I haven't
played mulitplayer just yet, but the singleplayer campaign is definitely worth investing your time in.
Black Ops 2, for example, includes people who only
played mulitplayer on any particular day and those who only played single player on that particular day.
Not exact matches
If I wanted to
play non-stop
mulitplayer, I'd just stick to Call of Duty 4, their last decent title.
People asked the same thing about New Super Mario Bros Wii, and when I
played it, I finally understood why there was no online
mulitplayer.
The main thing that bothers me and it's a rather big problem, is the game is mostly online only, granted they do give you the option of
playing local split screen or against the AI in skirmish mode so it isn't completely online, but with heavy emphasis on
mulitplayer, with ranked matches and special events I can forsee that it wouldn't be the type of game I
play for many hours and instead
play for short bursts before repetition sets in and I get bored.
I think the big success of Goldeneye's
mulitplayer is that the N64 came pre-made to allow for party
play with it's four controller slots.
