    FF7 DoC is too short!
    say many but if it was longer it would be too long. im quite sure that even more gameplay would make it frustrating and boring. besides there are bonus missions that people dont take into account when judging the game.

    thats just one example. i find that most of the time, even if the game seems short, its for the best.

    If you mean 50 hours of ok gaming over 2 amazing hours, i'd pick quality, if it was 50 hours of good but not great over 2 amazing hours, i'd pick quantity.

    But i guess if it was 2 of the best hours of your life you could just replay it over and over

    I'd pick quality over quantity any day.

    A very short game, in my opinion, won't score high in 'quality'. You need a bit of both for a good game, so its hard to choose. You don't want to spend hours on a crap game either.

    A mix of both. I don't want a wonderful game to be over in a blink and I wouldn't want to play a long game if it sucked the whole time.

    Throw me in the mix of both pile. Though I'll generally take quality over quantity, there's such a thing as too short (I'm looking at you Prince of Persia: Sands of Time). I don't care how good the quality is, if it's beatable in 5 hours on the first playthrough, it's too short. I prefer 10 hours from most games at least, though there are exceptions.
