Forums - Gaming - Any word on split-screen gaming next gen?

So I was trying to play BF3, KZ 2&3, and several other games online with my brother beside me.  I was disappointed to see that there was no way to have 2 people playing on the same console in an online match.  That kinda sucks.  I wanted to know if KZ:SF or BF4 or any next gen game had confirmed split-screen online MP.  I'm hoping PS4 games will have this included since they mentioned the Eye being used for split-screen.  Any word on this?

Minecraft for Xbox One will have it.



Split screen online multiplayer? I have never seen a game having such an option, never had one with such a option at least. Wouldn't it be very demanding from the hardware to render a multiplayer game, and compute two people controlled players?



So it is happening...PS4 preorder.

Greatness Awaits!

I'm surprised they have resources to spare for this feature.

Mario Kart Wii has it.

I thought it was the power of the cloud? Or is it cloud RAM?

Only Uncharted 3 has any sort of split screen, so you must be reffering that one. I thought it only had offline/local coop split screen. Will check this out later today, when I'll finish downloading Lotr War in the north.
