its really Halo that popularized the online console gaming, even in reality only small demographics do really care about it. The sales of 360 and PS3 are a proof of it. In console FPS my most favorite so far was Timesplitters future perfect, co-op mode, 4 player multiplayer splitscreen and long singleplayer dont care about online. Black even without multiplayer I like this more than COD 4 singleplayer campaign, then QoS Wii version... |
Even Halo has split-screen multiplayer, though, so why are developers so eager to abandon it? My guess is that the blame falls squarely on this need to make things as pretty as possible, which leaves little power left for split-screen or bots. Given the option to make the game look better, or to have more longevity, most developers opt for the former. It's to our long-term loss, but since it probably leads to more sales (at least in the short run) I suppose I can't really blame them.
And yet I do.
