Halo 3 is said to have a short single player campaign and will be the downfall of its score similar to Heavenly Sword. Great gameplay, but too short of a campaign.

even if this game would turn out to be as short as Heavenly Sword there are some key differences

4 player co-op

Multiplayer

Halo Forge

with that said it would of course be disappointing but the game would still have plenty of value

Halo in general is a more polished experience. The single player campaign seems to be longer than HS not including co-op and a robust online play. Don't think theres any real comparison but thanks for trying.

Yup, the co-op and mp will really nullify "most" of the short single player drawback. But really, is there a short single player campaign when compared to other games? I've heard around 10 hours and that's more then Gears (Look at that score ;) ).

Nah, it's said to be the normal 10-12 hour campaign. That's 4-6 hours longer or twice as long as Heavenly Sword. Plus you have 4 player co-op and multiplayer. Bad comparison.

Halo's SP seems to just be something tacked on to give you some connection to the world and the characters for the online fragfest at the heart of the game. The reason people still play Halo 2 to this day has nothing to do with the campaign. I guarantee they aren't playing the campaign over and over.

Heavenly Sword is awesome, but Halo 3 should have a lot more value for the price. Also, as Heavenly Sword has taught us, a 6-7 hour story can be totally incredible. If Halo 3's story mode is as cinematic and immersive as Heavenly Sword it will be a grrrrrrreat success!

Halo 3 has 100 times more replay value then HS does. Just look at how many people still play Halo 2 online.

I'm still playing the campiagn over and over again here :|

So, your saying that Heavenly Sword is the ONLY game that doesn't need more than 6 hours of gameplay? Thats really odd.

Bungie had already acknowledged that Halo 3 is their longest in the series.

I trust bungie, and I really enjoyed the length of Halo 2, because it was just long enough without you having to retrace your steps like in Halo 1.

This whole myth that Heavenly Sword's only flaw was that it was short, and that it would have gotten a 10 if it was longer, is getting out of hand. There were other complaints about the game, in particular that it was repetitive.

Why don't you come up with a reason as to why he failed? That's like having a comback like "Oh yeah?". I guess that's your best comback. :lol:

Like a bunch of people have already said, Halo 3 has a TON of multiplayer options. Co op for up to four people, Forge mode, Some of the best Online multiplayer you'll find on a console (based on my experience with the beta), etc.

I hear that Halo 3's campaign is about 10 - 12 hours which, by itself is longer than Heavenly Sword's campaign which I hear clocks in at around 7 hours. Sono, I do not think Halo 3 will be docked for a short campaign.
