It is an underated feature that many people find important. We already no that there isn't any co-op but splitscreen and system link functionality would be great even if we were limited to not having more than 1-2 people per box on system link. Even a graphical tone-down on the multiplayer for just a split-screen mode would be great. I haven't seen any news about the offline modes and I would like to know. It is great to have offline multiplayer in games and it's what keeps people playing games long after they are done the campaign. yes or no answer would be fine if anyone knows

I'd put my money on system link not so much on split-screen.


 


But since the game runs off the same engine as Terminator (Also made by Grin) Which includes coop there is a glimmer of hope for us.


 


But i'm still sad there was no splitscreen in RE5 versus

hmm makes sense. Still hoping for some sort of split-screen. From the looks of it the game doesn't seem to push the console too hard in the multiplayer matches, but the huge scale of the maps might be stopping them... I hope they still implemented it :(.

Bionic Commando multiplayer will be playable via system link. It's how the multiplayer games were set up at Captivate.

System link is good but in most homes, "splitscreen" helps determine if a game should be purchased over a rivals game.


Almost everyone has a brother,sister,cousin or friend in the SAME house that would like to play together without purchasing a 2nd 360/ps3

The wait is almost over...
"Worlds Collide" chapter 3 is on its way so be prepared to

True there will be some people who won't be able to play multiplayer because of that fact but system link is still a viable option. You will just have to rent 2 copies and play with another friend who has a 360. I'm glad there will at least be a system-link feature at least in the game. Thank you Carbon for the confirmation. I didn't get a chance to try bionic commando at the captivate. I'm planning on leaving my 360 at my friend's house after I get it repaired. Whenever I play my games I always play at his house. His cousin who is also a close friend of ours lives 2 houses away from him so he leaves his 360 their as well. This way we will at least be able to have a 1 on 1 on 1 match whenever we want.
