I shy away from the multiplayer aspect of most games because it's not what I'm interested in. I buy games for the single-player modes because that's where the story usually is and I believe that if your game can't stand up as a good game on it single-player alone then you've done something wrong. Unless of course your game is intended to be more oriented around multiplayer than it is single-player.
I also think people need to stop trying to shoe-horn multiplayer into every game that comes out. I can't tell you how frustrated I was that in order to get certain items in LBP's single-player campaign it required multiple people. I understand it was a game where connection between players was really pushed, but I saw no reason why the collecting (items damn near required to build anything in the level creator mind you) should rely on the teaming up with others. If I wanted to put up with other people while playing that game I would have jumped to the community page and played player made levels.

So rarely do I use online multiplayer that it is hardly worth mentioning. The only console game I've ever played online was Red Dead Redemption and that was more as a curiosity than anything. Online multiplayer is not a selling point for me. I'd much rather have a solid, well-crafted single player campaign. Or, if there is multiplayer, I'd rather play with people who are actually in the room with me.
i don't play too many games online, and even of those few they're only console games. PC gaming is full of HAX and FAIL. i just recently started playing from home because i got broadband, and i play games with my friends mostly. the only game i play freely is MW2 but that's a love/hate relationship.
just last week, my friend unwittingly brought up the topic of me being a black guy, and people i had been playing with just fine had become all "******" this and "welfare" that.

Hahahaha, Don't get me started on PSN Plus... Not worth it, not in a billion years.... Well... maybe... I'll seeSantos50 said:
But yeah. I do play online. Not all the time because it gets me too angry. I play TF2 quite regularly but TF2 is too funny to get too angry at.
I sometimes play COD lol what? No not MW2 lol no... Do I look like an American Frat boy? (Well you can't see me but Shut up!) I play WAW or 4 on occasion.
The game I play most online (Or should I say GAMES) is Battlefield.
Pure awesome, free games, discounts, and most of the offers (if added up) in only the first month shows you actually save money if you get PSplus. And that's just the first monthSantos50 said:
If you live in the UK, you get LittleBigPlanet for free...
If you live in America you get 15 months for the price of a year.
Also, PSplus members will get early access to future betas and demos.
OT: I like playing online with intelligent people. If "that kid" (you know who I mean) comes online and can't shut his mouth, I'm going back to the lobby.
It's always more fun to play against thinking humans than AI. Bots can be a different case.
