im shocked so many prefer single player, for me its all about the multiplayer, sure I enjoy a good single player campaign, but I personally can forgive a bad single player experience for an excellent online experience.
I think online is where the replayability lies and thats a big deal, i don't want a game u just play once through the campaign and never play it again!
Multiplayer all the way. I tend to play very few singe player games and those select few I do play are generally very highly regarded.
Generally I like both equally but it depends on the game. Some games I like to play multiplayer mostly. Others I prefer singleplayer. For example, I have never played Civilization 5 online because I know the games would take way too long to finish, but I almost always play Starcraft 2 online. For multiplayer I like typical lobby style multiplayer, not MMOs. I do have fun playing MMOs, but I usually play solo in the outer world, only grouping up for raids and pvp.
i like both, but i must say multiplayer.
online games get me hundreds and hundreds of hours fun, when singleplayer games usully can do 20-30h (at the very best). i'm not the kind of guy who would usually replay singleplayer games.
good, challenging singleplayers are so rare these days. in online games, the challenge comes from other skilled players, and the gameplay constantly varies because of human factor. and it's social.
that said, i'm enjoying the crap out of Dark Souls atm. it's social AND singleplayer. pretty unique game gem. almost the perfect "3d-metroidvania" i've been looking for.
i was a hardcore multiplayer fps gamer from 2003 to 2006. but then oblivion came out and i started to play single player games instead.
I'd say co-op is my number one mode type.
Multiplayer is fun for the rush and chance to play with friends, single player is great for the chance to kick back and play at my pace, with a game like, say, Borderlands 2 or Saints Row 3 I can kind of get the best of both worlds. Kind of, you don't quite get too many games with the complexity of Fallout offering 4 player co-op I suppose.Â
