You are full of crap...in order to beat the game on Legendary, you would have to beat every mission in 6 minutes...not posssible.....you can't even beat the PoA in 6 minutes....
Yes you can. I've done PoA in under 5. But not on legendary ;-)
Anyway, it's pretty easy to prove it's impossible. My roomate and I do speedruns of levels on normal co-op when we're bored (Normal tends to make it possible to almost never need to fight on later levels, while still being very easy to die if you make a mistake). Our total game time, *excluding beginning/ending cutscenes* is a bit over an hour and a half. Note that this is doing stuff that's impossible in solo such as skipping rooms in AoTC (and also using the bridge jump), skipping short sections of Pillar of Autumn, clearing out two dropship locations at once on Halo (framerate hell, but it's fast), falling through the floor in Silent Cartographer to skip all sorts of crap as well as having someone drive fast in a jeep as the cartographer is activated (this makes half the enemies in the level not spawn), head-jumping in the library to skip sections, abusing deaths in Keyes, using both players to make the engine room in the Maw easier/faster, several divide-and-conquer techniques on Two Betrayals (this and Truth and Reconciliation are tied for our longest times), abusing the fact that the sword elite in the control room of T&R will open the exit for you early if you lure it (thus allowing you to skip the entire huge cutscene) and a crapton of other extremely unreliable stuff or things that are flat out impossible without co-op. That being the case, if our fastest time on NORMAL is over an hour and a half, you don't have a snowball's chance in hell of doing solo legendary in < an hour.
