arcade games
would not workout not enough time to tell a story and give the player all the options you want let alone the game play where will that fit in. that is why games are longer then movies you have to tell a story and give game play. but i do agree on the options part i think games need to give the player control of the story but i fear that will only make the game over all a longer game with more options comes more story and game play to fit that story but me and my brother love games that have a story so i would love to see longer games so bring on all the options
I see what your saying, but its a bad idea. If a game like this was made, guess what there would be 50 million games exactly like it and gaming itself would really suck because it would all be the exact same thing over and over.
Also when your playing a game, compared to a movie, it takes longer for someone to get attached to a character. You most likely wont even care about the characters in a movie unless it was based on some book series you’ve been reading for years anyway.
heard of heavy rain? might not be 2 hours but its exactly what youve described.
Heavy Rain is the game you pretty much described where you are pretty much deciding the fate of 4 characters as they animate on the screen. I think of Video Games as Art and the Developers are the artist who jobs is to deliver the best experience ever for the consumer.
I think some people aren’t reading the article, and assuming you support a $60 2 hour game, but they couldn’t be more wrong.
I like the idea of four different games–each. Like others have said, Heavy Rain will deliver that experience, but I can’t help but want more.
Wow, fantastic blog foramt! How lengthy have you ever been running a blog for? you make running a blog look easy. The total look of your site is fantastic, let alone the content!
Two words: Halo Chronicles
What you fail to mention is that there’s a learning curve to most games (be it video games or any other game) which you don’t have in movies (you just sit there). If you take it into account, 2 hours isn’t much to do anything. And if there’s not much of a learning curve, you’ll see people complain that it’s just the same game over and over again with different graphics. Also, developping the framework (AI, physics, etc) for the game is a big part of the cost of developping a game. Doing all that work to only use it for 2 hours might not be a viable solution.
they are found on the pc
Go watch a movie then, this was a dumb article. I have an idea play a game for 2 hrs then read the last chapter of the strategy guide.
This is a horrible idea…….thats why there is Download able games.If a studios takes its time making a game Im sure they would want it to last long and be epic I understand how people have different views, but games are not like movies they are a different medium of entertainment and should be different. Also games like geometry wars and pixel junk eden are there so you can finish a level or the game in a few minutes and thats how i always looked at games.
There are plenty of 2 hour games… look only to the 8 and 16-bit generations for them. These huge, sprawling games are a product of our increased expectations and improved technology. Heck, we’re not satisfied with the content on the disc any more, and now require DLC to prolong our “enjoyment” of these games.
But I think the reason or argument for shorter games is not necessarily those listed above, but rather that not only has our society changed as far as our expectations for games, but also as far as our expectations for ourselves. People continue to work longer and longer hours and have less and less time to devote to their out-of-work lives, which has to include both family and individual activities and commitments. So, given that many (most?) games are made for mature individuals who would likely have jobs (unless they’re in college), why do we continue to make (and purchase) games that are longer and longer, when those games will more than likely never be played to their conclusion?
This is the reason for making shorter games: allowing people who have small amounts of time to be able to experience, complete, and feel satisfied with their games experience. And, while you may be surprised, there are still companies who are doing these sort of games…
As mentioned previously, there are a lot of these types of games on PSN, XBLA, WiiWare, and the ilk. Flower, for instance, is a great example of gameplay that can be learned and mastered very quickly, along with a storyline that’s just fleshed out enough to keep the gamer motivated.
But the best example is Tell Tale’s line of episodic adventure games, especially the Sam & Max “seasons” of games. These games are brilliant in many ways, but the most brilliant is this: they’re designed creatively and functionally for exactly the same person. That is, the content and gameplay as well as the length both cater to people who are most likely working adults at this point, people who played Sam & Max Hit the Road when they were younger. These people like the idea of playing games, but don’t have the time (or don’t want to spend the time) to play 70+ hour adventure games, and would instead like to start and complete a single, concise story in a single sitting.
Not counting loss of lives, Super Mario Bros has a three and a half hour time limit. Think about that: if you play through each of the levels in progression, the maximum amount of allotted time is three and a half hours. Now, think about the sense of accomplishment you felt the first time you beat Super Mario Bros. And it wasn’t because you finished a long and drawn out quest or because you read an entire novel’s worth of text… all you did was rescue a princess from a giant, fire-breathing lizard. There’s a sense of accomplishment associated with finishing anything, and it is not necessarily reliant on how long it took to finish. However, the task now becomes convincing people that there is value in conciseness. This is will be the most difficult task…
[Side note: In years past, it was not uncommon for people to purchase abridged versions of popular (and, er, unpopular) novels. These were versions of the novels that had been edited down to be more accessible, be it linguistically or length-based. Why can we not have abridged versions of video games? It's not like it hasn't been tried before: the Japanese version of Final Fantasy IV was released in two versions, Hard-type and Easy-type. Nowadays, this difficulty-adjustment is handled within a single release of a game, but why can we not have releases of games that cut out the fat and leave only the story and set pieces, much like a blockbuster movie. First-person shooters and RPGs would be prime targets for this kind of release, since more often than not, the player is slogging through sections on their way to much more interesting battles and events. Why can't these "boring" bits be removed, the difficulty scaled to account for the lack of grinding, and then released as a version that can be enjoyed much more easily? Ok, that's all.]
Couple points….
1) “2-hour” is a ballpark figure.
2) The key idea here was that by cutting down the expected length of a game, typically an RPG, it would be possible to truly incorporate branching storylines–something that’s impossible with long, epic games.
That would be a killer for the company who made it. If it were widely known that a game was only two hours long, people would just rent it. There is no reason to invest the money in a game that will only last two hours. I personally love games that have a larger story and feel like a journey. BioShock, Mass Effect, Oblivion and the crown jewel, Fallout 3. These are where it is at, for me!
Go play Gravity Bone. It is one of the best short games out there. It only take 15-20 minutes to complete, but it is really enjoyable and the art direction is awesome. Its also free so that’s good. Or maybe you could try playing Zeno Clash from what I here is 3 hours of awesomeness.
Somebody deleted my post, and it was a bit snide, but it’s probably the best answer to your question if you actually thought about it before deleting it. The answer is marketing.
It’s much easier for devs to spend their time and effort with a big game and a traditional marketing cycle, and they’ll see better rewards than to do a smattering of smaller titles with separate marketing pushes for each of them.
Even if they were to charge ten to fifteen bucks, the marketing on it would probably have to cost just as much as a 60 dollar title if they want to get it the same exposure.
Everyone else is answering from a gamer point of view, and I’m giving you the ACTUAL reason, yet am getting deleted. Way to go guys.
The best short game I ever played was Prince of Persia: Sands of Time. It took a while the first time through, but a replay could be done in less than 3 hours. The story was perfect because it was very similar to a movie plot, and the Prince’s conversations (both to himself and Farah) kept it going so you didn’t feel like you were grinding for hours between a tiny bit of plot advancement being presented to you. The perfect “short” game. I think a better idea would be to have some games in the future break the content down into episodes. So each one was self-contained. Play for a couple hours just to experience essentially what would be a single episode of a TV series, like Firefly, where you are in the same “world” but each episode is unique while still having a subplot that exists from start to finish.
@Here
Someone probably deleted your post because it was offensive, or the spam/content filter picked it up.
It’s a great suggestion, but an obvious one. You’re basically saying “make more episodic content and PSN/XBLA games”, which people are already doing.
@Henry
Gravity Bone is an excellent game
I definitely do not agree with two hour games. I’d much rather prefer a game that takes me weeks to beat because it’s a bigger pay off at the end. I feel like I have accomplished something. If I wanted a game that took only 2 hours to beat, I’d play the childish games that were made for the NES. (most of those games only took an hour or two to beat.)
Short games can’t bring in the same revenue that long games can, so big companies wont really support them. There are plenty of great short titles, but most of them are created by indie developers. I love the blog btw, I have a gamer blog also.

lol I don’t know if the gameplay’s bteetr or worse in the intro than the actual game graphics are great though lollol at Fat Samoa Joe Rikishi amd Vince McMahon

all. However just imagine if you added some great images or videos to give your posts more, “pop”!
Your content is excellent but with images and videos, this site could certainly be one of the greatest in its field.
Awesome blog!
Nice blog! Is your theme custom made or did you download it from
somewhere? A design like yours with a few simple tweeks would really make my blog shine.
Please let me know where you got your theme.

Hello would you mind stating which blog platform you’re working with? I’m going to start my own
blog soon but I’m having a tough time making a decision between BlogEngine/Wordpress/B2evolution and Drupal. The reason I ask is because your layout seems different then most blogs and I’m looking for something unique.
P.S Apologies for getting off-topic but I had to ask!
Hi there just wanted to give you a quick heads up.
The text in your content seem to be running off the screen in Safari.
I’m not sure if this is a formatting issue or something to do with web browser compatibility but I figured I’d post to let you know.
The design look great though! Hope you get the problem fixed
soon. Cheers
With havin so much content and articles do you ever run into any issues of plagorism or copyright

Would you advise starting with a free platform like WordPress or go for
a paid option? There are so many options out
there that I’m totally confused .. Any recommendations? Thanks!
My coder is trying to persuade me to move to .net from PHP. I have always disliked the idea because of the expenses. But he’s tryiong
none the less. I’ve been using WordPress on various websites for about a year and am anxious about switching to another platform. I have heard very good things about blogengine.net. Is there a way I can transfer all my wordpress posts into it? Any help would be really appreciated!
Does your site have a contact page? I’m having trouble
locating it but, I’d like to shoot you an email. I’ve got some suggestions for your blog you might be interested in hearing.

with my Facebook group. Chat soon!
Greetings from California! I’m bored to tears at work so I decided to check out your blog on my iphone during lunch break. I enjoy the knowledge you present here and can’t wait to take a look when I get home.
I’m surprised at how quick your blog loaded on my cell phone .. I’m not even using
WIFI, just 3G .. Anyhow, superb site!
Hi! I know this is kinda off topic nevertheless I’d figured I’d ask.
Would you be interested in exchanging links or maybe guest writing
a blog post or vice-versa? My blog goes over a lot of the same subjects as
yours and I think we could greatly benefit from each other.
If you might be interested feel free to
send me an e-mail. I look forward to hearing from you!
Superb blog by the way!
At this time it sounds like Movable Type is the best blogging platform available right now.
(from what I’ve read) Is that what you are using on your blog?
Fantastic post but I was wanting to know if you could write a litte more on this subject? I’d
be very thankful if you could elaborate a little bit further.
Kudos!
Hello! I know this is kind of off topic but I was wondering if you knew where I could locate a captcha plugin for
my comment form? I’m using the same blog platform as yours and I’m having
problems finding one? Thanks a lot!
When I originally commented I clicked the “Notify me when new comments are added” checkbox and now each time a comment is added I get several e-mails with the same comment.
Is there any way you can remove me from that service? Thanks a
lot!
Greetings! This is my first visit to your blog! We are a collection of volunteers and starting a new project in a community in the same niche.
Your blog provided us valuable information to work on.
You have done a extraordinary job!
Hi! I know this is kinda off topic but I was wondering which blog platform are
you using for this website? I’m getting sick and tired of WordPress because I’ve
had issues with hackers and I’m looking at alternatives for another platform. I would be fantastic if you could point me in the direction of a good platform.
Good day! This post couldn’t be written any better! Reading this post reminds me of my previous room mate!
He always kept chatting about this. I will forward this post
to him. Pretty sure he will have a good read. Thanks for sharing!
Write more, thats all I have to say. Literally, it seems as though
you relied on the video to make your point. You definitely know what youre talking about, why throw away your intelligence on just posting videos to your blog
when you could be giving us something informative to read?
Today, I went to the beachfront with my kids. I found a sea
shell and gave it to my 4 year old daughter and said “You can hear the ocean if you put this to your ear.” She put the
shell to her ear and screamed. There was a hermit crab inside and it pinched her ear.
She never wants to go back! LoL I know this is totally
off topic but I had to tell someone!
The other day, while I was at work, my cousin stole my iPad
and tested to see if it can survive a 30 foot drop, just so she can be a youtube sensation.
My apple ipad is now broken and she has 83 views. I know this is completely off topic but I had to share it
with someone!
I was curious if you ever considered changing the layout of your website?
Its very well written; I love what youve got to say. But
maybe you could a little more in the way of content
so people could connect with it better. Youve got an awful
lot of text for only having one or 2 images. Maybe you could space it out better?
Hi there, i read your blog occasionally and
i own a similar one and i was just wondering
if you get a lot of spam comments? If so how do you reduce
it, any plugin or anything you can suggest? I get so much
lately it’s driving me crazy so any help is very much appreciated.
This design is steller! You certainly know how to keep a reader amused. Between your wit and your videos, I was almost moved to start my own blog (well, almost…HaHa!) Great job. I really loved what you had to say, and more than that, how you presented it. Too cool!
I’m truly enjoying the design and layout of your website.
It’s a very easy on the eyes which makes it much more enjoyable for me to come here and visit more often. Did you hire out a developer to create your theme? Great work!
Hey there! I could have sworn I’ve been to this
blog before but after browsing through some of the post I realized it’s new to me. Anyways, I’m definitely happy I found it and I’ll be bookmarking and checking back frequently!
Hey there! Would you mind if I share your blog with my zynga group? There’s a lot of folks that I think
would really enjoy your content. Please let me know. Cheers
Hey there, I think your blog might be having browser compatibility issues.
When I look at your blog in Firefox, it looks fine but when opening in Internet Explorer, it has
some overlapping. I just wanted to give you a quick heads up!
Other then that, very good blog!
Wonderful blog! I found it while surfing around on
Yahoo News. Do you have any suggestions on how to
get listed in Yahoo News? I’ve been trying for a while but I never seem to get there! Cheers
Hi! This is kind of off topic but I need some guidance from an established blog. Is it hard to set up your own blog? I’m not very techincal but
I can figure things out pretty fast. I’m thinking about creating my own but I’m not
sure where to begin. Do you have any ideas or suggestions?
Many thanks
Greetings! Quick question that’s totally off topic. Do you know how to make your site mobile friendly? My website looks weird when browsing from my iphone. I’m trying to find a theme or plugin that might be able
to fix this problem. If you have any suggestions, please share.
Thank you!
I’m not that much of a online reader to be honest but your blogs really
nice, keep it up! I’ll go ahead and bookmark your site to come back later on. Many thanks
I really like your blog.. very nice colors & theme. Did you create this website yourself or did you hire someone to do it for you? Plz reply as I’m looking to design my own blog and would like to know where
u got this from. appreciate it
Incredible! This blog looks exactly like my old one! It’s on a entirely different topic but it has pretty much the same layout and design. Superb choice of colors!
Howdy just wanted to give you a quick heads up and let you know a few of the pictures aren’t loading correctly.
I’m not sure why but I think its a linking issue. I’ve tried it in two
different web browsers and both show the same results.
Howdy are using WordPress for your site platform?
I’m new to the blog world but I’m trying to get started and create my own.
Do you need any html coding expertise to make your own blog?
Any help would be really appreciated!
Heya this is kind of of off topic but I was wondering if blogs use WYSIWYG editors
or if you have to manually code with HTML. I’m starting a blog soon but have no coding knowledge so I wanted to get advice from someone with experience. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Hey there! I just wanted to ask if you ever have any issues with hackers? My last blog (wordpress) was hacked and I ended up losing many months of hard work due to no back up. Do you have any solutions to stop hackers?
Hi there! Do you use Twitter? I’d like to follow you if that
would be okay. I’m absolutely enjoying your blog and look forward to new updates.
Hi! Do you know if they make any plugins to protect against hackers? I’m
kinda paranoid about losing everything I’ve worked hard on. Any tips?
Hello! Do you know if they make any plugins to help with Search Engine Optimization? I’m trying to
get my blog to rank for some targeted keywords but I’m not seeing very good success. If you know of any please share. Many thanks!
I know this if off topic but I’m looking into starting my own
blog and was curious what all is needed to get setup? I’m assuming having a blog like yours would cost a pretty penny? I’m
not very web savvy so I’m not 100% certain. Any tips or advice would be greatly appreciated. Cheers
Hmm is anyone else having problems with the images on this blog loading? I’m trying to determine if its
a problem on my end or if it’s the blog. Any responses would be greatly appreciated.
I’m not sure why but this web site is loading incredibly slow for me.
Is anyone else having this problem or is it a problem on
my end? I’ll check back later and see if the problem still exists.
Hey there! I’m at work surfing around your blog from my new apple iphone!
