Video Games that Miss the Multiplayer Mark

July 17, 2010 in Blog comments 4

It's true, some games just don't capitalize on their multiplayer potential. Sure they have their reasons (and they are valid) but what if the character you created as a member of an elite group was in fact allowed to team up with others?

Video games have multiplayer, anymore that’s almost a given. Multiplayer gives people the chance to go out and pit themselves against other people from around the world or it allows for a collaborative effort to achieve victory. But there are some games that either miss the mark, or totaly skip the online process altogether.

    Multiplayer in general has become more of a requirement this gen. While there are a few single player only games, they aren't as numerous as the online ones for sure.

    In some cases, like MW2, I think multiplayer ends up killing the game more than it helps it. It eventually becomes too fustrating and people give up. Games are meant to be fun, no fun = no play imo.

    I kinda want more Splitscreen Co-Op/Multiplayer in games, rather then just multiplayer online in games. I love the old days when EVERY game had splitscreen. Now, games that deserve it(like Transformers WfCT) don't have it...

    I would add Aliens VS Predator into that mix... if that was done properly I think that could have been really cool.

    Also, splitscreen should be *bleep*ing mandatory.

    They say any star wars game in the article, and then Old Republic is on the list up top there... but Old Republic is an MMO. I thought multiplayer was the entire point of an MMO.
