10 Video Games That Should Have Ditched Their Multiplayer Modes

10. Bioshock 2

Similar to Far Cry 3, Bioshock 2 was released during a time when every First-Person Shooter had a multiplayer mode, so it should come as little surprise then that the second entry in the beloved Bioshock series also featured a competitive multiplayer mode.

A series best known for its twisting narrative and atmospheric worlds, it should be no surprise that the multiplayer mode was met with either a sceptical curiosity or flat-out indifference when it was first announced.

The series was also not exactly known for having tight gameplay mechanics and smooth gunplay making a multiplayer mode an odd choice considering Call Of Duty and Halo had recently redefined the expectations for Multiplayer shooters.

Despite this the mode turned out surprisingly well even featuring some nice story elements in the mode that would appeal to series fans, however it ultimately never took off as it wasn’t what fans wanted from a Bioshock game and it also unfortunately suffered from a number of bugs that hindered the experience.

The mode was even scrapped when the game was remastered for the Bioshock Remastered Collection in 2016.
