"Hah, fragged yo ass!"

..."No, that was a can of peas"...

That's really is quite a small screen for each player, isn't it?

Just need a big TV. ;>

So the game supports 8 players on one screen if there are two 360s attached? I suppose it's intended for projectors and really, really huge screens. Probably usefull if you have something like that, but I wouldn't use it on a TV less than a metre across. =/

Nope, not really, everyone felt comfortable with the screen. The TV is 56" across, minus the black bars though =/

@Parokki,

nope, the TV should feature picture in picture

 

Tried calculating the size of each screen, around 15" diagonal for each player.

No, each 360 was hooked up to a seperate TV input and the picture in picture was used to split the screen to show both sources



I am a Gauntlet Adventurer.

I strive to improve my living conditions by hoarding gold, food, and sometimes keys and potions. I love adventure, fighting, and particularly winning - especially when there's a prize at stake. I occasionally get lost inside buildings and can't find the exit. I need food badly. What Video Game Character Are You?

Massive TV! if each player gets 15" that's the same as 1player on my TV.

8 player split screen - awesome

8 split screens making a very tiny area in which to control your game - not so awesome.

lol, I almost can't ever stand split screen because I'd rather have my own full screen so I can see things rather than being forced to squint to see 1/4th of that size (1/8th in your case).

You guys are all whiners...I'm still used to split screen from the many days of gaming before LANing them was possible.

Bet with disolitude: Left4Dead will have a higher Metacritic rating than Project Origin, 3 months after the second game's release.  (hasn't been 3 months but it looks like I won :-p )
