I'd rather play a SP game over a MP any day of the week...BUT there are some genres that MP is more important to me then the SP..like fighting games, BlazBlue, MK9 etc or a few FPS like BF and CoD.
I like both. Multiplayer just adds a lot more value to the whole game but there are games which singleplayer I am REALLY looking forward to like Resistance 3, Uncharted 3, Batman Arkham City and Assassin's Creed Revelations and I'm almost as equally excited for their multiplayer.
Battlefield: Bad Company 2 has put me off multiplayer. The online kind anyway. The lag, disconnecting, and even freezing despite having a fast, stable, wired connection that loads high definition videos in no time is simply too much of an annoyance. That is why I have gone back to inFAMOUS. Also, local multiplayer games like LittleBigPlanet are cool as well. It depends on what kind of multiplayer really.
first player is more fun for me most of the time. Most people dont talk on psn so it feels like your playing by your self anywaysdontshackzmii
Never really understood that notion. I still know that I am playing others online and enjoy it because of that. If people talked, it would mostly cause issues. Anonymity causes too much dickery.

some times people talking can be a pain. Little kids , trolls and so on can be a big problem. Hell i cant count how many times have i heard What is love or snsd spamed on steam.
That being said its great to talk with people. Its great for team work and you can make new friends. No one talks on psn and when they do most of them have awful voice quilty it almost sounds like its being steam from a 56k modem.
I'm just reading comments here and they say that multiplayer is very boring compared to single player. I disagree. In multiplayer anything can happen, while in single player like Uncharted 2 (not dissing Uncharted in ANY WAY it's my fav franchise) you are just repeating the same things over and over again.
I have to go with SP. Multiplayer was fun for a few years but after that I realised the harsh truth about it... all you do is run in circles and shoot people on the same couple of maps over... and over.... and over...... and over, so on so forth.
It's a tie for me right now. Back when I had only a 360 I didn't have Xbox Live. So I bought all these fantastic JRPG, and other long games to get my money's worth. Never understood how fun multiplayer was until my 360 broke and I got the PS3 and PSN for free obv. I loved U2's single player and multiplayer equally, and I find myself doing that with most good games that have both options.

Maybe because I'm only in my first couple months of it, but even knowing what you just said is true I still find MP addicting as hell.
