Problem with online multiplayer games is, that usually games for omp are designed for it, and single player sucks. Gears of War is a good example, or Starcraft. WoW in the other hand doesn't have single player and it doesn't need one. Trend seems to be that you have a couple of hours solo campaign to train you for the online multiplayer.

I liked the single player campaigns in both Gears of War and Starcraft.

And Gears had single player mode, which was worth the games price?
