Most games are short nowadays. I'm glad I'm able to wait until the GOTY version is out, or the game is super cheap. I hate the online aspect of games too. Most of my friends don't play the same games that I do so I prefer not to play with random people online. I do love co-op games though. My girl and I just finished Ratchet and Clank All 4 One, and Rayman. Simply amazing games. The other thing I don't like about this generation is that more single player content isn't added to the games I enjoy. Like any of the Uncharted games, I'd love if I could do a few more missions but it's all online based content. I honestly think the only way I'm buying the next generation of consoles is if they support full backwards compatibility. I have you many games that I need to finish. Time will tell though.
