    Default Who Really Wants Splitscreen MP?!

    well we all know that so far GoW will have 1-2 players splitscreen, that will only be for ss co-op, not multiplayer, nothing is for sure just yet and me and macheteman are really hopeing for 1-4 player splitscreen! is there anyone else out there who really wants this too? i think it brings a whole new level of fun to a game! i had some of the best times playing ss with my friends, i think GoW could and should have 4 player ss!

    Guess who the 1st to post is? I would love this feature. It could be one of the best parts of the game if it is put in.

    See EPIC? You can't have fun times like these without ss. I mean you can yell all you want on live, but actually being able to chase someone out of your room? Priceless.

    I agree it would be a big part of the game,but the only problem I could think of would be trying to take cover with those small screens.

    1-4 player?? How would that work. The guy you are playing would take up all of the space of your screen.

    I do wan't 2 player splitscreen when playing on Live though.

    yeah of course its better just playing one player, screen wise, but even though the screens get smaller during ss, its still insanely fun, i hope that they allow guests on live and that u can do ss online MP.

    i think it will work, it depends on ur tv, but it wont be too bad, of course one big screen is always better, but i will sacrifice my large screen into 4 smaller ones for my buddies and play, i think it will work fine

    But I can't really see it working - although it would be fun as hell if it did - The characters and the enviroments doesn't get smaller, only your screen... And the COGs are pretty damn big.

    i think it will work fine, it will be a lil harder to see stuff but then u can always screen-check , no matter who small and hard to see it gets it would still be really fun to play 1-4 player ss

    I'll be very disappointed if there's no split-screen. SSMP is one of my biggest factors in deciding how much I like a game.

    I'm sure the Epic guys can figure something out, as I wouldn't want to be stuck with just Halo 3 for my 360 split-screen deatmatch jones.

    i dont want ss because that would never work when you would take cover how will you see your enemy or how will you see the next cover point on a ss. i think 2 player will work but iam glad for no 4 player ss.kind of like graw you would have to go into 1st person or else your guy will take up the whole screen

    well ur character will also get smaller as will ur screen, when ur screen splits it doesnt cut too much out, it just shrinks the large screen into 4 smaller screens, so u can see everything just smaller, even if GoW had it, that doesnt mean u would have to use it, thats stupid to not wont something that doesnt have to effect u, u control it, just b/c GoW will(hopefully) support 1-4 player ss doesnt mean that YOU have to play 4 player ss.....

    I would love to have as well because a lot of my friends don't have a 360 and only needing 2 360's and GoW discs would be a godsend. But I'm getting XBL so I don't care, lol.

    seriously we do that all the time, sometimes my friend will run out of the room and come back and attack me and go crazy, ss is just really fun

    this thread is all about the ppl who really like to play ss with there friends and it seems like alot of ppl do, so hopefully GoW will have 1-4 players ss

    It needs to have it for system link AND Live just like Halo 2, Perfect Dark Zero, and GR:AW. At the least it should support 2 players per console(4 preferrably) when networked. LAN parties are so much easier to coordinate when games do multiple players on EACH console.

    You and me both, chief. It's the first thing I look for in a MP game. Sadly, I don't find it too often.

    Yeah, I agree. For LAN purposes, the splitscreen is typically necessary.
