(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); As the "PSN outage" extends and tensions run high, there has been a high increase in threads that generally say the same thing. They all seem to point to one factor, that a lot of people only play games for the multiplayer.

Now, I'm alot older than some users ( I'm 27 ) and when I was a kid, if you wanted to play games with your friends you would have to go to their house, not just party up. So for me, playing offline is no problem.

Playing Offline

Although most of the popular games seem to be designed as a multiplayer game, they still contain a story mode and many games have multiple offline modes.

I recently bought the new Mortal Kombat, there's so much to do that I probably won't play it online until I finished all the other things I've started. I also have been playing the Crysis 2 and Black Ops campaigns, because if PSN was up I'd just be playing the multiplayer.

These can help take the hours of boredom away. Already completed it? well put it on the hardest setting and go back in.

You could probably find a guide right here on NGU!

Trophies

All games have these, use this time to go back and get ones that you forgot about or couldn't be bothered with. If your bored and your ps3 is your only source of entertainment, then trophy hunting can be a good sport.

When I first ever got a ps3, I didn't even have internet, trophy hunting was all I could do.

I know trophies may not be everyone's interest, but it does look cool to have a few platinums in your collection.

(Online trophies usually make up a small percentage of the total amount.)

Again, you can probably find help with trophies here on NGU.

Your ps3 can also;

Play stored music
Play CDs
Play Blue Rays and DVDs
Browse on the internet

So there are plenty of things that you can still do with your ps3, and even more things are available away from your ps3.

Live your life?

Enjoy the weather
Go play some sports
Go to the gym
Go to the cinema
Get a haircut
Do anything !!!

Life has so much to offer you, but you just won't take it.

im not going to be mean. but get outside and meet new friends

Ok people nice story.
But I think for 80% it's important YES!

Because I bought my ps3 to play online with friends.
And I thing along with me there are millions of people who did that.

Gebapt,

i like both since ps3 isn't workin im trophy whoring

I don't enjoy single player.. even when playing it is nice to be able to message your friends. So, yes sir.

That's true, I like to message friends too. I still have real life friends though.

No, but I just got my PS3 after months so I would like to play online.

IRL friends are only relevant to this if you play PS3 offline with them.. I don't

9) You can get trophys ? Trophys are for little homo kids, Only way you can troll me online is by saying: i got more trophys then you noob ! But answer: well i dont care cuz they are useless and doesn't make you any better online, that why i rape you every single time u were in my screen and you ended 0-4 in SnD COD's
10) Who give a flying shit about Trophys ! If you want a real one, how about you do some sport's or MLG's
11) Single Player is FREAKING BORING!
12) Single playing is boring!

If you like single player ... well you probably love to masturbate other then doing girl!
