Which do you prefer single player games or online?

I like both but spend most of my time online. You have a lot more fun I feel, especially in search and destroy modes.

Online, I get bored of SP games so quickly. Need a community of people to chat and play with, it's not so much about the challenge but rather knowing that i'm not alone.

i enjoy being able to play with other people, use tactics/communicate, but it is damn nice to not have some northern monkey shouting **** in your ear :p

Doesn't help my gaming name is either Monkey! or MonkeyLuvver :D.

I also wouldn't like to listen to a southern donkey. Touché :p.
 
SP. Ask me the same question back in 1999-2003 and I'd have said the opposite, as I had oodles of time for HLDM, TFC, CS, and MMO's. Now its completely the opposite as I just haven't the time to dedicate to online gaming.

Bar Bad Company 2, I find todays shooters too occupied by teenage k3wlios so my interest wanes incredibly quick. BC2 was the only game, which I actually did enjoy since TFC, CS as it had more mature gamers.

I prefer single player mmos(basically mmorpgs). I can have all the fun of a single player with the added bonus of shunning and ignoring all the other people.
 
Well if you'd have asked me 7-8 years ago I would have said that multiplayer is the only way to go. It was starting to mature, ADSL was being rolled out and it was the way the future was going. Quake III, MOHAA, COD, CS all those beat any SP game to a pulp.

But....Jesus online game has now become the most annoying part of gaming and tbh thinking of giving it up. The games have gone backwards, COD:BO being a prime example of how a franchise has been butchered and the soul completely milked out of it, the communities are dire or none existent, and the games themselves are seen as a cash-cow because online has become mainstream.

Where have the Halcyon days of online game gone to. Its just depressing because the likelyhood of the MOHAA, and early COD days ever coming around again are nil.

Same could be said for mmos, most old timers will say that the likes of UO and EQ were the golden era of mmos, now to be left with everything being warcraft wannabe.

Single Player for me.
For shooters, horror games, etc., I like to play through the story (even if its a linear shooter), and when I'm finished, I'm done. There's only a few games I go back to for replays, like doom 3 and AvP2.
For racing games, I play for the campaign mode, and when I've completed it (and maybe before), I move on to another. I have a couple I'm switching between as I work through the goals.
I don't much care for mastery of the game for its own sake, so I wouldn't, say, play a race over dozens of times to get the perfect score. Complete it in first place once, and I'm generally satisfied and move on the next.
