CoD4 as short as Portal?!

Call of Duty 4 is nearly upon us and reviews of the game are slowly beginning to appear with some very interesting revelations pertaining to the single-player portion of the game.

OXM UK reviewed the game in their December issue, and cited a short single-player campaign as one of the main downfalls of the title, going on to say that the game only takes "...five to six hours on Normal difficulty."

So while not as short as portal, but five to six hours?!  Guess that puts this game into the rental column *grumpily cancels his preorder*

5 to 6 hours on normal? That sucks, big time.

CoD2 is still the gold standard for the WW2 games IMHO.  I was hoping that this 4th installment would take it to the next level and while that 5-6 hours of game play might be some of the best ever created by a group of developers, im not sure $10/hour is worth it.

Ive heard the multiplayer is absolutely crazy good, but with Halo and TF2 taking up most of that available time it just seems like a waste.

Maybe spring for $30?
