It is more enjoyable to kill people than AI.
More of a challenge and you get to rub it in to people, can't do that with
AI, they don't have a sense of humour!
I wasn't included in stats, I prefer online, offline takes a few hours to
finish a game, then what, do the same thing over and over, the only game I
have done that with is Halo, and KOTOR.
Everything else gets boring fast if just AI, and alot of Live games, change,
the maps change so you get a hole new experience.
Star Wars Clone Wars....totally different gameplay all together from offline
play...maps and bases change.
