Say what you want about Lil Wayne, but he is practically on every other song on the radio station. It seems like I can't even turn on the radio without hearing Lil Wayne on someone else's song.
It depends on the game. My preference is to buy a game with a strong multiplayer component because I feel I'll get the most replay value out of it. No matter how good a single player game is, if the campaign only last 8-12 hours then I don't feel comfortable spending $60 on it when I can just rent it. So I think a $60 game with a brief, but extremely good single player campaign without any multiplayer can be criticized since you will not be playing that game very long. However, I do recognize that there are games that have extremely long single player campaigns ( e.g. Assassins Creed 2 and Dragon Age Origins) and offer tons of value without having any multiplayer component.
I want to know your input on all of this? Do you think that most gamers stereo-type each other as fanboys too much? "
Does it matter? There are negative connotations with particular aspects of media other than video games. For example, if I told my friends that I enjoy watching tv shows such as Desperate Housewives and Sex in the City they may call me gay, but I don't care. I know that I'm not and I watch these shows anyway because I find them entertaining. Same thing with video games. If I enjoy playing a particular video game, who cares what other people think?
Gamespot made some weird decisions with their awards. Nobody's going to buy a PS3 just to play Demon Souls. People buy a PS3 to play games like Uncharted 2. Gamespot also confused me by:
(1) Giving Killzone 2 the best multiplayer award over Modern Warfare 2. Street Fighter 4 was not even nominated for this category. (2) Not even nominating Shadow Complex for best downloadable game. They gave the award to Comet Crash. I've never even heard of this game.
