What will happen to games like Demon Souls, Uncharted 2, Fable once we are in a new console generation? Will the devs just close the server? I'm pretty sure Demon Souls will not play without the online conponent.

Demon's Souls and Fable can be played just fine offline.Archangel3371
Any time my internet drops, Demon souls goes back to the main menu. So there is a work around? Also, what about later on in the game when you have to face an online player as part of the story?

You can still keep playing in offline mode you just have to start up your game again if you lost your connection and went back to the intro screen. I'm not sure about having to meet an online player to advance the story part but I have been told I was invaded by a phantom that made it seem it was an online opponent but was really just an AI opponent.Servers eventually go offline. That's why I treat online components for what they are: neat optionals. The core game must be offline. A game focused on online has zero collecting value for me.Black_Knight_00

I agree 100%
& people have the nerve to say Single Player has no replay value.

I did it today, but died before I could find the player.

Any game offering a single player 'horde' mode packs hundreds of hours of fun for me: MW3, Gears of War 2-3, Halo Reach, etc... The problem with gamers today (mostly younger gamers) is they get bored when they're not playing against other people. That's something I don't understand, if anything playing online detracts from the experience: people cheat, camp and exploit bugs, you don't see an AI doing any of that. Plus there's lag when playing online.Please Log In to post.
