8-10 hour SP campaigns? Haven't the last four games had 4-5 hour campaigns?

MW 1 and 2 were 7.5 hours on hardest difficulty for a decent player, give or take.


Anywho, I think people consider CoD sequels as expansion packs because the formula is basically the same in each one. The SP campaign is completely linear and scripted, with obligatory vehicle, sniping and stealth segments included for good measure. You are always fighting communists and/or terrorists. You are always playing as a member of either the British or U.S. military.

I can through that at virtually any series of games, though. If the content is new the content is new. If the engine is new then it's certainly not an expansion.
I get calling it a frustrating game with huge, glaring flaws. I get saying it's not fun. I get saying it's overpriced based on content. But I don't get calling it an expansion. An expansion is a very specific thing. This may be low on content but it doesn't fit what an expansion is. It's pretty clearly a sequel.
