Topic: Which is most important to YOU! - Local or online multiplayer - short answer essay.....

Which has more mojo?

Online. I don't play multiplayer that much, so having people available whenever I feel like it is best.

That's a toughie. I think online is imortant, but games that overlook local multiplayer just piss me off. Playing people online just isn't the same as getting some people together in a room.

Online, and I don't care for local multiplayer anymore. It really doesn't help me much when most of my friends are either out of reach, or not even in the same state/province/country.

Local. I have a lot of friends that are over all the time. Online is all well and good, but I a like to actually interact my opponents. Mario Kart and Brawl multiplayer lose a bit of their charm when there's no smack talk involved.

Online. I don't get together with my friends that often, so it's great that I have a way to play games with strangers or play againsy my friends from a distance.

that's funny =D

Offline-Single-Player.
There's somebody who wants fun, experience: Mii
And maybe used to time and pace on my own.

Oh, and I mean,
Online and local.

You're killing me, Buster.

What's a tirth?

Seriously? In this generation it's a flat-out atrocity that we should have to choose between either.

Being a totol loner local multiplayer doesent do anything for me and online is full of angry childen

Online is very important, but nowhere near as important as four dudes gathered round the same console reveling in manic multiplayer. THAT is gaming!

I say online is more important to me, since my sisters hate playing games and i live nowhere near my friends

None really, I'm a solitary player, I like a full game to play and think of any kind of multiplayer as an extra, stilI, for the time I've played videogames, I've enjoyed playing local multiplayer more than online, besides it doesn't depend on running servers, those are not forever y'know.

Local, actually makes u have to actually get friends and be social (horrible i know) whereas online...strap urself in ur basement and play some random people that makes u feel like u have friends but really...they don't count. Offline shud be priority, video games and wii especially are made so many people can enjoy it at the same time. Online is just boring, passing the controller along in the line. I guess if u dont have friends to play offline with its not a reflection on the developers, its really the player...its a message in disguise i say. I always have friends to play with, so offline will always be FTW, online can just be the side show if u have a good online. It is cool to have both tho, but ya, offline is the best.

EDIT for those who argue i play with my friends online instead of calling them up and playing on the same screen, i just dont get it. Being able to mess around with ur friends and laff at them when u headshot them or beat them at the end of the race while ur beside them is to me a lot more fun than winning, not getting to see their face, and then watching them disconnect. Also, with no local games, if u have a birthday gathering or have visitors over, really sux for u if all u can do is have one person playing at a time

Local. When you have friends over, it's ready to play.

Neither. I like to play alone. Always have.

Hate Local multiplayer, get a blinding headache from all those other screens while trying to concentrate on your stupid letterbox size playing area or worse just a quarter of the screen. Just horrible. Give me online everytime.
