I thought this was already mentioned?
The co-op would of been fantastic provided it was the SP campaign just with the other guy as the girl...maybe..ok as I type I remembered she isn't around with you all the time, maybe not the best... |

Multiplayer is far overemphasized. Every game needs it for 'replayability'.
Companies like EA now won't develop a game without MP forced into it.
And yet, some of the best games ever made are SP only - God Of War, Batman, the original Bioshock.
MP can be a fun add on, but increasingly it is the focus of the game, and hopefully this starts a trend back towards creating good, story driven, SP gaming experiences.

I don't understand the need for MP at all to be honest. I mean CoD and BF is a given, but other games really don't need them.
Good thinking on this one! |

@8
I totally agree with you and lets not forget games like Infamous, Darksiders, or Skyrim.
Plus I grew up playing basically nothing but SP games since that's all there was, and lets face it, those are some of the best games in the history of gaming with stuff like Mario, Final Fantasy, Contra, Chrono Trigger, etc.
And as an added bonus, I personally feel that SP games are a lot easier to plat as well and have more varied and better trophies. |

brilliant news,online multiplayer is a pain in the ass.
more games should stick to single player instead of just going down the online multiplayer route as a cheap way to fill a game with content.

@19 - I completely agree. I didn't focus on some older games, as MP really has become a recent trend.
While it is cool, and can add to some types of games - in particular, racing games can be quite enjoyable in online MP - often it is just stuffed on to give the sense of the game lasting longer.
I miss the days of first person shooters where there didn't need to be MP. It's not just about the trophies, but rather the SP seems like an afterthought in order to deliver yet another MP edition of the same old stuff.
Companies and consumers now expect MP - and I suspect MP is designed to slow down trade ins and decrease used sales. Crysis 2 and the 6 month trophy come to mind.
The drawback is that MP costs more to implement, and must cost a lot in maintenance - I wonder if it is really worth it at the end of the day.
I wouldn't want MP eliminated, but I would like to see the emphasis shift away from MP heavy games. More than anything, I would say the rampant increase in MP focus has been the biggest disappointment of this generation, at least for me. |

| Thank God...BS2 suffered a lot because of the emphasis on MP in terms of story, so I'm glad 2K is stepping back on it. MP killed Assassin's Creed and Halo for me, in my opinion, so perhaps this is the start of a trend to see if developers will follow suit - return to makinf quality SP games instead of over-emohasizing MP implementation just for the sake of replay value. |

| hehehehe...I never thought I would see this day. Multi isn't bad, but like everyone else, it's just given too much focus instead of Single player. Let's be honest people, Bioshock really doesn't need multiplayer. If you liked the Bioshock 2 multi, that's fine, but Bioshock can make a huge impact with it's story alone. Im really getting interested in this game, I have never played the first or the second and there both at Video Ave to rent (I have seen videos of both games). Next time I go there, That's what Im getting, I haven't played AC3 yet, but Im not passing Bioshock over it, with all the talk I heard about the games being masterpieces, it's about time I get to see what they are talking about. I'l attempt the plat, but from what I heard, the first parts are near impossible for the "I chose the impossible" trophy. |

Finally common sense prevail,
Bioshock was great for the solo campaign, no multi
Bioshock 2 was not that great & one of the main reason was too much time spent on multi
so yeah, I can't wait to play Bioshock Infinite |

| @8 you're totally right. MP is often a business decision to keep people playing longer (read: not trading it in). Couple that with Online Passes and a bigger focus on MP events, the whole thing is geared to try and stem the tide of folks trading games in and others buying secondhand. Sometimes the MP can actually add to the SP (look at ME3), but other times it is just tacked on at best and an excuse to pile the SP characters into a deathmatch arena. |

| i personally don't mind multiplayer, but when they make up stupid trophies where they are based on luck rather than skill it really pisses me off. same goes for games like GTAIV, Resistance 2 or Far Cry 2. why one earth do they do such stupid grind trophies? and then we have the likes of games such as Killzone 2 or Uncharted 3, banning peeps cos they wanna boost more dumb ass trophies. good examples are AC Revelations, Black Ops 2 or Max Payne 3. Yes you have to spend a great deal of time online but it ain't forever with those titles and it's damn fun too! but of course i'm all for co-op, Resident Evil 5, 50 Cent Blood On The Sand and coming soon i hope Dead Space 3. I like to play online just not forever is all. |

| While I enjoyed the overall idea of Bioshock 2's multiplayer having a "story," the online was still pretty half-baked. Let's also all keep in mind that Levine basically had nothing to do with Bioshock 2 (the only entry in the franchise with multiplayer) and realize that this should not be a surprise. |

I wouldn't really care one way or the other, but it annoys me immensely when they make us grind their dumb MP modi for trophies.
On the other hand, maybe they would've had some really nice ideas? It doesn't have to be deathmatch and capture the flag all the time ...
Maybe some sort of race with obstacles on these railways in the sky. |
