    Roughly how long is the game and are there any incentives to play through it again?
     
    I've been wanting this for a long time and now that I see it's only $20 I'm thinking of getting it but want to make sure it's not something I can just rent and get through in a weekend.

    It's a pretty meaty game.  I don't think there's any major incentives to replay, but you might have fun doing it anyways.
     
    But you should definitely fucking buy the game!  It's worth $60 if not more...  You probably couldn't get through in a weekend even if you were the master of games.

    You probably could beat it in a weekend, but you could beat most games in a weekend if you really wanted to.
    It's long enough, and definitely worth the money. There's also some DLC (I think.)

    yeah, but the DLC cost money...
    But if you do the story+personal missions, perhaps 20-25 hours long?

    I am astounded you even need to ask such a question.   
    Its $20 the game NEEDS you to buy it!!!!!!
    Buy it!
    Buy it! 
     
    The game will haunt your dreams if you don't seriously! 
    As an RPG it's pretty long but for $20 it's like your stealing it... Sorta :/

    graphic is so-so, while sometimes it looks beautiful and like a water painting, sometimes it look like a ps2-title in HD...

    More than 20, easily, I'd say.  I believe my save file is over 25 hours but I'd have to check.  The DLC was on sale just a few days ago, might still be.  The DLC seems to be worth it (well not the Hard EX DLC, but the other 2)

    I borought this game from a friend and intend to play through it this week. It is one of those games i missed because i didn't have a PS3 at the time. 20-25 hours sounds pretty good! I already did the first 4 missions and i like the game so far...
