Well, sometimes when i think "Jesus, does this game ****ing end? I just wanna see the conclusion christ sakes!" that means the game is too long and i am bored with it, wich affects in a negative way my enjoyment of the game because i may drop the game before finishing it and will never replay it (probably). (Final Fantasy games have given that feelling to me as of late, FFXII for example feels too long to me)
On the other hand, a game being too short never happened to me, i never played a game i felt it was too short, even Riddick and Max payne, i allways thought it was the right lenght, and because of its lenght the game kept exciting and fresh all the way through. What happens is not that you think the game is too short is just that you wish you had a follow up to it right away, but what happens in games like that is that i will pretty much replay them from the beggining, maybe multiple times.
And i just lied in the point above, saying i never played a game i felt too short, let me correct that, its actually very recent, Splinter Cell double agent on the 360 felt too short, it was like over before you knew it, the way the story wraps up in the end is so sudden that it feels weird. And that was bad.
