Should single players games cease to exist?

I think they should. I have so much fun playing games online that I wouldn't even dream of playing single player games ever again. I mean real people are so much more challanging than AI. Even with all the technology, AI can never compare to human intelligence.

I wouldn't care if all games were online only cause I will never play a single player game ever again. Too boring imo

There's no way single player game mode will cease to exist. Although on-line gaming will be almost a standard feature in every game in the furture but there's no reason to completely erase single player mode. :P

I agree that all games should be online.

But I disagree with the guy before you who said that mp is a shallow experience. Funny because when I play a single player game and I know that countless other players have fought the exact same enemies and seen the same movie sequences, that to me is shallow. Not online mp. online mp is the best

"so what about the people who don't have broadband? You know, some people can't afford it or can't get it in their area. So does that mean they can't play games at all? now that's just stupid. "

If you can afford a ps3 or 360, you can afford internet.

 Killing off single player=killing off the industry

 Not everyone likes multiplayer like you do. I like it, but to only get half the experience for my money is insane. Why would you want only half when you can have both?

How could they cease to exist. Some games can be single player only but 2 players games offline should cease to exist.Deihmos

Buying a ps3 or a 360 is a one-off price, whereas for internet service is a on-going payment. Some people just cannot afford to spend that much every month.

I don't have internet, so no.ocelotcougar

Bu..bu..bu...Your on the Internet now!

A majority of my favorite games are single player games. Resident Evil Tomb Raider Prince of Persia God of War The list goes on and on... If they were to cease making single player games, I wouldn't spend nearly as much on games.Telekill

And how many of them do you still play? My guess is none unless you beat them over and over.

I disagree with you so much. Games are turning into interactive movies, and if we want to reach the levels that movies have reached then we have to tell stories. I like online, but it is just a shallow experience that I will forget when the next game in the series comes out. A good story lasts a lifetime. A good online lasts until the sequel comes out. Single player is more important.BioShockOwnz

Umm, no. Single most idiotic suggestion I've ever read in my life.

No More Final Fantasy or Zelda? :o

Obviously my stance is in staunch opposition to wishing there were no more Single player games.

for how many months? Time Warner Cable has their broadband service for $29.95 for the first 3 months....then it goes to $44.95 a month.eclipsed4utoo

Get off of these forums.

I think they should. I have so much fun playing games online that I wouldn't even dream of playing single player games ever again. I mean real people are so much more challanging than AI. Even with all the technology, AI can never compare to human intelligence.

I wouldn't care if all games were online only cause I will never play a single player game ever again. Too boring imo

yes multiplayer games are fun and there should be more of them, but knockin single player games like that isnt right. some of the best games are single player...all the RPGs (FFs), Ninja Gaiden, RE series....ZELDA, Mario, God of War...dude if u never play a single player game again, I feel sorry for u.

Everything shouldn't be thrown into the online realm for for many reasons. One of them is the fact that you can't have a real fleshed out story as an online game especially MMORPG's. Also have you played any of the SOCOM games online? Talk about racially tense! You can't even enjoy the experience, in fact, it can be a complete turnoff. Being Afro-American this is discouraging, so you're almost forced to form your own little "click" because of this. I go online to expand the playability of the title but with having those issues, it diminishes the product slightly. Now don't get me wrong, I've have excellent experiences online with complete strangers but that has been too few in between. How about the rest of you guys? I also forgot to throw in the online cheating as well.....slyydevil

omg how i disagree with this. my favorite series in the world is Metal Gear Solid, which isn't all that fun online (hence why Konami is yanking the online support for MGS3 Subsistence next month). i pretty much stick to single player games. the only online games i really play are SOCOM (of course) and RFOM. there are plenty of single player games out there that will dwarf most online games imo.
