    I am really in tough spot I have 900 MP and i just bought Mothership Zeta for Fallout 3 which got me back into it now either i spend 800MP for Point Lookout or I buy 500 more points for Shadow Complex. I have enough money for one but not both, but I think I am gonna wait till the trial comes out

    Nice review man! It's good to know all of these things before getting into it (especially the bit about the length of the game, that's a bit disappointing). Thanks for all this!

    Considering that game is bassed off 2D Metroid games, the lenght is pretty good.

    @CaptainObvious: I'm talking about their projected length vs. actual length.
     
    From SpaceInsomniac's review: "The main issue, sadly, is the length. Partially, this is probably to blame on the many previews and interviews claiming that the game takes between ten and twelve hours to complete. Well, that depends on your definition of complete. Unless I’m a far better gamer than most of the Chair and Epic play test staff, they most likely were talking about fully completing the game by finding every upgrade. As much as it pains me to admit it, while playing on the normal difficulty, I was able to finish the game in just around six hours."
