And that's just the way it is. XBox Live is a fantastic online system, and the catalogue of XBox games grows ever more reliant on that system for their high quality. Nothing wrong with that. Lots of people play them online, they're high-quality in that regard.
I feel that ultimately the PS3 will have slightly more success worldwide than the 360, while the 360 will have the American market... Of course, with the Wii dominating them both.
100% offline gaming is my deal. I'd rather devote 100 hours to a storyline than to online multiplayer matches. |
That's unfortunate for you. Online gaming is only going to get bigger- meaning video games company are going to focus more on this aspect and less on the "single player experience". It will still be around, of course- but you will see a drop in the number of quality single player games.
