MGS4 isn't even that long. Fucking incredible game, but there's really only about 2 hours of gameplay and about 6 of cutscenes. Not the best game for a marathon. You want something lengthy and challenging, like an RPG or adventure game. If you go for an RPG, I'd suggest Chrono Trigger, as it's REEEEAAAALLLYYYY long and it's a damn fine and entertaining game. If you go for adventure, I'd suggest Zelda, Kirby, or Castlevania. OR HEY, YOU CAN ALWAYS PLAY CAVE STORY, BUT WHO DOES THAT, IT'S NOT LIKE ANYONE WOULD MAKE A FORUM ABOUT IT BECAUSE IT'S SO GOOD OR ANYTHING.































FUCKING DO IT, BITCH.

Cave Story can be beaten in roughly 5 hours if you've played it before.

Maybe instead of playing one game, you could just get a bunch of them and marathon them in a row, so that you don't run the risk of beating one too early.

But that defeats the purpose of the record, which is to marathon one game continuously throughout the 30+ hours. If he changed games he would be disqualified. Duh.

Then yes, an RPG would probably be best.

Or a Zelda game (if he tried to do all the sidequests).

He probably wouldn't even need to. If he played Ocarina of Time he'd be set. It takes at least 50+ hours to play through. Especially if he just Rambo's his way through it and doesnt go find heart pieces. It'll be hard as hell, thus being even longer.

Handing out punishments now, are you?

Haha, Just kidding.

If you're gonna play through an RPG, why not do something like DQ8 then 9 if you're gonna be crazy. Otherwise just play Pokemon B/W or what have you.

Are you serious?

I can beat it in a much smaller time then that.
Even without Heart Pieces.

I was guesstimating. At most, I'd say he would probably fit the required time almost exactly.
