10 Good Single-Player Games With Lame Multiplayer

Gamespy: Just because you can add MP, doesn’t mean you should. Here’s our Hall of Tacked-On Multiplayer Shame.

WeskerChildReborned4185d ago

I heard Far Cry 3 had a pretty good multiplayer, i'll be playing SP thought.

Conzul4185d ago (Edited 4185d ago )

Really? I heard it was mediocre compared to the SP.
BTW is that Joe Flannigan? :P

Good list, except for the Riddick game. I rather liked the " tag-you're-Riddick " mode.

ChronoJoe4185d ago

I heard it's basically COD with a map editor.

Which actually sounds pretty good.

Why does COD not get ripped on for being COD, but other games get ripped on for being even somewhat similar?

e-p-ayeaH4185d ago (Edited 4185d ago )

Far Cry 2 MP was decent(and still is) and Far Cry 3 MP seems pretty solid if not better.

Relientk774185d ago

I liked the Rage multiplayer, but the problem is no one played it

seanpitt234185d ago (Edited 4185d ago )

Not surprised nobody played it single player was great tho

e-p-ayeaH4185d ago (Edited 4185d ago )

Did the author already played Far Cry 3 MP? that´s funny because he doesn't seem like he played it.
I think Bulletstorm MP is pretty good but none played it.

InTheLab4185d ago

Resistance 3's mp. Clearly an afterthought. How do you go from one of the best in R2, to complete trash in R3.

BattleAxe4185d ago (Edited 4185d ago )

Totally agree. I think Insomniac just wanted to get the development of the game over with and move onto their multi-platform career. Its unfortunate, because it had one of the best single player FPS campaigns that I had played in quite some time.

deep_fried_bum_cake4185d ago

I thought that the multiplayer in Bioshock 2 was good. It didn't hold me for very long and there were very few people playing it, but when I did play it, it was fun.

A Matter Of Trust: What The Game Industry Should Do To Win Gamers Back

Skewed and Reviewed have written an Opinion Piece covering issues in the gaming industry, how current issues were issues years ago, and what can be done to help restore consumer trust.

Nothing. It's up to the gamers to stop consuming content from companies that they don't agree with.

Garethvk3d ago

How do you know if you agree with it or not unless you play it? Which without conventions forces gamers to rely on trailers. Perhaps Demos should be made more frequently. But companies need to do better as well.

anast3d ago

Wait until release. Watch Gameplay. Exercise patience.

Garethvk3d ago

But is that not what they have now? Tons of gameplay or are you talking about watching actual gamers play it versus the trailers and streams? The big issue is that some companies pay streamers and influencers and they create content but for me; that is hardly a fair, unbiased, and factual look at a game.

1nsomniac3d ago

Get rid of the suits in the industry and job done!!

Garethvk3d ago

They usually are attached to the money sadly. It would be nice to have gamers in charge but you have so much money invested that business people are needed. Hence the issue; you need people who know business but are also gamers who know have an eye to the community. It sounds simple in theory that if you give gamers quality games that they want to play; money will be made. But that is not always so.
