Re: IGN ODST Review (Ethics in journalism edition)

: IGN gives it a 9.0.

:
: http://m.ign.com/articles/2015/06/10/halo-the-master-chief-collection-odst-review

: Two things kind of bother me: 1. The "review" is just a short
: description of how ODST differs from Other Halo games, and makes zero
: mention of Firefight. Which ostensibly isn't a bad thing, but it might
: mislead a number of folks who think they're getting the full ODST package.
: It should have at least been worth mentioning. I wonder why they didn't.

: 2. Ryan McCaffrey is probably the biggest Halo fanboy that I've ever seen,
: and surprise, surprise, he's always the one previewing/Reviewing Halo
: content (he gave the MCC a 9.0 even after the issues became apparent),
: and you can tell when it's not him (Spartan Assault getting a 6.7). I
: absolutely 100% guarantee he's going to be the one reviewing Halo 5, and
: something about that just doesn't sit right with me. I'm no tinfoil-hat
: wearing guy, but...

: Although I totally agree that for the price and the game, ODST is still
: amazing.

IMO, 343i could've released MCC as a campaign-only game from the start and it would've easily deserved the 9.0.
