Mind you, I'm not saying, and I hope Cody isn't as well, that you can't be immersed in a MP game. I'm just saying it is inherently harder to do so.

Also, to avoid further confusion:

1st premise: MP games are less complex than real sports

2nd premise: MP games are less meaninful than real sports

3rd premise: MP games are less immersive than SP

4th premise (which I forgot was there): being less immersive makes it less interesting

I think you pretty much get what I'm saying. I don't know if MP games are inherently less immersive (I'd say probably not), but only become so when you focus on the competition to the exclusion of the aesthetics.
