You know what shocks me? People that bought MW2 and never touched the single player campaign!!

In my mind, this is terrible. I love to be immersed in a world when I play games. Single player campaigns allow just that. To me, a game is more than just a tool that helps you "own" people and make them feel bad because they're not good at a game you just play all the time.

I just hope games will have singleplayers for a long time. That's what was always fun.



Random game thought :
Why is Bionic Commando Rearmed 2 getting so much hate? We finally get a real game and they're not even satisfied... I'm starting to hate the gaming community so f****** much...

Watch my insane gameplay videos on my YouTube page!

Yes only if the muitplayer is crap and you can tell they put very little effort.

People didn't buy it for the Sp but for the MP that's why.Really it's no surprise those types of games are out there.

i blame activision and halo, these days people forget about the campaign.


You know why this is a stupid comment? Because the CoD and Halo games have great campaigns. Disagree if you want, but the masses seem to enjoy them.

Consumers clearly enjoy multiplayer and developers try to deliver. I just wish there was a bigger focus on local multiplayer as opposed to graphics (I'm looking at you Sony).

But c'mon, the team worked their butt off to deliver a somewhat impressive campaign. I can't believe some people really missed out on it.

That's like if I paint something beautiful and the only thing people notice is my signature on the bottom right corner.

I never planned on playing COD MW2's campaign as I was so annoyed they had no Coop. That was a mistake by me, but there still is no doubt that they made it short. I still will say WaW was better because it had coop. If the next COD is not coop then activision is showing they really don't care about the campaign.



When has bots, I often get more playtime out of bot matches than the actual campaign.

 

FPS campaigns = predictable, linear, short. Once you beat it, all the surprise is gone. "Let's take cover behind these red barrels!"

Multi = unpredictable, way more "holy shit" moments, shit-talkers on the enemy team provide entertaintment/motivation, many shooters are adopting some kinda leveling/experience system to keep you coming back for more.

 

Props to shooters like MGS4/Fallout3 - once you're done with their campaigns, there's actually reasons to go back and play again for unlockables......that arn't trophies.....

Humans are competitive by nature(some are not), especially the younger crowd, they prefer to test out their skills against human opponents rather than against the AI. In my opinion, the AI in shooters are a lot more predictable than human opponents. Myself, I don't play miltitary shooters, be it 3rd or 1st person, because I just can't get into the story, my kind of games are more along the lines of Hitman, Metal Gear, XII.

other then the campaign of cod 4 the other cod games had bad campaigns. as for halo i only played the campaign of the 1st which was great and the campaign of halo 3.

when people pick up cod to or halo they only go online, these days shooters are rated by gamers only on their multiplayer.



Being in 3rd place never felt so good
