Or do you ten to play with friends or strangers online?

Since I got my Xbox 360 I do go on Xbox Live alot but I still say the majority of my Gaming Experience is Offline.


I always wanted a purely Co-Op game, or at least a key part of the game to get me into Xbox Live more, as I think there nothing better than playing through a game with someone and you both kicking their ass. Its a bit more of a laugh aswell.

Your views?

Bit o' both.

Depends what game it is, but I like to give them all a test on LIVE at some point.

My single player game is normally done with a friend though, makes it more fun.

Playing with yourself can get tiresome if you do it too much.

That's basically me. I tend to play the single player first before unleashing myself on the multiplayer!

Xbox Live is the way for me. I spent about 3 months straight playing pretty much nothing other than GRAW online.

Got right into some of my single-players now that I've got a messed up connection, though. Completed GRAW and Lego Star Wars, and I'm working my way through a Master League on PES6 as well as my ever-continuing Franchise on Madden.

So yeah, single-player gaming is good. I'd rather be on Live, though. :(

I know you're joking but that seems to be a view alot of people have, they go where the Achievements are. Maybe a Mod could add it to the list. :D

Done, D.

Yeah, I like playing for stats too. I wish there was a list on GRAW, because I'd probably say I've played about 5,000 games or something insane like that.

Xbl all the way. I play with friends or friends of friends 95% of the time though.

There are a few single player games I like, but generally play about 80% of the time online or am in private chat otherwise. Thank god there is private chat on the 360. :D

I play with myself all of the time now that im single......i used to play with the ex all the time. Now i do enjoy playing alone, but have to admit that playing withovers is just as good in certain games. i dont play all of my games over live, but the ones i do are great.

I wasnt entirely sure that i wanted to get connected to live as i am an older gamer, who didnt play pc's and the thougt of a multiplayer session was a group of lads taking turns bashing a couple of pads. But now that i did i have never looked back.

So it's both for me all of the way

I spend 98% of the time doing SP missions, MP isn't good enough for me yet, Top Spin 2 was good but they constantly lob and do risk shots pretty much all the time, SR STILL lags plus it's full of team killing fuds.

I am like you though, I would love a top notch co-op game then I would spend more time on live.

I would say its 90% online action for me. I prefer to play against human opponents rather than computer AI.

Its a lot more fun having someone yell abuse at you for taking them out from across the map than have a body just flop in front of you.

A mixture of both for me too. I prefer playing with my mates but I'm not adverse to playing with randoms either :). At least when you play with your friends you usually know their strengths and weaknesses in what type of game you play. When you play with strangers you can't compensate for that because they are unknown to you obviously.
