Look, Single-Player People Are Just Better

I’m not denying this is territory I’ve covered before. There’s no disguising that I’m a fan of single-playing gaming over multiplayer. Finally it’s time to just say it.

The New York Yankees of First-Person Shooters Welcomes the Negative Feedback

Battlefield 3 Isn’t Competing With Modern Warfare 3, But it Still Wants to Win

The way I see it, Battlefield 3 and Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 aren’t really competitors. They’re just two modern shooters that happen to be coming out two weeks apart from each other.
