chocoloco said: Well it is not perfect, but I have had up to eight TVs an only two consoles in a room playing Halo 2 not too long ago. I have not tried it on Halo 3 or Reach, but it would be surprising if it was not there. You are right of course that most games lack split screen, but that is a far cry from saying that shooters are no longer social when the reality is the are more social due to more options in how to play. |
That's not more options, that's different options, and it's certainly not more social. Playing online with a headset does not make you social. The internet is not a substitute for real human interaction. Hell, we do a large amount of communication non-verbally as humans, with body language and facial expressions. You cannot substitute that with online play. I won't even CONSIDER buying a racing game without split screen, because that's literally the only way I'll play it at all.
