"normal"...

But yeah, it's probably predictable "copy/paste" level design again.

It's time for something totally new, not Combat Evolved on steroids (rehashed again and again, ad infinitum)...

Post that again while holding up a piece of paper with your forum tag on it.

people have completed skyrim in 2hrs 16 mins, point being yes you can complete it in a short time but you'll miss most of the things in the game.

Halo has always been easy on the normal difficulty, any experienced player will have it done in a similar time

Skyrim is soooooo different you can't compare at all. The amount of additional side quests in Skyrim compared to halo 4 is not doubt staggering.

Halo =/= Skyrim. There is nothing to do except the main mission. It's not like there's any other quests that could prolong it for good reason.

Wait i dont understand tho how u can excuse the fact u played on normal difficulty, which would explain how quickly u beat the campaign! Im a fair guy, i know where to praise and criticize halo, but there is definitely some bad logic here The link he showed states that we should start off on normal because heroic difficulty will be unexpectedly harder than we think, since this is a new class of enemies. But there is no denyint still that playing on normal would make the game shorter because it is easier! You can beat dishonored in four hours on easy difficulty just running through it. The people that go nuts saying thats the actual length? logical fallacy! Dishonored took me 12 hours! I played on hard and enjoyed my time. Amy game is going to be much shorter when its easier difficulty. The same went for batman arkham city too! Halo on heroic or legendary dificulty, each level has always taken 40-60 minutes. Being around 9 levels, every halo game has always been 7-9 hours on heroic or legendary and thats def the case here too.

I even accidently turned on the skull that makes you restart after you die on the Mammoth level, wasted 30 minutes thinking the checkpoint system sucked before I realized that, probrably could have finished in under an hour but oh well :P

Oh man what a joke. This took 3+ years to make with 300+ people? Its obvious GS is trying to get the Xbox to "catch up" in exclusives so they are giving out good scores like candy.

Yes one game. I already said many times 360>>>PS3 in 2012 games. And now lenght matters? I guess starhawk>>>>Halo since it's longer. Haven't played it but let's say it's longer for the sake of argument.
