Are you kidding me? Same game engine, same enemy models and animations for the most part, likely a huge number of recycled textures and sounds? Sounds like an expansion. "It's the length of a full campaign!" is no defense, it took a hell of a lot less work than halo 3 did for the reasons stated above, it comes with less maps than the Halo 3 shipped title, which is irrelevant anyways since much of the community has already purchased the maps available on the disk, and firefight, while admittedly cool, does nothing to justify the price either(Protip: It's essentially a minigame, and not a difficult one to create at that, as successful networking code for cooperative play with multiple enemies was already in place for halo 3.) Bungie is making a full title releases profits from an expansion. Get taken kids.
Call of Duty 4, Call of Duty 5, and Modern Warfare 2 all use the same engine. So, using your facts, all of those are expansions. So is Gears 1 and 2, so is L4D 1 and 2, so is Call of Duty 1 2 and 3, so is Bioshock 1 and 2, so is Rainbow Six Vegas 1 and 2, so is F.E.A.R 1 and 2, so is all the NFS games, so is all he Rock Band and Guitar Hero games, so is all the NBA, NFL, NHL and MLB games.
So, almost every sequel ever made is an expansion, using the facts in your post.
