I really do think its stupid to buy a game only for online , why not get the full moneys worth

 

Simple. If I enjoy multiplayer more, and strive to be the best I can be at it, then time spent on single player is a waste of my time. Everyone has different likes, and dislikes. 

And it's not like I don't play any single player games. I love all of the Zelda and Mario games, and play all of them all the way through. However, if I play the first bit of a game and I am not enjoying myself as much as I do when I play it online then I feel that I am truly getting more of my money's worth by playing it online.

 

 

But why not just see the campaign through, the online isnt going away anytime soon, but whatever though i mean its your money if you want to waste it by not playing the whole game then fair enough

 

I see what you are saying, but I still think my time is better spent doing what I enjoy the most, and in the case of a select few games, what I enjoy the most is their multiplayer component. By your argument of getting your money's worth, I can say only this. If I enjoy Halo 3 multiplayer 2 times more than the single player campaign, then the 20 or so hours spent playing through the campaign were 20 hours where I was having half as much fun as I could have been had I spent that time online.

I'm admittedly a multiplayer junkie, so for me, getting my money's worth often means skipping the single player if I find the first few missions/levels/ to be kind of bleh.

 

 

Like i said, mulitplayer online isnt going away anytime soon ,so to try single player wouldnt hurt, how do you know you wont enjoy it if you never played it through, some of the missoins towards the end of COD 4 are amazing, and i think by not giving it a chance your really missing out
