After all, director Josef Fares' previous game, Brothers: A Tale of Two Sons, clocked in at around 2.5-3 hours, so is it at all likely that this decidedly more ambitious follow-up will run much longer?

Don't be surprised if it receives polarising reviews for delivering an enthralling experience that barely runs the length of a feature film.

Why It Might Not: To be fair, the gameplay shown off so far looks pretty diverse, so the game would probably have to move incredibly fast to cram it all in under 3 hours.

Plus, with the game clearly having a solid budget behind it, it's entirely possible that its scope is consequently far greater than that of Brothers.
