the focus of their gaming... 100% on-line... that's just not the type of gaming I'm interested in at all.
That's currently my feelings, Bill.
And I'd go so far as to say that even FPS games are more appealing to me as SP games, not MP. The MP gaming experience, in my view, has been a letdown and something I lose interest in quickly. I prefer RPG's, FPS SP missions (I'm tearing through Doom 3 which has a surprisingly deep story, if not one we've seen before), and military strategy gaming...
Sims are a close second (1up.com had Rogue Squad and TIE/X-WIng in the same category recently, and even somehow had their heads up their asses enough to think X-Wing Vs. TIE Fighter was somehow BETTER than X-Wing, TIE Fighter, all their expansions, and X-WIng: Alliance which was 100x better as a SP and MP game than XvT, but I digress... Anyway, Rogue Squad and the XW series aren't the same game, but again I digress.), and to me Sims are only solid on PC...
But yeah, MP is fun for a little while but I'm sad to see that the new XB is heading that way almost all together. I'll wait to see how this system plays out I think... What the games are that are offered and such.
