Sucker Punch boss Chris Zimmerman reckons openworld action game inFamous will take a maximum of 25 hours to complete, and less if people stick to the straight and narrow.
"Well it depends on how you decide to play it; if you play just straight through as fast as you can, maybe 15 hours," Zimmerman told the US PlayStation blog (http://blog.us.playstation.com/2009/05/12/infamous-your-questions-answered-2/).
"But in addition to the 35 story missions in the game we have 100 side-missions, [and] we have a whole bunch of collectibles you can pick up. If you do that stuff, somewhere in the 20s - 25 hours, maybe."
Zimmerman added that the side-missions are more than distractions and have an effect on the world. Protect someone setting up a medical tent, for instance, and you can respawn there later.
There's no option to replay with unlocked extras, but Zimmerman going through again as the opposite alignment - good or evil - will feel like "basically a new game". Changing the difficulty to hard also "really changes" the experience, apparently.
inFamous, a cross between Crackdown and Star Wars, will be released exclusively for PS3 on 29th May.
