I'm replaying TLOU 2 on PS5 Pro. Not quite as beautiful looking as Burning shores, yet the character expressions are unmatched. Fun to play again.

I played the Subside Demo, underwater exploration for PSVR2. Looks great, will buy when it comes out.

Some GT7, puzzling Places and Metro Awakening as well.

For co-op we picked up Sackboy adventure again, and put it back down again :/ I don't know what it is with the levels, they never feel satisfying. The comedy of hitting each other / picking up each other instead of what you want to pick up wears off fast. The movement of sackboy still kinda sucks and with the shared screen approach one of us (with 3 players) often ends up at the edge or even out of view.

Split-screen action games, do they still exist???

I'm not sure tbh, I think double dragons released a new game a while back but if you're looking for a good one Alienation is a top down twin stick shooter with split screen. Mostly 2d games come to mind though, perhaps Streets of Rage 4... I think I seen local vo-op on that. 

BTW, great choice. TLOU2 is an excellent game. 

Already played both of those. Streets of Rage was fun!
(Both are not split-screen btw :p)

I saw Dungeon Siege 3 has split-screen maybe (can't confirm anywhere, just saw one screenshot with split-screen)
I guess not, looking a bit further people complain it's 'tethered' even in online co-op

Is no company going to cater to split-screen anymore?

Yes Tlou2 is great to play again. It did hang on PS5 Pro on the 'shuttle launch' sequence. The screen froze on Ellie sitting in the capsule while the sound kept playing. After the whole sequence was done I had to force shutdown the PS5. I skipped it the second time. No other glitches, but this one was annoying, one of the coolest sequences. (At least the soundtrack brought all the memories back anyway)

Does it look any better on the Pro? I can't tell. But I can tell it looks great and now runs at 60fps as it did at 30fps before.

Background does look more sharp now I look at it closely. Yet playing on TV it looks the same to me as 3 years ago, just running at double speed now :)
