I don't understand why you're having such a conceptual issue with the idea of the game. If people want to have a story they certainly can, have you seen the commercial with the level on saving a princess? The overall game may not have a story (that remains to be seen as far as the levels given with the game) but each level can have it's own story. I don't see how that's any worse than an overarching story that is almost never touched on at all. Super Mario Brothers was certainly fun don't get me wrong. But emotional and meaningful storytelling it is not.

 

To be fair, the concept is fairly hard to understand, and when you are eventually forced to bring up the fact that a large portion of this game relies on online connectivity and other friends who also own the game, it might be a harder sell to the demographic, than say, Mario.

There is a probability that most of the people who purchase this game, and don't have access to PSN, will possibly end up dissapointed.

We should make it clear to potential purchasers that to get the most out of this game, you need an internet connection that can support PSN. If you don't have one, then the game just isn't gonna be as good. That's a fact that's not true for many of the best single player games. MGSIV, GTAIV, FFXIII, Mario Galaxy, Zelda, and DS or PS2 game, these games aren't vastly improved with online connectivity. That's not a point, but it's something to keep in mind. Adding online as an extra feature is one thing, requiring it for a complete gameplay experience is another. Just ask the people who signed the petition trying to get Mass Effect to drop its online registration requirements.
