Believe.

Believe that, near completion of the game, you battle Two, to Three hundred brutes, with 50 to 100 marines behind you.

Believe that, instead of another cliff hanger "We'll just let you figure it out" ending, you'll actually know what happens, whether the Chief dies or not.

Believe that, a game, which I have literally spent the last year masturbating over, will be the utmost perfect game of all time.

This is what I thought that Bungie and Microsoft meant when they played these Believe adds. When they showed the Diorama, when they let stores like 7-11 give out pre-orders.

No, of course not. I can not believe that playing the game on easy(just to get back into the swing of things, I haven't played Halo since the beta, so I was very rusty) will be completed in less then 8 hours.

I Killed everything in sight.

It took me 6 hours.

Bungie, this problem was addressed for halo 2. We believed that you wouldn't make the game as short as possible. We believed that you would make the single player campaign worth the money. Sure, multiplayer is great, but a deep, rich single player is more important then how many hours i log into live.
