1. Soren: if I'm reading the profile screen correctly, I've got 16.75 hours into it, spread out over the past week. I pretty much screamed through the story mode without stopping to do any side missions or looting treasure, or buying art or most of the weapons. That number includes "cleaning up" the cities of Tuscany, Romagna and much of Florence. It also include the statues and renovations at Monteriggioni, as well as the glyphs, the assassin's tombs, the codex pages and collecting about half the feathers. I have a ton of clean up left (side missions and such) in Florence and Venice. There are a TON of assassination contract side missions in each city. Only Tuscany and Romanga are "complete." Tell him to be sure and buy the maps from the art dealers. I wouldn't be surprised if I have another 16 hours left to "finish" the game.
2. Geezers: I love how these threads bring out the cranks. Bugger off, pops. Heh...
