At one point split-screen ruled the world of cooperative gaming, but with the rise of online games the format is dying off. Is that a bad thing or a good thing? 411's Jordan Williams takes a look in this week's Working Title rant.
Dead Rising 2: Off The Record felt like the zombie survival series' peak, with Frank West's non-canon adventure providing massive thrills.
The SSX series is one of the most iconic sports franchises in gaming history, but which one of the games is the best?
All of them are great put ssx 3 was my favorite. We definitely need another ssx asap

Dear nintendo,

Well I'm not...
Twisted metal 4 split screen is awesome
Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo oooooo split screennnnnnnnnn!!
Seriously though. Killing your friend who had come round to your house with split screen just cannot be re-created by online play.
I'm not trashing online but hey guys my internet is down wanna play some online? Oh wait no I can't cos you known the whole online thing rest on the basis that I need internet.
It's the same reason why you should make your single player campaign good because at the end of the day if something happens to the online aspect of the game (internet is down, internet is slow, servers are being moved, servers crashed etc) the the gamers still have some sort of you know, game to play
:)
It's a sad day when game "journalists" take the time to praise the decline of videogames.
I have real friends. At least 75% of my multiplayer gaming is done on the same TV. At least 95% of my multiplayer gaming is done in the same room (different TVs). Why would I praise the decline of split-screen?
Couch co-op will always be the best co-op. Much cheaper and your partner is in choking distance if he or she decides to hoard all of the ammo......
Split-Screen shouldn't even be on the decline!
It's not like we have no friends at all as the devs seem to believe! Local Co-op FTW!!!
