“Portal 2 will probably be Valve’s last game with an isolated single-player experience... What this all means is something Newell is still trying to figure out.”

Daww, I like my SP games. Coop and MP can be fun too, but only when it makes sense. I can't Imagine enjoying HL3 in the same way if I have to play it with other people (being the unsocialite that I am).

I personally prefer MP over SP, SP games bore me after a while... but MP Half Life... please no.

The way I read it is that they're going to be including some sort of co-op or multiplayer element in all their future games. They're not going to stop making the single player portions, that would just be plain stupid.

Yeah I hope it would be like what CJ is saying. Big part of HL3 is the creepiness of venturing through alien infested areas on foot and alone. I think it's hard to make an atmospheric game while also having another person there with you chatting on the mic.

What would be OK is if there's one SP portion of the game that continues the main story and all, and a second Coop/MP mode that tells a spin-off story or something. Pretty much like what we have in Portal 2. I just don't wanna be forced to play MP to finish an SP story from earlier games.
