I have 4 1/2 days worth of online multiplayer in COD4, plus another two days in COD:WaW. I've enjoyed every second of both. No single player FPS adventure could ever equal that.

In other genres, it would depend, but I really only do shooters and sports games online anyways. For sports games I would choose multiplayer again because of friends and online leagues.

Half-Life 2 + SP mods... or Deus Ex + SP mods.

 

I have Half-Life 2. I still haven't finished it. I'm about an hour and a half in. If the core experience isn't remarkably enjoyable to me, I doubt the mods will be.

There's still the issue that there's no human element in single player + mods to keep me coming back. That is the defining trait that keeps me coming back to the online component in games, the change in each match because of human behaviors.
