Yeah, It can be done, turns out if you run through a lot of the levels in
stead of killing every baddies in each room, you can get it done really
quick. I did the same thing.

Only some rooms are triggered if you kill everyone, and the long stretch on
some levels in waiting for other players (AI) to do it's job. Do not want to
spoil anything.

I did it under 6 hours on Normal, so it is believable your son did that. But
I can assure you that when he plays on the hardest level, (Level 4 setting)
known as Legendary, he will have to fight blood and sweat through that.

Do not be pissed, the other factor is that many people has enhanced their
halo playing skills thanks to Halo 1, so jumping in Halo 2 with little
adjustment makes the game easier on Normal.
