Boo: Why does "longer" equate "better?" O-o

Did, I say it was better just because it was longer? No... It had more powers, bosses, way more characters, MORE THINGS TO DO, just an overall, longer, better, adventure.

I never got to beat either BK game, but they were great AND had good length.

Nobody said a longer game automatically makes it good, I loved the fuck out of God Of War 3, but it was 6-8 hours long, I would take down massive points in the score for it being that short.. I paid $60 for this game, you think I want to play this game for 8 hours and then never play it again. It was a good 8 hours of my life, but seriously I want more.. If it was like 16 hours, would have got perfect in my score.

Banjo Tooie was better because it was hell of a lot longer, getting the jigsaws was more challenging, long of characters that you could really get to like and enjoy, awesome transformations to use (Dinosaurs, Washing Machine, TNT, Snowball, Van) that had unique moves. They also had different kinds of eggs to make it even MORE interesting, Clock Work Kazooie Egg, that was pretty damn good, and you used all the eggs pretty often.

Also you could actually be Mumbo and use him for different scenarios, and also they just gave you random things to do like get doubloons for Cheato pages, it was really something.

Most of all Banjo and Kazooie could split up, giving them even more abilities, having to split up to learn new moves, get to certain areas.

It was longer too which made it the icing on the cake, it was definitely a 10 in my opinion, and I couldn't think of much to make it better.

So that's what makes a longer game better, more content, like Banjo Tooie executed perfectly..

Nah I wasn't saying that, I was just making a statement. But if you loved the game that much you would come back and play it again someday. That's certainly what I do, lol.

(In fact what I've been doing is playing some of my old favorite games all the time and ignoring my newer ones I haven't beaten yet... I need to feel like playing them Sick)

I dunno, I was never really a big fan of Banjo and Kazooie games. They were kinda stupid to me when I was a kid so I never really go into them. "fighting carrots? uhg thats dumb ~plays harvest moon 64 forever~"

If it were longer it'd have been better, I think. Some people found it too repetitive though, but whatever.

Force Unleashed would probably have been generally considered better if it wasn't Star Wars.

except that the only reasons you're using to justify your perspective are reasons pertaining to length and "more" content.

more things, not better things

you say the word "better" but then give no actual reasons for why that would be the case

I don't really know how to explain it, just some games when they end so abruptly or if it didn't take that long, I just think "Damn, this could've been a longer game, whether it be more quests, levels, objectives ect. Of course as long as they add to the game rather than just oh hey look there's more. Some games just feel to short and sometimes you wish you had a longer experience is all.

I guess you think Mario is dumb because of the fighting mushrooms.

That was dripping with sarcasm on the carrot part, notice Harvest moon 64.

At least I think so?

Out of curiosity, why'd you quote this post too? I already explained what I meant by that, I wasn't criticizing what you said or anything, I agree with it. BK and BT were great games. I liked getting the Jiggies and the Jinjos and stuff.
