personally i don't get how people can play sp for extended periods of time

even with open world games like gta after a while if you beat all the challenges a sense of monotony sets in

with mp for me that feeling never settles in because you're playing real thinking opponents and you have to constantly adapt to different play styles and develop new strategies to win

for me at least sp content alone can never equal the kind of replay value i get from a game out of mp

I look at it in reverse to be honest. No MP game holds me for long, but if the SP is great I will play it like there's no tomorrow. I played 60 hours of GTA4 in only a few days (almost none of that in MP).

Most MP games are the same. Different outcomes, different players. But it's all the same still. You spawn, you shoot, you kill, you get killed, repeat.
