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 :)

Yea but even then, giving this game a 6 seems too little... Gamespot, by comparasion, gave Asscreed Unity a 7 and that game has tons of frame-rate issues, it is buggy/glitchy up the ass and it has micro-transactions all the way to $99 for a paid game. Its like, for MCC, at least there is enough content there to keep you busy until MS gets the online fixed which will happen eventually cause as you said, it is a big component of the franchise so it will be fixed soon enough vs if Mario can jump sometimes, there is no good alternative to keep you busy as Nintendo becomes like Sega and kills off their main mascot.

I do feel like a better analogy would have been "What if Smash Bros multiplayer (both online and local) were only working sometimes" and then I would be like, yea, that would suck but I would still give it an at least a 7-7.5 provided enough of the single player content is there to keep me busy and it has to be good of course.
