Yep, they are made to be a one time only event. There's no real replay value in seeing the same set piece and unskipable cutscene over and over. And for some reason it seems like they believe that they can't tell a story properly without all of these cinematic additions...far from it. If they really wanted to take cues on how to make a brilliant campaign and intergrate gameplay with the story, they could have taken a few cues from Half Life's organic storytelling method. But I'm not sure they are really that interested in making a good, replayable campaign since most of the focus is directed towards the MP.
