I just beat the campaign for Halo 5. It took me 11 hours and 52 minutes. I beat the first 2 and a half missions on legendary with a friend. I then finished the rest of the game solo on heroic. Yes, I spent some time looking for intel (75/117), and I only found 1 skull. Anyone that beat the game in less than 5 hours must have played on easy or normal without looking for any collectibles, and literally rushed through the game. If I played solo all the way through on heroic , it would have taken probably around 9-10 hours.

Btw, the campaign wasn't bad, I enjoyed it, but not as good as previous Halo's.

Meta is now 84 because of Gamecritics who punished the lack of split screen and the disappointing single player with a 55

In all honesty I understand that many people are disappointed with the game. I found the story to be lacking and the lack of splitscreen to be annoying.

Im sorry but theres no fucking way that Halo 5 is an "average" game.

84 is no average, Watching Dogs was not average

I wasnt talking about "84" im talking about "55"

You can nit pick all of its flaws and you still get a product vastly superior than most games.

The campaign is short but and enjoyable and many will replay it. A short campaign is better than a long boring one.

The story is good and cutscenes fantastic, I get the impression people saying this aren't playing the games. Angry complained about story and clearly isn't following it, he didn't finish 4.

Agreed, on misleading advertising.

No split screen sucks but is common in most games. Its a plus for that have it, Halo 5 is only game losing points for not offering it.

Forge and big team are coming. Big team is coming very soon actually, like maybe days?

Dumb AI is something new in games? I've certainly seen worse.

That isn't really a boss battle per se, its just battle done in the game a few times. Not as many times as Angry Joe lead you to believe.

The unlock system always took a lot of time to unlock everything. There is more content in Halo 5 but you can't buy the exact items you want.

I'm not sure what the complaints about the aiming system are. It feels fine to me.

I think some critics are giving it a better score than it deserves and some are doing the opposite. A perfect score is ridiculous but a bad score like 55 is even more ridiculous. You want to beleive the game sucks though so you sdie with the negative scores.

This could have been a better game and it will be when more content comes, but its still my pick for best shooter of the year.

Despite the fact that all signs point to a solid overall Halo experience. 84 is quite the fall for a prestigious series.

Seems fair to me. I personally rate it 7.5/10 and I've never rated a Halo game below 9 before. 

I'll rate when they put everything in. Haven't completed the campaigns but I'm enjoying the hell out of Arena and Swat

Siperior to what games,even worse games? Halo 5 is notjing more than a generic,bland,boring and average shooter.It's fine if you like it,nut it is not a great game by any measure.
