a different Steve bought the studio? Could Halo: Combat Evolved, a legendary first-person shooter on consoles, have given Mac gaming the boost it desperately needed in 2001? Could the Xbox have found a different killer app? And what might an Apple-dominated game industry look like today? What if, instead of Microsoft’s then-CEO, Steve Ballmer, buying Bungie. Instead, the game revolutionized first-person shooters on consoles and became the crown jewel of Microsoft’s Xbox. That said, the series' most recent installment is one of the largest Halo games to date, ensuring that those who prefer a single-player experience are still well catered for.It’s a surreal clip: The “iCEO,” complete with iconic black turtleneck, proudly introduces Jason Jones, Bungie’s co-founder, but not before hyping Halo as “one of the coolest I’ve ever seen!” Of course, Halo would not end up as a third-person shooter, like in this clip, nor would it launch on Mac ( at least not immediately). In fact, many of the series' entries are surprisingly short, especially when compared to some of the single-player campaigns found in other popular FPS franchises like Metro, Call of Duty, and Doom. Updated February 14, 2022, by Thomas Bowen: The Halo franchise isn't really renowned for its long story campaigns, with the developers instead opting to focus on quality rather than quantity (well, that and multiplayer mode, of course). Where available, campaign completion times are based on averages from. Those releases aside though, here's every Halo game's campaign length, ranked from shortest to longest. RELATED: Halo: The Most Overpowered Weapons In The Entire Series, RankedĮvery Halo game is included in this list except for the remaster of Halo: Combat Evolved because it's the same length as the original and Halo: The Master Chief Collection because putting six campaigns into a single game makes it unsurprisingly long. The length of first-person shooter campaigns has been relatively consistent since the release of the first Halo title but there is still some variation in length. A franchise that has now spanned more than two decades, Halohas seen plenty of first-person shooter campaigns, along with a couple of real-time-strategy and twin-stick shooters.
