I have common sense and its common knowledge how long they have been working on ME3, pretty much the same as for ME2 give or take a few months, a game in which had no multiplayer. If the game is a double disc and not a triple disc. Then how do you think the MP fits in? Most likely by cutting out, or not putting in other things that could have been there for the sake of putting in the multiplayer. In this day and age its stupid to expect companies to go above and beyond. All they care about is the bottom line. I should expect it to be better than ME2 when its been made in the same timeframe PLUS adding on multiplayer? Thats just not going to happen....and history has shown the same. There is PRECIOUS few games that exist on the 360 that feature multiplayer as well as stay true to the single player. Because you can maybe name 4-5 games that do doesnt prove a point either.
I said that it was probably planned for IF fhey have included it. Who says that it means that they spent less or cut out content from the single-player game? I'm sure bad things have happened in other games, but it does not necessarily indicate that that is what's happening here. I think BW would be shooting themselves in the foot if they gave short shrift to the main single-player campaign.
Addressing the disc issue: I think the number of discs is likely irrelevant since you probably can manage to fit the necessary information on two discs, OR they might even add a third disc if necessary. I'm pretty sure that such things are subject to change until such time as the gane goes gold and/or the packaging is finalized. I don't know the logistics of how it would work out on a console (I have a PC), but I'm sure that it's also possible that some of this multi-player stuff could be downloadable. I know that in SC2 all these newer official multi-player Blizzard mods that have come out since the game was released have, in fact, been downloadable and were not included on the main discs (I know that Left 2 Die wasn't original to the game - I just started playing it recently with a friend).
The only thing that I think is stupid is seeing people endlessly jumping to irrational conclusions. And yes, citing examples of other games that show that you can have solid single-player and multi-player gameplay in a single game IS proof that it is possible whether you like it or not. At this point, I almost hope the multi-player rumor is true even though I have no strong feelings about it, mostly so that the people whining about it for 20-something pages will have to deal with the multi-player incursion into their most holy single-player experience. *snark*
