That's just fucking stupidOriginally Posted by Tsubaki
See, I think I picked the wrong option because I prefer the campaigns to the deathmatch/multi VS. modes. HOWEVER!!!! it's ONLINE CO-OP that I look for MOST in a game, because as previously stated: I'm older now, my friends are all over, and games for me were always more fun with my friends. It was a social get-together, a reason for some of us to hang out after school. The best gaming moments I've had have mostly occurred with my friends.
With online co-op play you get to work together, which is good because I get stupid competitive (though I've chilled out a lot) and the co-op is pure fun. Online is almost better than local because everyone gets their own screen!
My ideal gaming situation is playing through an awesome story campaign co-op with a friend (or three) in the same room, each with our own screens. That's only happened a few times. I think I haven't bought CoD4 yet because there is no co-op mode. Gah...I remember the original Diablo was like, the best thing that had happened to me. We played multi on the PS1 , and we played through it like twelve times.
There are only a couple of games I prefer playing with no one else around: (even SP games I'm used to having my brother or gf watching me play) RPG's where a lot of my personality is injected into the game, (like KOTOR and now Mass Effect) and any of the metroidvanias/similar style games.
I should have just left my one line response post up there, but I'm at work and it's dead.

That's why it is great to have a group of ppl to play with like TNL. There isn't any pressure to play, but when you do get online (at least XBL), you can join alot of games that we are playing.

I voted offline, I really like offline co-op, and secret of mana is still my favorite game ever.

Because I live at least >1 hour away from my friends, online is very nice.
I'm also an Internet hermit.

You don't have to be smart; you don't have to know the facts, you just have to be confident.

Single player is the most important part of the game IMO. I can take or leave multiplayer/online play, but leaderboards are a nice feature - allowing you to indirectly compete against other players.
BioShock is a great FPS made for solo play. Multiplayer combat just wouldn't fly here. F.E.A.R.'s enemies put up a decent enough fight, and part of the fun is catching them off guard before you take them out. Instant Action missions serve as a score attack, kind of the F.E.A.R. counterpart of Half-Life 2's Survivor arcade game.
I disagree. MP gamers are just a different sort. Some 1P gamers can be MP gamers as well.
Finished in 2021: 8 games (PC: 4, PS4: 2, PS3: 1, X1: 1)

It really all depends on the genre of game for me. One good online FPS can keep me amused for years, so I tend to buy fewer of them even though they eat up most of my gaming time.
I usually only play through single player adventure or platform games once or twice and then sell them, so I tend to buy a lot of them even though they don't give me a lot of value for the money.
Most of my favourite fighting games are a decade old (98 was a good year for the genre) so I don't buy them anymore, although if I get SSF2HDR, it will be for online multiplayer exclusively.
