@Munkeh - You are barking at the wind. I agree with you 100%.
I can understand some people being upset about the lack of local split-screen, but it's not a feature I would ever use. I really dislike the staggered screen in World at War and it seems like more developers are implementing it.
I like the approach that Resistance 2 and now Uncharted are taking with a dedicated online coop campaign. The standard approach that some designers are taking is very frustrating. They tack on a useless partner that tags along with you throughout the game. Also, they seem to shoe-horn in some level design features to make it appear like this additional character is necessary. All of this would be great if you are playing with another person, but when it is AI controlled, it sucks. I am glad that ND spent the time and resources to develop a dedicated coop, rather than trying to implement a bad splitscreen sheme like COD5.
Thanks for the input, Jeff.
