I remember reading the news letter section in an EGM mag about 10 or 11 years ago, right around the time of the birth of XBL. It was a letter from some teenage boy who was concerned about the future of gaming. We was worried that XBL and people's newfound obession with online MP would end up ruining single player games. The editor basically dispelled the notion, saying the MP will always be an "add on", but it turns out, the teenager was right to be worried. I think the realization of this for me was COD4's single player lasting all of about, what was it...7 hours? lol.
I'm just hoping it's a fad, and changes over time into something in the middle. If it's done right, it can add to any game. It's only when MP cannibalizes single player that I get upset.
