This is the first time I've used the Like button.

It seems like every forum tries so hard to force their own memes. In a reddit forum I frequent, you can just about count on someone repeating the Meme of the Week in every thread--and for some reason, getting upvoted to the top. It's annoying.

Something something DOOMED.

That fact that people took what EA said seriously is just hilarious. Who gives a F what the say!



Pocky Lover Boy!

Yeah, I was just thinking this 'SP games aren't dead' was becoming a sort of meme around here.

It can go along the ranks of 'Doomed since 1889' and probably some other ones I'm missing

No. Or did occur a significant change in the mindset of the "EAs" in the industry?

Well then, lets keep it up then.

 

Btw. this isnt about single player games only.



Hunting Season is done...

All genres are alive.

Also, you are the only one who brought it up. So yes, you can stop now.

Persona 5, Ni No Kuni 2, The Last of Us, Horizon Zero Dawn, Yakuza Zero/6, Uncharted 4, Detroit Become Human, God of War  - yes, we love high quality singleplayer games with fantastic gameplay, awesome story and interesting characters! the good sales figures are an important sign for the games industry, that's why everyone is happy. And the God of War is a impressive game :)

Millions of gamers are against EA and Microsoft - they have so much money, but they not invest big and not in good single player games.

The right term is "EA is wrong". "EA was wrong" would imply that EA changed their stance and learned something ...

Also it can't be mentioned often enogh that "EA is wrong". If you do a google search for "EA is wrong" you should get at least 1 million hits. Right now you only get 181.000. So we have to post it a few more times.

The way the OP titled the thread makes it sound as if he wants people to stop saying that single player games are alive and well. lol.

But I get what he's saying. Single player never died. It just took a back seat. Kind of like rock n roll. It's alive and well, burning brightly from the underground. The same is true for single player games. PUIG and Fortnite may take the headlines, but the single player games are still doing well.
