who said one had to be sacrificed?. its posible to have both you know.. im sure there are some fps games that have both good single and multiplayer modes.. cmon this title is supposed to revolutionize fps games.. and what other multiplayer fps game has tight controls that this game boast on having?.


 Like I said in my previous post, if they added multiplayer they would have to split their attention and focus.  Even with a larger team, it's still one team that is splitting their focus.  I would much rather have an incredibly highly focuses and polished single player game than a single/multiplayer game where the developers had to worry about the single player and all the worries that a new multiplayer game brings to the table.

Like I said earlier, the added effort just really wouldn't give back enough.  The people that Retro is targeting isn't looking for a multiplayer experience, their looking for a fantastic highly polished single player experience.  Bringing multiplayer woudl attract some people, but if they had to sacrifice effort on the single player game it just wouldn't be worth chasing away the target audience for a small group. 


you sound like the devs are bound to fail if they added multiplayer... again in my previos post having good polished single and multiplayer mode is possible.. i understand that it would take a lot more effort but im sure they can pull it off.. have you played MGS 3, though not a very good example cause its multiplayer mode isnt that good, but its single player mode is polished as hell!. that way the game caters to the old metroid fans and gain new ones..

"bringing multiplayer would attract some people" ?. if its great like 100's or 95's in review scores cause of its controls and multiplayer, you think it will only attract some people?. i think it will attract a LOT of people, even "fps nerds" that are so used to the mouse if they heard the wiimote is a lot better would buy wiis, not like wii sales needed more moving, but still, i bet it would attract a lot of people..
