Do PS3 Owners Have Any Friends? - Blu-ray Forum

0tim0 · 07-16-2007, 08:31 PM

As a PS3 owner, I love to play games with my friends. But it seems that most of the games (and all of the new ones) are only single player games (or multiplayer only online).

Even Motorstorm, a typical driving game, doesn't allow you to race against someone in the same room. That's ridiculous

I don't like playing games by myself and I don't want to play online with a bunch of anonymous people. So I haven't been buying any of their new games. All they need are some multiplayer modes -- heck, Resistance has them -- and I'll buy.

The console does support four controllers. You'd think they'd make some games that used more than one. Or do they just assume that PS3 owners don't have any friends?

Am I alone on this?

I feel you. I thought that motorstorm woulda been an absolutely must have if it had offline multiplayer... Online is cool, but there's nothing like racing with 3 of you buddies split screen! I think that the ps3 supports up to 7/8 controllers... not sure though.

It doesnt matter either way because all of my friends have a 360.

We play Motorstorm, but since it is one player at a time, the other player drinks while they await their turn.

I like the way you play that game. You should have to drink more when you crash though.
