Singleplayer Campaign vs Multiplayer

Rusty24 · 06-13-2012, 01:12 AM

Which part of video games do you like to play more? While I do play multiplayer more often, I believe there is nothing like a good campaign mode. It allows you to do much bigger things and you have an opportunity to do many things you couldn't do in multiplayer. If a game's story is engaging enough, it could be the highlight of the entire game. That is why Uncharted 2 is my favorite game of all time.

Co-Op Campaigns. Take a good campaign, then add the ability to play with a buddy. 9 times out of 10 you have vastly improved it.

By co-op I do mean with a friend, as playing co-op with randoms is about as fun as putting your nuts in a grinder as you will inevitably get the dumbest motherfuckers on the planet for teammates.

Singleplayer. Actual plot and you can play at your own pace. Plus you can cheat all you want!

Multiplayer's always the same way-too-good players using the same cheesy tactics on the same damn map over and over and over.

Depends. It honestly depends what mood I'm in.

But if I could say it now, I'd vote Spartan Ops.

Co-op owns both, but I'll settle for single player. A good campaign experience sticks with me, but a random match in some FPS is quickly forgotten, no matter hire epic it was at the time.

Single player. I don't care for multiplayer game modes.

It comes down to what type of game it is.

If it is a Zelda type of game then I want to play by myself, lights out and embracing the magic.

If it is stuff like BF, CoD, Diablo3, etc etc then multiplayer can be fun.

Spartan Ops.

That's a Campaign with co-op elements. Its like Firefight with a story, and characters.

However if I had to pick between the two, I'd pick Campaign.

The games I'm interested in playing MP keep shutting the servers down by the time I get around to putting the disc in the console.
