I would have used your review to decide my purchase of the game, but then again you didnt even play it multi (dont have live?) so your review is as good as void (to me) as I think a lot of people are getting the game for it's online feature. Until someone plays it online and says it's crap like the single player feature, we're still planning to get the game.
One question, are CS and RS3 1 player only online? I cant find a straight answer anywhere. Now a game like TS2 that would be great online :)

You're joking right?
That's the whole damn point of Counter Strike. It was never even designed with a single player in mind. The reason it works is because you're fighting real people online. The terrorists have minds - they can think, they're human. It opens up an infinite realm of depth and possibilities.
As far as I know, the single player was just tacked on to satisfy console owners wanting a 'proper' game. Gimmicky and rubbish, most probably, but the multiplayer is so incredibly sublime that it really doesn't matter. If you take that game back, you really are missing out.

You mean can you have split-screen multiplayer gaming online? In that case, no, and I don't think any game offers that. Except for possibly the Warp Pipe project for GameCube.

mav-er-reeeek
Yes, what is it?
PGR 2 does split screen Live. You can have a guest on it you see. In fact you can have more than one I think.
Crimson Skies too
Well I'll be.
only two games can have more than one player (sharing a screen)? That's bad :( especially if you have brothers and friends who want to join in on the online gaming.
There may be more, I just don't have any other live games at the moment.
