I understand the sentement though, while its frustrating to read these threads each time, i specifically joined becuase i just picked up the game and found out it doesnt have local co-op. Am getting a refund tomorrow. While it has to be frustrating for yourself each time you read these threads, for each of us, we have just found out something really upsetting, and venting those feelings. Ive played every single game of halo split screen with my brother since the first. We had the game booted up, and i was trying to work out how to get split screen working and googled it to see if anyone else was having this issue. It was really deperessing to see this.
And i did very minimal research on this game because i tend to not research games that often as I find it ruins the excitement for me. I didnt even cross my mind that they would take out local co-op, as it was always such a huge thing for the halo games. I couldnt imagne the game without them.
Anyway, I am totally feeling what the OP is feeling right now, and i apologise that you have to read these posts over and over again, but for us its a way of venting something that has upset me quite a bit.
