LOTN, you believe the CoD titles on Wii would have sold better if they had local multiplayer but no online multiplayer?

Come on, Jimmy. Just ignore him. It's obvious Call of Duty 4 was the first Call of Duty he has ever played.

I played Modern Warfare 2 on the 360 first. It was playing that which convinced me to get Reflex, since I could get that game combined with the control of the Conduit (which I found not bad, but not great).

But why are you all assuming that online is a better selling point for a Wii game than local multiplayer* ? If you are going by just the local multiplayer FPS that didn't sell so well, then you are ignoring that those games were also criticized for being mediocre all around.

Plus even not just taking the Wii into account, this online push for gaming in general seems to assume gamers like to play alone, and that the playing with friends audience is not that big. That is something I do not like on principle.

Yet just going by arguing won't matter as much as hard proof. If Goldeneye outsells this game, will that convince you that split screen would be a good idea for the next CoD Wii game?

* Which I only call split screen in this case, since it's just a rail shooter for the other three if the same screen.

That part in bold there has just put to rest everything you have said. You may not like the principle, but it is what it is. People who want local multiplayer are in the minority nowadays, publishers and developers have noticed this, and it explains why many modern online multiplayer games have no splitscreen multiplayer. One game for example was Killzone 2. Why did that game sell so well but had no splitscreen? It's simple, splitscreen is no longer a focal point for multiplayer games anymore, people buy games due to hype and a good marketing push nowadays. Not what's in the game. Get out of the past. Stop trying to make it seem as if we are saying Black Ops shouldn't have local multiplayer, nowhere has anyone said that, or even hinted at it. What this entire time we have been saying is that the Wii doesn't have good enough hardware to handle the splitscreen AND the Call of Duty engine at the same time. Give up your baseless argument and stop posting on this thread if you are going to be stupid. Goldeneye will NOT be outselling Black Ops, I repeat it will NOT outsell Black Ops. Keep in mind both games are coming from the SAME publisher within only a few days apart, Activision is going to be pushing Black Ops a LOT more than they are Goldeneye. This is my last post to you, so you might as well just not even respond to this.
