    I’m not so sure about the latest versions, if they made local split screen better.

    Black Ops 3 has the Kino der Toten map split screen but it doesn’t run full width. I’m pretty sure the same map on Black Ops 1 did run full width.

    My favorite moments with these games were always playing locally, and having that keeps the game playable for as long as you own it and a working console.

    When you say “it doesn’t run full width”, what do you mean? I’m not following either 😅 do you mean the split screen is vertical (i.e. side-by-side) rather than horizontal (i.e. one on top of the other)?

      Here’s an example of the split screen not running at full width on Black Ops 3

      And here’s how it used to look on Black Ops 1: https://youtu.be/lnF2W-e7e8Q

          Oh, that’s strange! And you’re saying that this happens only on this map? The not-full-width thing, I mean?

            That’s weird. Maybe it’s a performance issue, they squeeze a few more FPS with narrower views.

              I can point to you several other games, many of them shooters, that are singleplayer. Like, you have the three modern DOOM games and ULTRAKILL just as an example. And like, you don’t NEED to have it be new games? You can just buy old singleplayer military FPSes?? Like, just looking at my library, I have Arma: Cold War Assault, Red Alert 2: Heroes of Stalingrad, every Bioshock game, Half-Life 1 and 2, Black Mesa, Medal of Honor (2010), Crysis 2, Spec Ops: The Line…

              Operation Harsh Doorstop is good for a military shooter, of which I’ve played in the past. It’s free to play too if I’m not mistaken (and the modding scene for it is quite fantastic as well).

                Modem warfare 3 was the last COD game I played and I thought it was mid.

                The original modern warfare was peak COD imo (MW2 was also very good)

                I played BOII, of which was arguably the best COD game of all time. I also considered playing MW Remastered for the Horizon Modern Warfare mod.

                  Its military propaganda. Tends to do well with military folk and is used for recruiting young people.

                    It’s so puzzling, you can have any world you want in a video game, absolutely fantastical places to explore and take your mind off things and be intuitive and solve puzzles, there is way too much violence in the world already, I really will never get it.

                        Anyone who buys call of duty these days deserve all the abuse they get.

                        In fact, that goes for most games.

                          They legitimately don’t know any better.

                          For them, it’s consumption for the sake of consumption.

                            Yeah, I’d say WaW/MW2/Black Ops were the last good CODs.

                              I was so mad when call of duty 3 wasn’t released for the PC. Modern warfare was sick though, last cod in my collection. I heard battlefield is ruined too, maybe someone else can tell me why.

                                The Gamerant link is dead, though I just need to use the Wayback Machine or something like that. I looked at the second link, and yeah, that’s concerning.

                                  I wonder what would be the mental capacity range if we sampled the group of people who buy FIFA, COD, and Forza every year.

                                  I wish they were releasing a Forza every years.

                                  They made motorsport 7 waited over 5 year, gave us Motorsport (2023). And it’s… Shit.

                                  The Formula 1 game are a much better analogy. They are always the same thing. Release every year. And somehow make stuff worse every other release

                                    I go to a barber every now and then and I don’t really like small talk a lot. Because he has a lot of customers, he just barely remembers me and always asks: you play video games too, right. And i always say yes, and he asks me what i play. I tell him something different every time. To him playing video games literally means playing the new fifa and the new call of duty, because that all he and his friends play
