Why is there a bias against MP only games?

Sorry to break itto you Vek but local mp is a thing of the past. At least here in the US, if a game doesn't have online mp component, it doesn't sell as well as the big dogs. People/kids don't go to each other's house to play games anymore.

Halo 5 splitscreen issue was blown out of proportion by a vocal minority, like many more issues that became a trend to hate on 343i. But that's another story.

I can't argue with that. You're right. It's the reality. I just miss it.

The problem is that new gamers of today, don't research about games. They just go with what their friends are playing.

It blows my mind. When I was a kid, I used to ask for a different system from what my friends had so we could trade system and experience different type of games. If we wanted to play together, we could play soccer in the afternoon together.
