Playing a single player game, IMO, is like going to the movie theaters alone. Doesn't matter how great a game is, there's no point in playing by yourself IMO. Just like movies, no matter how great the movie is, I'd never go alone.

Just like reading a book by yourself. I would never do it

Excellent sarcasm Kristoffer.
And good point also.

Some activities were meant to be done solo, such as taking a shower. Gaming just isn't one of those activities, IMO.

You are certainly entitled to your opinion, but I must disagree. Two in a shower can be quite entertaining, and computer gaming has it's roots in single player and I still prefer it over multiplayer.

I'll just note that while in general I tend towards MP much more than SP, COE is just an excellent SP game. While my several week long COE obsession was much shorter than my years of Dominions obsession, it was a very fun few weeks and the genre certainly has it's place.
