Today's News:
1) Valve currently rumored to be developing Left 4 Dead 3 and Half-Life 3 according to internal memos that were recently leaked. The same memos also mention a new version of the Source engine, called Source 2, is currently in development by Valve.
http://www.egmnow.com/articles/news/...n-development/

2) According to the vice president of Bethesda, the official reason why there is no multiplayer for Wolfenstien:The New Order is because both Bethesda didn't want the mode to be rushed while developers Machine Games ocused all their efforts and resources towards the game's campaign and story.
http://www.egmnow.com/articles/news/...the-new-order/

3) Respawn Entertainment's co-founder states the official reason why there is no single player mode for Titanfall is due to them feeling not enough people play or finish a game's single player mode if multiplayer is available.
http://www.egmnow.com/articles/news/...-in-titanfall/

4) ActSystemWorks states they are willing to develop a Guilty Gear game for the Wii U if enough fan signatures are generated on the official petition for the game.

That's cool, they can always release MP as DLC later, but I'm down for a strong single player game in the meantime.

Solid story doesn't matter. People buy FPS to shoot others online.

While that is quickly becoming the case, especially with the Bro gamer CoD generation, I dont think removing single player is the smartest thing to do, especially if you're trying to introduce a whole new world like they are with Titan Fall.

Like STD said, it doesn't matter if the story's good. You can have the most brilliant story in the world and it doesn't matter if nobody plays it. As it stands, most people don't really bother with a COD story, and I'm betting about as many will care about COD with mechs.

I was surprised to see as many as half of the players on Steam completed the campaign on Steam in MW2 and 3, since numbers for the Xbox and Playstation are reported to be much lower.

If they're putting that much more effort into multiplayer, I say go for it.

I think they're trying to introduce people to new maps to shoot people on.

It's interesting how two FPS games are coming out (Titanfall and Wolfenstein) that are catered to completely different crowds. Personally, I prefer a single player experience, and then afterwards I'll play some MP, and if it's a lot of fun, I'll keep playing.

People don't buy COD games for the story, like people don't watch Fast and Furious movies for the story, it's the action and instant thrills. I think there's also the problem that single player FPS games have become increasingly linear and full of QTEs, where people prefer to play how they want and move around the maps how they please.

Half Life games on the other hand, now there's a FPS where you'd be pretty annoyed if they release the next one without any single player.

Personally, I like the diversification. I mean, catering to different audiences is surely a good thing, right? Long as the products don't skimp on their supposed focus.

I'm not likely to buy either of these games, but the point remains, does it not? I'd love to have more options for single-player titles that focus on single-player. I'd also be in favour of more multiplayer only titles if it meant we saw more thought into them.

3) According to Double Fine studio's Tim Schafer, Broken Age's development has grown a lot larger than expected with the game needing to be split in half in order to ensure enough money is left to finish the game and at least have part of the game available for its original release date. The other half of the game will arrive a year later after its launch and will be free for those who paid for the initial half.
