Actually, Nate, you said:

You are only experiencing half of the game if you don't have online.

Half is online, half is offline.

-More players
-No screen peaking/ all the annoying things that your friends may do.
-You can play with friends that may be far away

@Scourge. I was saying if you didn't have the online capabilities (PSN, XBL, etc.)

Okay, but what makes Online better than Split Screen, other than the availability of players? I simply can't see why online is such a big thing, considering all the lag and so on involved.
I would say because you always always lose screen and resolution per player (excepting FIFA etc.)

Actually, Nate, you said:

Half is online, half is offline.
QFT, because you pointed out that Natef was contradicting himself.

See, I gave a reason! That better, SOTG? :gawe:

But then if you only ever want to play a fully single player game, then you aren't missing out.
Yes that sequence of words I just said made perfect sense.

If you have an internet connection. You have PSN, and who doesn't have internet? And everyone who buys MW3 will spend about 6 hours beating the campaign, then they'll dive right into multiplayer and probably never touch the campaign again, and that's ok. Call of Duty's main draw is the multiplayer, that's just the kind of game it is. For, other games, like Fallout 3  it's the story, or the fun of just kicking ass and doing whatever you want. Different people like different kinds of games.  This entire argument is pointless.
im just waiting for meganerdbomb to come along and kick things into gear.

Well, yes. That is pretty obvious (once again).

@Beefdaddy: Good, you? You'll have a good time here. I'm pretty liked here, so just don't make some mistakes I have in the past and have a good time.

How you make Alarm Clock Pizza is:
Step 1: You buy an alarm clock from the store, and then you have to break it and put it in the sauce.
Step 2: Fold the sauce in 5 slices and put it in the dough.
Step 3: Paint the eggs with a pitcher of a clock showing what time you want to wake up and eat pizza for breakfast.
Step 4: Put the eggs in the dough.
Step 5: Make it flat into a round shape and draw the time you want on it.
Step 6: Put some old steel to prevent other peple from stealing it.
Step 7: Make it flat and cut into 60 slices 1 for each minute in 1 our.
Step 8: Put in the oven set the timer to 30048813.2884 seconds and put the temperature on 'Volcano' setting.
Step 9: If you think it is take to long, then get yor alarm clock and set it to now so that it will ring and you can take it out.
Step 10: Take it out uv the uvin wen it is redy and go to bed. In the morning eat pizza and also eat yor hands bi mistake.

I sense troll vibes from this guy, especially after his last question.

Also, GF is now the resident cool guy ?

Not really, but it's an introduction befitting of someone as awesome as myself, wouldn't you agree?   :approve:

MNB sums it up best. I don't dislike online but I'm a single player gamer.

I have no problem with you not playing multiplayer, but not having online on a console and a game is taking away part of the experience that is given to you.

So that is the reason why playing online increases the entire longevity of the game.

Seeing as though most good games have some sort of a multiplayer experience, not having online is taking away half of the game.

So if you don't have PSN on the PS3, you are not getting the full experience.
It shouldn't have to be though. Online is only 1/2 the game because the singleplayer isn't good enough on its own. A truly good game doesn't need multiplayer.
Better than GK since 2009.
I think SM is a pretty cool guy, eh builds unicycle-bots and doesn't afraid of anything
