"otally know what you mean. I still play games online with random people, but it's almost always with the volume turned down so I can't hear them. And while I used to play online with my friends a lot back when Xbox Live was in its infancy, we all prefer playing Modern Warfare 2 split-screen in the same room instead of online, and we do it every week. New Super Mario Bros. Wii has also been a wonderful local multiplayer game that I see no need for it to be online.
One of the major bummers for me is that Left 4 Dead 2 is only 2-player split-screen, and getting the equipment and setting up a system link game is such a hassle.
But I also understand that some people are in a position that friends are either busy or live hundreds of miles away and the only way they can play together is online. Yes, lag still exists, and it sucks, but the issue is significantly better than it used"

"gon Age has been an addiction for me recently, so I understand your dilemma. I had the same problem with Fallout 3, but eventually decided I could listen to my podcasts and just pause it when someone started speaking in the game and I could deal with that. It can't be helped, I want my Dragon Age but if a new Giant Bombcast is out, it must be listened to!
The only games I won't listen to podcasts while playing are anything like Left 4 Dead where I need to constantly be able to hear my online teammates. This influences how I play Modern Warfare 2, since I mostly plau free-for-all to make sure I don't have to talk to any"

"ove the open world idea. My dream Zelda game would allow you to tackle the dungeons in any order you choose, and how you got through each dungeon would be different based on what dungeons you have and haven't done previously, and therefore what items you did and didn't"
