without online multiplayer play, it can't be as much fun

Actually, for me, it's likely to be more fun without online play. I meet enough jerks in real life to bother with them when I'm trying to have fun.

In addition, it seems that a lot of games these days are geared only for online play and the single-player mode is barely bothered with. Which means that they're games I don't want. If the console doesn't really have an online connection method, then games that are produced for it can't fall back on the assumption that "it'll be fun when you play it with other people".
