[QUOTE="ShangTsung17"]starwarsjunky: if thats the case, how then can u explain certin downgrades to the length and content in story mode campaigns such as bioshock 2 for example. compare the first bioshock (which had no multiplayer) to the 2nd, there simply is no comparison, the first one was funner, longer, more detailed, list goes on..... simply BETTER in every way. do you really think thats just coincidence??? trust me it isn't. dude i've seen so many games suffer tremendously because of multiplayer being added in sequels i can't even count. if i were to try and name them all i'd end up writing a book... lolstarwarsjunkyi havent played bioshock 2, so i can't comment on that. but look at uncharted. the second game improved on pretty much everything, including length. while even adding multiplayer modes. and no, i don't play much MP at all in games. it doesn't bother me one bit when they don't put it in. both uncharted games were 3rd person dude, and good one's at that, i have them both, i absolutely luv uncharted 2! and i thought the first one was great as well even though most say it sucked. anyways, i'm talkin about FPS games not 3rd person.

Just wondering loved bioshock 1, got bioshock 2 sealed not sure if i wanna open it.. People say its nowhere near bioshock 1 so is it worth playing? how good is the story? any sick twists like the original?Darthdaverr90stick with the original dude, trust me... the 2nd is a joke.
yea but only if multiplayer is completely left out of bioshock infinite which i seriously don't think is gonna happen unfortunately.... i've said this before and i'll repeat- i think the problem can be summed up in one word (money) as long as game designers can continue to profit off this annoying stupid gaming trend, they're never going to stop shoving multiplayer down everyone's throat. and ofcourse games are always gonna suffer from it. sad to say but the only way this would ever end would be if all these net play geeks would stop they're online play insanity which i'm sorry... is NEVER going to happen. not in our lifetime anyway... :(I was running into this problem as well and ended up getting AC: Brotherhood, but that's not the point. It seems like the only fps games with a good sp are bioshock 1 and 2 (I actually prefer 2), maybe Singularity, and yeah that's about it. Brothers in Arms Hell's Highway may be a decent length since the mp craze came after that. I don't count the orange box since HL2 has been out already. Really, I was going through my games and realized I only have seven fps games mainly due to the fact that I don't see a point in spending a lot of money on a game that's only 4-5 hours long. I'm hoping Battlefield 3 will have at least a decent length (hopefully 8-10 hours, I know not really that big but it's still better than the standard 4) though I'm not getting my hopes up. Plus, even if you get a game that's short they usually want you to keep buying dlc for the mp to get more money, just look at COD and KZ2 and how it pretty much failed with MAG. Well, at least next year we get Bioshock Infinite, that shouldn't disappoint.

you are soooooooo 100% right! it seems nobody understands what makes a game great anymore, from the very second a game is mentioned, all u hear is *muliplayer! multiplayer! multiplayer!* i find myself wishing somebody would just gag all these stupid little net play obsessed geeks, maybe then we could finnaly get a GOOD game for a change....killzone 3, crysis 2, and bulletstorm all had great campaigns. too bad most people completely ignore that and simply whine about the multiplayer or lack thereof. im almost ready to say "**** the gaming community." people have totally lost sight of what makes games great.
