The only game I can find that has decent 4-player split screen is Halo 3. COD4's is ok, but the lack of weapon choices really limits it. Gears of War has 2-Player split screen, which I can understand because it's a game about two dudes, but that defiantly limits it. And then there's Left 4 Dead. A game about 4 fucking people trying to survive a zombie apocalypse, but I can't play with more than one of my friends on the same xBox. WTF is up with that. I really can't be that hard to do, even if it was just for verses or survival mode. I bought the game assuming that it would have 4-player split screen, and when it didn't I almost threw the fucking game out the window. For the recod I'm glad I didn't because the game is awesome but switching off every death gets really annoying. AND THEN BUNGIE, who I thought knew the value of being able to play games with friends in the same room, decided to only have 2-player split screen in Firefight! Note to bungie, you have fans with more than one friend IRL. Not all of your fan base are uber nerds who live in their parents basement. Most of us are intelligent people with real fucking lives. So now my choices are play Halo 3 for the rest of my life or buy rock band and pay shit loads of money for a giant plastic drum set I don't want. I'm getting to the point when I would pay EXTRA money for a version of ODST or L4D2 that had 4-Player split screen. It's worth at least 40 bucks to me. So if Bungie wants to make a $100 4-player split screen version of ODST, I'll be first in the fucking line.
