Dont try and argue with Lord. He knows everything and you are always wrong. According to him Conduit 2 will outsell BOwii.
Quantum of Solace Wii had Splitscreen and it sold ......oh .....oh yeah.

Being in the gaming media, I witness mean and rude people daily. All of those mean and rude people are mostly at Activision. Thanks for the heads up about Lord, Uno. Much appreciated.

I didn't claim Coinduit 2 would outsell this game. The game still has to be good first.
And I'm not going "I'm always right", nor am I against Activision. While I don't agree with things they did, I find they are one of the smarter companies this generation, especially with keeping budgets and development in line.
Plus I presented a valid question. Has there been a poll of customers to determine if splitscreen was a selling factor or not? Considering the money for these games, finding out it is, but neglecting it, will cost in the long run. If it isn't, okay, but it has to be properly determined or not. And this is statistics, which is important to business.

I completely understanding what you're saying, it's just you're wanting this on a console that can hardly handle it. Every game that has had splitscreen on the Wii was complete crap. Quantum of Solace, Red Steel, Medal of Honor: Vanguard, and many others. The Wii just can't handle splitscreen. If it has splitscreen, usually the game has almost no interesting features, the graphics are ugly, and the framerate sucks. Do you really want splitscreen that bad? I'd much rather trade a game with good performance than a game with splitscreen. If you can get both (A la Conduit 2/Goldeneye), then good for you. By the way, I edited my post that you quoted above.

Okay, that justification really is graphics whoring. Those games weren't bad because the Wii magically made them so. The games weren't that good on their own.
I bought lack of split screen from the assumption they just couldn't get it out of the engine, but if they are thinking the same thing you wrote, they really have lost sight of what makes the CoD games great.
It's similar to why Chinatown Wars didn't tear up the charts. Rockstar (even if it was Leeds, not North) forgot it was running around a city causing mayhem that made the series awesome. Ads with a bunch of comic book art, and almost no gameplay, would have make even San Andreas sell badly.

You're missing the point. Would you want a buggy almost unplayable game, or do you want a game without splitscreen that ran great and had all these cool features that the other consoles have ? Please tell me you choose the latter. Because the games with splitscreen run like crap. Red Steel cough, Quantum of Solace cough, Medal of Honor: Vanguard cough. You are wrong, face the fact like a man. You're seeing and provoking an argument that isn't even an argument, it's the 100% truth. Only idiots argue the 100% truth. I'm done with you, and please refrain from commenting on anything I post. I feel as if you make everyone's IQ drop a few levels.
