Sony has some good titles Uncharted, MGS4, Killzone 2 but none of them are co-op most don't even have split-screen multiplayer. I am not saying slap on a lazy multiplayer instead of focusing on single-player but aside from Resistance 1 & 2 most of Sony's exclusives don't have it. The reverse can be said about MS with Halo 3, Gears of War, and even Fable 2.

Some people argue split-screen is the way of the past but I think we should have the option. I like playing online with friends (or random people) but I also like lan parties with groups of friends and it seems I can only play 360 because in order for that to work on PS3 each person would need their own PS3, game n tv.

Is there anyone else who wants to Sony to release more exclusive games wit co-op and/or split-screen multiplayer games?

P.S. - Glad motorstorm 2 changed in my favor.

To be honest, I really don't care all that much for co-op. Sure it's a nice feature, but just not essential IMO.

Res2 was amazing co-op, but it's not traditional co-op. I also think GG really missed a great opportunity in not having co-op in KZ2

If split-screen multi-player is your only requirement, there's always Haze...

R2 had co-op, and Uncharted 2 is next. Also, LBP has it.

Its more of a Developers Choice over Sony's... Guerrilla did not want Co-op or Split screen for Killzone 2 while Bungie wanted Co-op in Halo... Not Sony or Microsoft... They could ask them to put it in, but could not make them

Bots + no splitscreen = fail. im looking at you killzone 2:evil:

Im really missing some good local multiplayer, hope to see more coming in the future.

Does Uncharted 2 have it or is that all online too?

How KZ2 didn't have Co-op is pretty baffling considering you constantly have someone with you. It would have been perfect. Also I think LBP is the only game that allows another user to us their account in offline co-op, we need to see that feature used more often on the PS3.

Uncharted 2 has split -screen? (multiplayer looks SICK ... i want it regardless)

Haze ... I forgot that game ever came out ... is it even worth a rent :( ?

I know it's developers choice but they never seem to want multi on Sony's side (ex.- Epic had to update UT3 just to get split and it's half-#$$)

Where's my Twisted Metal at lol

Edit: LBP and WarHawk, gotta check these out

Like others have said. Little Big Planet, one of the most fun coop games I've played this gen. And Warhawk is awesome coop, especially since you can play 4 players online.

I don't really like co op that much. 95% of the time the other person is useless, or so much better than you that you don't get to do anything. And it also creates 2 often conflicting schedules. I can only play so much games in a week already I don't need to change my stuff around so it's convienient to play with somebody. Often Co op kills the immersion. Left 4 Dead is one of the only examples I can think of where the co op drastically improved the game, and I wish that were on PS3.:cry:

Split screen should never die! Some of my favourite gaming experiences ever were playing on the same console with a friend (perfect dark, pdz, halo1, 2, 3, gears1, 2, left4dead, etc)

L4D would be good on PS3, throw in some mods and I might switch my 360 copy for it

well, I don't mind coop if there's another single player mode which is just as good if not better, however, resident evil 5 pissed me off since it made it that much more difficult playing by yourself. I had a few partners lined up since I had a ps3 and most of my friends own 360s, then it ended up that all my plans fell through and I had to either play it online coop with randoms or by myself (I did almost all of it myself).

Coop in demon's souls on the other hand is such an awesome idea and an awesome way to execute coop gameplay.

Co-op and split-screen should be essential. Unless you're on a PC, but I can still do split-screen on Left 4 Dead.

In most games you aren't able to sign into two different PSN IDs on the same PS3, so both of you probably won't get Trophies playing at the same time, so splitscreen might not work too well. Splitscreen should always be there because sometimes its more fun playing with a friend on the same screen.

R2 does it too. Sony is treating co-op fine though. What they need to do is make multiple (X4) logins on one system freaking standard!
