    Yep I'm going through a bit of a singleplayer binge at the minute, barely touched my PC for a few weeks going through my PS3 SP games. Will eventually move on to my PC ones I suspect.

      Altho not as much, sometimes i just enjoy them.

      F.E.A.R. 2 is an awesome game, for SP that is. Really enjoy it, and when i finish i will most definitely play it again.
      No. Just no. Terrible game all around. Predictible, not scary at all (FEAR 1 was scary), boring generic shooter with a terrible Hentai ending. If I could get my money back on that, I would. Unfortunately it's stuck on my Steam account as a reminder that I got hosed by Moneylith. Not to mention the terrible MP since this is a single player thread, but DAMN FEAR 2 MP is total fail.

      That's true. Max Payne is amazing. I haven't played it in a few years but I think I'll bust it out after uni finals are over. Such a classic :).

                Most games I play for the SP component. The only ones I play for MP are the Battlefield series and the Diablo series. Of the numerous other FPS games I only play SP, and of course I play SP-only games like The Witcher and Oblivion (the former being far better than the latter IMHO).

                  I don't play much SP these days because I have played through all of them many times. I think pretty much everybody plays more MP than SP.

                    The last SP game I played was Episode Two. But then again, I haven't really been playing and multi player games except TF2 and L4D...

                      GTA IV has been a game i've been playing for a while in SP. Fun, the story is ok, but i just wish that liberty city was a bit bigger.

                        Just bought the Hitman series because they are so cheap right now

                        Speaking of cheap, the last two seem a lot better done than the first. I dont know who thought of automatic closing doors in the first one, but I hope they got hit in the head by one.

                          I usually don't like SP games, might play through them once but then it's back to MP again. But I don't "switch" games a lot either, I usually buy a couple of games each year but there's still one or two games I'm coming back to all the time, right now TF2 and Quake Live.

                          Crysis, Warhead and Bioshock are probably my favourite SP games. Played through Crysis and Warhead several times, Bioshock only once but thinking abou starting again if I can get rid of the horrid mouse acceleration.

                            I think its part of human nature when a story intrigues us all, and drags us in. Take hl2, its a great game with a good story, linear, but in a good way with challenges. I read this around in a psychology book (not about the half life part). :laugh:

                              There are several single-player games that are just pure joy to play. Sadly most of them are older games:

                              - System Shock 2
                              - Deus Ex
                              - Call of Duty
                              - Half-Life
                              - Commandos
                              - Diablo
                              - X-COM: UFO Defence
                              - Freelancer
                              - Sim City 2000
                              - No One Lies Forever
                              - Indigo Prophecy
                              - Grim Fandango

                              There are a lot more. Most of these games I still play. Sadly, owing to the dawn of the internet era, most games more rely heavily on the multiplayer aspect for sales. The only good NEW game in recent years that is a single player is Bioshock.

                              Most other excellent single player games, IMHO, are based of their previous builds:

                              - GTA
                              - Half-life 2 (other other stories)
                              - COD4
                              - Oblivion

                              are examples of amazing games, but they are based of on recipe.

                                For those of you wanting a long and great singleplayer game I recommend the new Chronicles of Riddick it includes the old one redone and a new game.

                                I just bought Orange Box and I am really enjoying the continuing story of Ep1 hope to start Ep2 after 1 is finished.
