Sometimes i dont a damn about the SP of a game, (COD4, Resistance 2) and only want to play the MP we all know we buy COD for MP, same with bad company, the storys sucked and i had no care for them. They should give us the option to buy mp for cheaper, say 20 for bad tacked on ones and 40 for the sp (bioshock 2) or 40 for good mp and 20 for the SP or co-op portion (COD). It also allows us that want the rich graphcial experience of out high end pc to enjoy the SP there and leave the MP for another system. if a game is MP centric I always get it for my ps3, so thank god Crysis 2's MP sucked lol, even tho im waiting for the DX11 patch.

Um sure I guess. But then CoD wouldn't make as much money seeing as how most people never touch the campaign.

They know you will buy it anyway for £40. They would only lose money that way

Only if they focus and actually try to give us a Campaign since it is being sold seperately I don't care about Multiplayer so if it makes them flesh out the campaign to be a lot longer then yes it is a good idea.

If it is just the same campaign seperate from Multiplayer then no because those games only focus on Multiplayer and the single player is an afterthought.

Bad for developers because production costs are too high for this to happen. If we go back to the old days, sure why not? But, I still doubt they would allow this to happen because they want as much money as possible. So, $60 is where it's at no matter what.

Then developers would focus even less on campaigns.

Companies like Activision could either make $40 selling just the multiplayer, or $60 for the multiplayer + lackluster campaign.

I think Activision would prefer making $60 per copy sold than $40 since I doubt most CoD players would purchase the single player games.

Or at least not charge extra for it. You know. The "Live" fee.

Yeah sure that is fine as long they come at lower price. I would love to buy CoD SP only for lower price, i don't like the mp.

I could go for that as long as they don't start charging 60 for Multiplayer and 60 for Single Player (if anything that's what they are most likely to do)

I stopped buying games for $60 because of lackluster campaigns, i would never pay a dime to "unlock" the multiplayer portion.

Who's stopping them? I don't know if that would work though. If the final price is somewhere around 50-60 €/$ it wouldn't make any sense to sell them separately. They would probably put some ridiculous price for at least one of them and that would be just sad.

They are allowed to right now. The reason publishers don't is because it doesn't make sense to split your price between two halves of your game for consumers to choose from, since if they want one half they would likely buy the full-priced whole game anyway.

Hell no. If you don't like SP, then just don't play it. Simple as that.
