Forums - Microsoft Discussion - Prediction: Halo 6 split screen mode to be exclusive to scorpio

You heard it here first folks! 

 

So there was a rather big backlash towards 343 and MS after the announcement that Halo 5 had no split screen mode. So I believe MS will bring back split screen, but only for those who buy a Scorpio. it wouldn't be the first (or the last) time MS has held back content from their costumer's with older platforms. And having split screen for halo 6 only on Scorpio would be a way to try and "force" the hardcore halo fans to upgrade to their new platform. They will obviously say the reason is because "the power of Scorpio allows us to do things we can't on Xbox one" but yeah, that would be a load of bull!

 

Ms said there won't be any exclusive games for Scorpio. But they never said there wouldn't be exclusive content and features.

I don't know, the backlash would probably be pretty big if they did that.

Scorpio will have 4k rez and 4k texture (according to fallout developer) so there is going to be features and advantages already.



Will Halo 6 exist?

This seems unlikely to me, especially because of the play anywhere stuff. There would be no way to say that PCs cant handle it if Scorpio can, and MS has more-or-less promised that XB1s and PCs will get the same MS games. So, I can't see how they'd manage not to seriously piss of the OG XB1 owners (who will likely still be the larger portion of the install base).

With that said, I hope Halo 6 does bring back split screen.

My most cherished gaming memory is of me and my little bro doing a two day Halo: CE split screen co-opmarathon over Thanksgiving weekend 2001. I also had a lot of fun playing other Halos with friends and family. I really missed that with 5.



Awesome, if they did that than ill have a reason to buy a Scorpio. Halo 6 will be awesome in 4k too



Cue angry fans.



The Democratic Nintendo fan....is that a paradox? I'm fond of one of the more conservative companies in the industry, but I vote Liberally and view myself that way 90% of the time?

Why would it not?



Terrible idea.
