I have become something. An extremely shallow gamer. I have extreme hesitation to buy any game without multyplayer. I want to get assasins creed 2 but their doesn't seem to be replay value. Batman just won serious awards at spike this year but I don't want to spend the money on 6 hours. The dlc for ac2 sounds tempting but it reminds me of my second problem. Difficulty. A big problem with ac1 was difficulty. Way too easy. Is the second harder? I want games like darksiders but I can't bring myself to put the money. The sabateur is suppsedly fantastic but again, difficulty is too low aparently. So... Good, recent single player games?
