7 Best PS3 Split Screen Games

Demetrius Crasto:"We’ve got nothing more than some of the best PS3 split screen games available, where you and your friends can work together side by side in-game and on a single console. Playing on the same TV screen is one of the best ways to host a party, a sleepover or even spend quality time with someone, especially if your friends are gamers. Well, playing on a single display does have its drawbacks, most notably the lack of visual area. But that completely depends on the screen size and how far off you’re going to be seated."

Borderlands 2 is a great co-op game, just not locally. For a game that sends you into the menu as often as it does, its simply annoying to trying to navigate said menus when you cannot see the whole thing.

Also, Uncharted 3? You only get about 1/4 of the screen when you play it locally, and it's just some generic gun fights really. I love UC3 don't get me wrong, but I don't think the co-op is anything special locally.

Just my two scents. I'm playing Tales of Xillia now and I know it has local co-op (up to four, actually) but I haven't had a chance to try it out.

rags on U3 for "generic gunfights", praises Borderlands 2 :/

McScroggz4312d ago

I was specifically referring to the co-op, where there isn't much platforming and traversal mixed in with the gunfights. Nor are there interesting cut-scenes or puzzles. So yeah, the co-op experience for UC3 is generic. The rest of the game is awesome.

Borderlands 2 isn't generic either. Medal of Honor is genneric. Call of Duty is generic.

That game is a fucking blast to play in splitscreen. Finished it multiple times, with the same friend no less.

Superhuman?

Capturing manchester is the best part.

@kreate

I can't remember anymore. I know that we unlocked those dual wielding pistols, so I guess we got through it on superhuman. It's been a while since I've played it.

halo & gears definitely lol

beezlebozz4311d ago

You seem to be confused, this is an article on the best ps3 split screen games.

Halo and gears are xbox exclusives and therefore can not be played on a playstation 3.

Therefore, they do not qualify on the best PS3 splitscreen games.

Hope i cleared that up for you :)

MrChow6664311d ago

lol I know, that was me messing around

Ok, this will sound weird. RE5 and 6, as much as those games can suck, are actually great fun in split screen.

I subscribed to this not knowing about how some of the proceeds go to St. Judes.

Really cool that some of the money goes there.

Even if people don't subscribe to the mag, it might bring people to the charity.

One of the main charities my wife and I donate to. They help a lot of children and being a parent of 5 children I can’t imagine what those parents go through. I’ll probably get a sub to GI because of St Jude and of course because I love video games.
