Dig around in the files and see if there's anything I can rip > campaign > seriously suck > don't play for a month > try again and somehow get really good in an instant > beat game in 3 hours > never play it again

Buy Game

Beat Campaign on hardest difficulty if it lets me set it

Max out everything on Multiplayer if there is multiplayer

Cheat on beaten game for poo poo and chuckles

multiplayer first ALWAYS
eventually I'll head towards completing any campaign (if there is one) or blah

I can't think of any games I play for both singleplayer and multiplayer.

Beat Campaign on hardest difficulty if it lets me set it
Yeah! None of this "medium difficulty for story" crap.

I'll do half the campaign first, then multiplayer, then once I got bored of that, I play the rest of the campaign, then move back onto multiplayer.

Single player until I get bored. Then the multiplayer.

Depends on the game, but I try to do atleast half of the campaign before hopping over to MP. I'm not much an achievement hunter, unless they're "fun" and not "kill 1000 enemies with headshots"

Playing games the Blooker way

1. Dabble in the campaign for half an hour
2. Do the same in multiplayer for about an hour
3. Get booted off said entertainment medium by mother

i dive into the multiplayer first usually if its a not so campaign heavy game like cod or gears of war and then casually alternate between them till i finish the campaign

if its something more heavily campaign based like far cry 3 i go for it first

  • Single-player = yes, multi-player = no
  • I frequently go for 100%; I enjoy the challenge
  • My main console is an Xbox 360, my Gamer Tag being "Endify" - I am never online
  • Favorite game: Blockland
  • First Pokémon: Torchic
  • Favorite Pokémon: Lucario

Single Player first, if it's a game I'm not familar with. I try to 100% my favorite games. (Red Dead Redemption Single-Player was a bitch to 100%, btw)

EDIT: I use cheats on old games or when I'm bored.

Burnout Paradise
I have the worst luck in this game. Not even attempting to get the Burnout License.

HOW TO PLAY GAMES MY WAY:
1. Buy game
2. Complete the main story, get 100% (or as close to 100% as I can get).
3a. Move on to multiplayer.
3b. Use cheats for fun.
3c. Create my own challenges (ex. Take no damage from this boss, clear a level in under X Minutes and Y Seconds). This may or may not involve using step 3b.

I usually take a long time to beat certain games, like Halo 4, bought it on release, occasionally get on to play a few minutes of campaign on Legendary, im about 3/4 done so far, or Forza Horizon, I play that game a bunch, but I roam around a ton so Im like 2/3 done.
