Daniel Starkey wrote this article to better define games' place on that axis, and to describe his thoughts on judging quality and seriousness within the medium: http://tehpwngaming.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=143%3Astarkey-pompus&catid=47%3Alast-added-tutorilas&Itemid=56", "group_id": 857, "id": 1175209}, {"user_id": 4027, "stars": [], "topic_id": 36703, "date_created": 1306360423.7621641, "message": "I enjoyed the article quite a bit, it is hard to formulate a good post reaction right now though.

Honestly, bland single-player has kept me away from any real single-player gaming at all for quite a while.  Good multi-player games with strategical depth and an interesting meta game are what I've mainly been playing.  Multi-player goes beyond simple \"fun\", but it takes a more competitive personality, which definitely isn't everyone's bag.", "group_id": 857, "id": 1274861}]
