I wouldent say that, i mean, it makes no sence whatsoever, compared to the games.JohnReaper said:
Serial Experiments Lain is my favorite anime show of all time and it was only 13 episodes.
Ergo Proxy is also freaking awesome and that was 26 episodes.
Gundam The 08Th MS Team was one of my favorite mecha shows until Gurren Laggan.
Paranoia agent was great though confused me at the end a bit.
Baccano! is also one of my personal favorites.

Bare in mind I consider 26 episodes average length.
FLCL: Not going to beat it, six episode, tight storytelling and it's fun.
Armitage III: The first OAV is four episodes.
Black Lagoon: Each season is only 13 episodes long and consists of several short story arcs.
Paranoia Agent: 13 episodes and it manages to feel like a whole 26 episodes.
Read or Die: The OAV is only three episodes long and awesome.
Macross Plus: 4 45 minute episodes, and it's classic.
Bastard!: The OAV is six episodes long and an entertaining take on Swords and Sorcery.
Aside from that my recommendations would mostly boil down to OAVs I have on VHS.

Fooly Cooly. It makes no sense, and is one of the most bizarre things I have ever seen, but it's really good and only 6 episodes.
Clannad: not insanely short, but not insanely long: 2 24-episode seasons. Easily the most emotional work of film, animated or live, that I have ever seen, especially in After Story (the second season).

It was by the guy's who made FLCL and shows some influences (i.e crazyness) from it, so you'd probably like it. And your friends are right, it is awesome.tellmeimaninja said:
Elfen Lied and Code Geass are rather short, but still fantastic animes. Death Note is also pretty good.
