I might as well answer the thread while I'm here...

I play both socially and by myself. I enjoy a good single-player game a whole lot. I also enjoy the camaraderie of multiplayer games.

I play one computer game - Quake III Arena. Specifically, I play Capture The Flag in the OSP competition mod. It's a great game, but what makes it really special is the friends I have through it. I've been gaming with the same group of guys for three years now (and have been playing the game for almost four), and it's been a blast.

On consoles, I love playing games with other people. My friend Andrea and I recently beat Halo (Xbox) co-op. We're working on TimeSplitters 2 (Xbox) now. A great party game is Super Smash Brothers Melee (GameCube), which my group of friends and I play regularly, along with Soul Calibur II (Xbox, GameCube and PS2 - I own all three). (Yes, fighting games are popular in my bunch.) I enjoy playing soccer games with Paul (tokenidiot on the Cellar) - we've logged a bunch of hours together on FIFA World Cup 2002 (PS2 and Xbox - he has the former, I the latter). I have a ton of games, and if it's good fun to play multiplayer, then I almost certainly do.

But as I said before, I definitely enjoy a good one-player game. I'm looking forward to Half Life 2 and Doom 3 mostly for the single-player aspect. Metal Gear Solid (PlayStation) and Splinter Cell (Xbox) are both single-player adventure/action/stealth games, and are two of my favorite games ever. Way back in the day, I enjoyed Metroid (NES) and earlier this year was totally absorbed by Metroid Fusion (GBA).

I know people that like to play games only by themselves, and I know people that only play with friends. I'm not in either of those groups. I enjoy a good game, period - whether it's by myself or with friends.
