  • I like this achievement.
  • YAY!!!!
  • Got this in Saints Row 3 without even trying simply because that game was so fun I kept playing it and never had to grind...that will most likely be the case here
  • It was 30hrs on Saints 3...what a let down this list is.
  • @5 People who don't play games bc of achievements that require grinding or achievements that sound "too hard" should be removed from the gaming gene pool.
  • @5 Fag
  • uh 30 hours was too long and that was before the game was terrible. Definately not buying this.
  • @8 you're not buying a game because of an achievement? ever played a game for fun?
  • I've played Saints Row 3 for a total of 64 and a half hours in a matter of a few weeks. This achievement will probably be the last one I get, but it won't be a problem. Nothing on this achievement list seems too difficult. Killing the 100 or so aliens with the various superpowers seems more difficult depending on how they attack. Hopefully there's notoriety like the gangs in Saints Row 3 have. So they keep attacking and you can keep killing. I am very excited about this game and definitely pre-ordering.
  • Wish I could get this! But no, Australia banned it :/
  • So the game is the same length as Saints Row The Third according to the devs. Saints Row The Third had just enough content for you to barely scrape by 30 hours if you were doing everything else required for the rest of the achievements. So they make a game just as long as Saints Row The Third but ask you to play it for 10 hours more despite there not being 10 extra hours worth of content compared to the last game. Thanks Volition, always appreciate a mindless grind for no good reason!
  • I'm gonna pass on this game I loved SR3 but this just doesn't look great but than again I gotta give it a try first @#11 I hear ya I live in Austalia for like 4 months every year (my wife is from there but lives in NYC with me) and you guys get fucked on alot of games it's not fair our Aussie brothers and allies get shafted
  • 40 hours are you serious? It took me 24+ to do everything in Saints row 3 including all DLC collectibles etc. How slow do they think we are?
  • c'mon guys its not that bad u get super powers!
  • thank you #15 I'm glad I'm not the only one who thinks getting superpowers is bad!!!
  • People bitching about too much time grinding. If ur done with everything n the game, leave it running and take a nap or run around town doing errends or something. 40 hours is not that much in the long run. I for one will be spending spare time pummeling the virtual citizens of Steelport to their dome like crazy Superman from Injustice. Which reminds me, now that we have legitimate super powers, maybe we can unlock some kinda Superman-style costume. Would be cool right?
  • @16 I know right ! If you don't like getting AWESOME SUPER POWERS don't buy the game!
  • I dug this on in SR3 and now in this one but I need to see more of the game and try it out before I get it ,I'm still not sold but so far looks interesting
  • good list except having to romance everyone it should just be 1 achievement for romancing any 2 homies and their quests
  • hope they bring out a good amount of DLC for this as in saints row the third it added about 6-10 hours of gameplay if you took it slowly and that really helped me get past the 30 hour mark
  • fuck just leave your xbox on all night with the game running, and go to sleep, when you wake up you'll will have 40 G's More :)
  • @21 I didn't need the DLCs to get the 30 hours achievement on third. I was trying to complete all of the challenges at the time. If there's challenges on this game, there wasn't be a problem. Getting this one. Plus its going to be freaking awesome having/gaining super powers, so there's plenty of time.
  • @23 I managed to get 100% in the game in 32 hours including dlc
  • I'm with 23. Taking the time to really enjoy the Third put my play through at 72 hours. If this game is anywhere near as fun, 40 hours won't be a problem!
  • I'll get this achievement on day one.
  • According to @26 there is officially 40 hours in one day...what will i do with 16 more hours?
  • @27 I quess PinkMistful is CHuck Norris's profile name.
  • I got 81.5 hours in on the third, this will be easy, would be easier if more people i know play this though.
  • It's unfortunate that I'm only at 25 hours played with a 99% game completion stat but oh well still enjoyed the game.
  • 93% completion and 30 hours after only 5 days. After this, the only achievement that'll be left is The Challenge King, which I won't get because the activities were meant for co-op. Infinitely more difficult solo.
  • @31 I did The Challenge King without co-op and completed 100% at 28 hours. It's not that hard.
  • This game really needs a true new game +, 10 hours left and 2,000,000 m in alien craft. I don't think the 2 achievements and "finished" game is enough to keep me going with this grind.
  • All achievements done except this and only on 29hrs. I wish this game had more longevity. Guess I'll wait for DLC to pop this one
  • Is this glitched.. Im on over 40 hours but not chievo
  • @35: 40 hours in the simulation, not 40 hours of gameplay. Any time you've spent outside the simulation does not count.
  • Yeah finished gameplay just before 20 hours and at 25 after mop-up challenges. Good old rubberband the thumbstick trick from Morrowind sure helped. :D
  • finished 100% at 30 hours taking my time. now to wait 10 hours just for this achievement. was expecting more things to do in this game, what a let down.
  • I think the 40 hours was a little to long. 30 hours would have been more appropriate. Since I think most people are beating this game is about 25-30 hours. So who needs a co-op partner. Need a few more hours ;)
  • Finished on 30 hours, just letting my controller fly me around in an alien vehicle whilst getting the last 10 hours.
  • I surpassed 40 hours according to my gameplay timer. However shortly after I discovered that I had the in game achievement tracker pop up saying I still had 60 minutes left. So yeah, when they mean in the simulation, they mean it. on ship time and missions that are not IN the simulation do not count towards this achievement. I'm leaving my guy running around on a roof top for an hour. Thanks rubber bands!
  • I started a new game, and I was only at 25 hours. I discovered that it continues, and I'm now at 27 hours. So it's good to know.
  • I completed the game and all the other achievements in just under 28 hours. I'm now on 40:03 and no achievement, although like 36 says probably a good hour of that is time outside of the simulation *sigh* my xbox isn't thanking me for being left on for this period of time you know Volition.
  • Just got it at 40:25. Non-simulation time was a lot less than I expected!
  • I got everything else done in 33 hours :( this is going to be a long wait.
  • this is soooo boring. i just hit 40 hours, then i realized this achievement accounds only for time spent inside the simulation. why isnt there a way to see how much time spent within the sim?
  • Turn on the game, go to sleep. All achievements in one video: http://youtu.be/KljQYe3uxjo
  • Lol
  • Presumably this will count during DLC, so will wait till then. Only because I don't have a wired pad.
  • dose this include the whole game or do u have to spend it in the simulation dose outside the simulation count as ive done everything apart from the last mission and only don 25 hours. please help
  • after half an hour is pauses and say i have to reconnect the controller cause i tried to leave it on the fall asleep. can anyone help please???
  • Shit, wish I knew how much time I had left cus I didn't factor in the time out of the sim.
  • @49 and 50, Use a Plug and play to charge the wireless joypad while playing
  • I must of gotten extremely lucky on this as mine unlocked at 40:00:07 now you're not telling me I only spent 7 seconds on the ship throughout the game with all the quests and side quest with romances to do? That would of been at least 15mins if that. :)
  • Does it combine with other playthroughs? Or do I have to kill more time in a single one?
  • well can u still get the achievement if u accidentally overwrote your game without playing an additional 40 hours cuz i was going for fourth and forty and switch hitter
  • Mine popped at 40:05 and I know I spent at LEAST an hour outside the sim.
  • 44 hours and no achievement. Im pretty sure i didnt spend 4 hours+ outside the simulation lol. anyone else have problems getting this?
  • Mine popped at 40:00:00 and I spent maybe 4 hours outside the simulation.
  • I've played 20 hours and i have everything else... now just to wait...
  • I beat everything else at 26 hours. Fortunately, I've got Netflix to watch while I push the controller every 10 minutes.
  • 100% in 23 hrs. I hate achievements like this...
  • Popped at 40:36 according to the save screen.
  • As soon as I got this achievement I deleted the game to make room on my console for The Crew and Pinball FX2. I do this lots.
  • Just finished the game, got every other ACHV except this one, I'm at 30 hours. omg, I'm really going to have to idle for 10 hours!? 2 hours or whatever, maybe I might not bitch about, maybe 5 pushing it. But 9-10?? Jesus...
  • You will easily beat the game (story and side quests) in about 15 - 20 hours, 100% runs (all activities, shops, challenges etc..) in about 20-25 hours (depending on skill level and how wisely you upgrade) so unless the doc time played counts (I don't own either so I wouldn't know) just waste time in the simulation or stand on a tall rooftop and leave the game running with a wired controller to grind out the remaining 15-20 hours.
  • Dammit, finished in under 30 hours. Hate achievements like this.
