Not that there's anything wrong with looking at the telly and fiddling with your joystick on your own, but it never quite seems to be as enjoyable, does it? You really need someone in your room to play with for the best experience. Or several people in fact, which can be even better. Not always easy to find enough people who are willing though.

Not too sure about the whole internet thing either. I mean, you can say what you like to them, and if that's your sort of thing... that's okay I suppose. You really want to be able to see the look on the face of your companion, or hear their voice though.

So yeah, multiplayer gaming is definitely a lot more fun than single player gaming, or online gaming.

Yeah, I love a good gang bang on Perfect Dark. I do ceat though, I grab other peoples sticks and wobble them around so I can make my escape through the backdoor.

:-D

I like single player gaming as well as multiplayer. I'd prefer to play games like MGS, Max Payne and Championship Manager on my own, where as most sporting games are best with more than one person.

I live in on a remote desert island, so I to play alone. I did once ask a parrot for a game of Virtua Tennis, but he wasn't interested.

I find football games to be great multiplayer, much more enjoyable than playing on your own. Although, I'm still happy playing on my own.

I can also play Championship Manager on my own for hours no end. I think its becasue I set my self very high standards on the game so there is always that challenge for me to live up to.

Multi-players are great with as many people as possible, and 1players are more enjoyable sharing game time with a friend.

I don't play any computers no more unless it's multiplayer with friends.

I'm waiting for GC before any single gaming comes back into it.

I have quite a few friends who like playing multiplayer games, fortuantely.

I much prefer gaming with my friends than on my own or against a name on the internet.

The point in competing seems stronger, and more sociable!

Over the years I've become very jaded after many bad experiences with customer services, you have bucked the trend. Polite and efficient from the Freeola team, well done to all involved.
Impressive control panel
I have to say that I'm impressed with the features available having logged on... Loads of info - excellent.
