It seems as though most games are going to an xbox live format. While this is all fine and dandy it seems as though many games are getting away from 4 player split screen and just going to 1/2 player formats. While this may sound like great news to some this is bad news to others like my self, who don't have broadband and get much enjoyment out of 4 player experiences. Any thoughts?

That's why system link was designed. I personally didn't
care for the 4 way split screen, made it too easy to figure
out where everyone was. As far as Xbox games going Live,
it's a very small percentage, out of the 80 or so games
available there is currently only about three games for
Live. By the end of the year we should have 100 to 200
Xbox games, but only 5 to 10 of those will be Live titles.
That's less than 5% of Xbox games going live, doesn't
seem like a problem to me.

Just my two cents...

I would think that if they're going Live, they still have the 4 player split screen option....

I hate splitscreen with a passion and no matter how big a screen I got it doesn't change that fact. :) But I'm sure you didn't care about that.

I'm not worried that alot of games are going to be on Live because alot of games aren't as well. If a game has any type of multiplayer capability then I think it should be available on Live.
