"The Good
Core combat formula is engaging throughout every campaign
New Halo 2: Anniversary cutscenes are fantastic
Slick, intuitive menu organization

The Bad
Online multiplayer barely works"

Still, a 6 seems a bit low

How many points would you give a Mario game where "jumping barely works"?

Oh come on, we both know thats not the samething. With MCC, you have like 4 single player campaigns from 4 different games so at least, its not all bad. Granted online is one of the main focuses of Halo but for $60, you are getting 4 different games and all of their single player still works at 1080p 60fps so at least, you can do something while MS gets their online sorted out. If Mario's jump bearly works, then you would have a hard time getting passed the first Gomba in level 1-1. I would have given MCC at least a 7-7.5 for the single player alone considering how many games these days get higher scores for much less content.

What if I told you that the combined time of all singleplayer campaigns combined is a mere fraction of the time people spent in multiplayer. If they play the Singleplayer at all.

I stand by my analogy. Also it says "barely" so that means you will be able to jump sometimes :)
