The main issue seems to be release times, but that's a by-case problem. Because video game does not have the same restrictions. TV show has to fit into the allocated time slots. Book writer has to pay bills while writing their work and not many people are gonna buy a 20 lb book. Comic (mainly ones with shared universe) has to come out on a tight schedule to remain relevant. Movies have to end before people get tired. That's all true, but I don't see how that relates to video game episodes. That just means that games don't have to be episodic. Games can indeed be any length, so there's no reason it can't be split into smaller episodes if that's the approach the creators want to take. --- Official King of PotD You only need one T-Rex to make the point, though. ~ Samus Sedai <cite>keyblader1985 posted [p:901011052] in how do you...
