The attached article brings up a good question. Should multiplayer and campaign have separate review scores?

definitely. i hate when people dump on a game because of the story and people saying "story matters". on an average good story game you might spend 20+ hrs. for multiplayer many players spend hundreds of hours and have alot more fun than watching cutscenes and exploring things. we have movies, shows, and books also guys. not saying story is bad or anything but it seems to me for the majority of "gamers" the story needs to be there and is necessary for most or all video games. like hell it is. ive been playing destiny since day 1 simply because of the crucible, iron banner, and trials. the other stuff is just extra which is why i count destiny as an above average game. i think instead of reviews assigning a score they should just review the game and what it has to offer. there are many 7s and 6s out there that i bought for like 10 bucks which absolutely blew my mind. but its never gonna happen so whatevs.

No. A review's purpose is to weigh the pros and cons of said product and make a final verdict on the product as a whole.

Definitely. Every game should be scored on several different categories, not just as one whole. There should of course be an overall score but it should be a culmination of all other scores. So all games should be judged on: Campaign, Gameplay, Multiplayer, Sound design, Visual design.

I think so. It would be great for people who only want a game like Halo or Destiny for PvP or Story.
