I remember a time when most games didn't had multiplayer,and having multiplayer in a game was something that would make gamers glad that the developers added it.
Today multiplayer is getting more attention that single player in most cases.
I don't "hate or love multiplayer",that's a too general statement to do.
I generally enjoy more playing with other friends in the same room than online.
The fun of watching your friends faces when you kill them is very nice
I rarely like online multiplayer.
Actually the only online multiplayer games I liked where Quake Live and Return to Castle Wolfenstein: Enemy Territory.
Quake got my attention because it was the fastest,most andrenaline rushing game I've ever played,while RTCW:ET was the deepest one I played and required great teamwork and tactics,and it was the first FPS multiplayer that featured an "objective" mode.
To enjoy an online multiplayer,it has to be unique and too innovative or I just don't care.
But local multiplayer games where you can just put 4 controllers in your console and/or link it with another console in the same room,is very funny and I like it very much.
