FOR NOW
Yeah, its a damn shame. A DAMN shame.
I agree. I typically enjoy single player far more than multiplayer. Maybe if most of the people online weren't racist homophobic illiterate morons I'd feel differently.
Once you've been through the single-player campaign, there usually isn't a reason to go through again (achievements do help with this). It's multiplayer that keeps players coming back, because it's never the same game twice. I play a bit of both, but a great single player experience can be as compelling as anything, as Bioshock should have taught us. Single player will never go away, but multiplayer games are cheaper to make. Longer as in RPGs isn't always better, but give us more than a handful of hours for the single player game, I for one want to get my money's worth, not just training for the multiplayer aspect of the game.
I haven't succomed to any new world order or anything, but now I almost don't even think about single-player with some games. I know UT3 will have a single player mode, Will I play it? maybe, will I play it before multiplayer? No. I know that I will however be playing through half life 2 again and ep1 and ep2, because that is the kind of single player game I love. Otherwise, I'll probably skip really good games like Assassin's Creed because I can't enjoy it with a friend. I just don't have enough hours in the day to play a single player game, but I can jump into a 40 player deathmatch and frag bitches for 20 minutes just fine.
