Ubisoft Announces Beyond Good & Evil 2

Gamespot is one of many to report that Ubisoft has announced a sequel to their action-adventure game "Beyond Good & Evil." "The teaser gave no details as to platforms or release date. However, as part of the company's earnings report last week, Ubisoft did say that it had a pair of unannounced sequels in existing franchises set for release by the end of March. Released in November of 2003, Beyond Good & Evil won critical acclaim for its mix of traditional action adventure elements with stealth segments, a picture-taking gameplay mechanic, and an engaging story of a young woman pulled into a rebel faction to blow the lid off of an interstellar government conspiracy.

    "Too bad the game took less than 10 hours to complete."

    Well first of all, I havent played it...

    But is it re-playable? I finished SOFII in a few hours, but in the last 8 years or whatever, I have re-played it probably 20 times... (and far more in multiplayer) same goes for the original Half-Life...

    And stuff like FarCry, there's a couple levels I can play over and over again... however, im somewhat of a perfectionist, which is why I generally stick to racing games.

    Personally I think a game that has a high replay value is more important than how long it takes to complete.
