Oh damn cool Poncho ah.... ( Wearing my shades)..like a boss!

Off topic: You see DarkLord these shades are special my Sharingan can be activated while wearing these:)

DarkLordMalik3624d ago

You can't use your sharingan with these shades.

On-topic: Co-op is always welcome and it is nice to see split-screen one, especially how they aren't really included for most games.

Ummm .... ps4 only supports 4 controllers. This feature makes no sense, unles they were making it for xb1. (which is not happening)

Screw split screen! That's my screen dammit!

Xsilver3624d ago

8 player split screen damn!!!O_O gonna need a bigger TV.

Bigpappy3624d ago

Looks like it could be a fun game. But splitting the screen in 8 is not ideal (4 max).

Spotie3624d ago

You'll just find anything negative, won't you?

'' Sony’s invitation for us to participate in Playstation Plus helped Secret Ponchos because it will create a very healthy install base right off the bat and a strong Secret Ponchos community as the foundation we build off,” Yousuf said to GamingBolt.

So this will be on ps+ . :D

Lol, Sony said Secret Ponchos was going to be a ps4 Plus game at last year's E3.

Wonder if it'll be June's ps4 plus game...

Missed that agree on my iphone. +1agree

8 player split screen in 1080p and 60 fps seems crazy. If the different screens display 1080p and 60fps each that is amazing, serious horse power...

Ninjatogo3624d ago

It's only one 1080P screen, divided into 8. Still pretty crazy though.

zeuanimals3624d ago

The PS4 doesn't support 8 controllers though... Only 4. Does the mean you can play 4 player splitscreen online, so it's possible to play against people who are also playing in 4 player split screen. So it's 8 players, 2 consoles, and 4 players on each console. That seems like that's the best bet.

Also, splitting a screen 8 ways is overkill. Lol. The screens would be way too small and it would be pretty hectic. The only games that use 8 players on one console are sports games, and they're not splitscreen.

Remdih3624d ago

I thought that only 4 controllers at once were confirmed for the PS4? Something changed?

Nine_Thousaaandd3624d ago (Edited 3624d ago )

I'm wondering the samething...can the PS4 support up to 8 controllers now? Everything I found says, 4 controllers only...

On topic:
This game looks pretty awesome...I'm playing it reguardless...PS+ or not, I'm in! A spaghetti western fighting game, I love the creativity of Indie devs. Makes gaming really fun again!

zeuanimals3624d ago

That's what I was thinking too. I'm guessing they're saying you can play 4 players on one console and 4 players on another to make it 8 players online? But that's not 8 player split screen.

Oh well, I wouldn't want 8 player split screen since splitting a screen 4 ways is already small. Splitting it 8 ways would be crazy.

MasterCornholio3624d ago

Maybe you can split one controller between two people.

It's not like it hasn't been done before with other games.

amnalehu3624d ago

5 if you count remote play.

Sony Funded Secret Ponchos in Return for PS Plus Giveaway, Devs Happy With Sony's Indie Policies

Switchblade Monkeys' Secret Ponchos didn't have the success on PS4 that the developer had hoped for, even after giving it away as a freebie with PS Plus. The developers talk working with Sony, development of the PC version and the possibility of cross-play between the PS4 and PC versions of the spaghetti western.

I hope the cross play is true becouse i loved this game i even bought the dlc

himdeel3102d ago

I need to give this game another chance. It just didn't grab me after my first few games.

chrish19903102d ago

The lack of an in-depth tutorial and bot mode probably didn't help. I think they actually added both to PC release.

TFJWM3102d ago

Ya it is a little tough at the start to figure it out but once you do its really a solid little game

Tried back this game 3 weeks ago. Could not find any online matches. Waited for a good 15 minutes.
