What 2 player (same console) games are there?

Hello ladies and jellybabies,

I've decided that seeing as my flat is nearing completion, it may be time to lift the antisocial ban on my living room and invite some Oomans to my place.

With that in mind each guest will be required to compliment my DIY skills and new washing machine and flat pack couch, as well as indulge in some serious 360 2 player sessions.

Now normally I stick to single player games due to enjoying the experience, but even I wouldn't force people to sit and watch me playing Oblivion whilst dressed in my smalls, bumblebee slippers and safari hat... although I would consider it an honour for
them. So please could you fine chaps recommend some awesome 2 player same-screen games for all to enjoy.

I know the obvious one such as FIFA and Forza, but does CoD4 have 2 player mode or is it just multiplayer? Nothing too indepth like an RPG or strategy game.

:)

 

Question about shared gold account on two xbox ones

Set console 1 as HOME console.....anyone can play on this console (wife and Kids) without you being signed in (gold Account)

Console 2... If you are signed in (Gold account) on this xbox your wife and kids can also play sharing your Gold features and games.

This is what I do when my two boys want to play each other on separate xbox's and the same game...

Console 1 (home Xbox) kid #1 signs in

Console 2 , I sign in (GOLD account), kid #2 signs in

they play together

 

Adding 2nd console question??

Hello,

Im aware that we will need 2 separate game disks to both play at the same time on different consoles...But....1.) What happens to your progress and how do you maintain progress when you decide to play on the same console occassionally.

2.) Do the map packs purchased under the Primary (Family Gold) which are available to all on the account, are they available on both consoles? Can the Map Packs be downloaded to the 2nd console and be used on both??



Thanks in advance for your hel[p with this

 

that's actually kinda tough...there are plenty of multiplayer co-op games, but couch single player co-op is a bit of a dying breed unfortunately (as well as an oxymoron). left 4 dead, any halo, army of two, fable, and any lego are definites. i think gears
of war, crackdown, saints row, and far cry 4 might have split screen single player as well...

 

Yeah I know what you mean, Bootstrap... and thanks for the suggestions.

Its one of those things where its not that the demand isn't there, its that there is no money in it for the publishers/devs. Nowadays its about families owning 2-3 consoles and 2-3 copies of the same game to play each other on though internet connections.

I think Left4Dead might be a good choice as its pickup & play. Fable is too in-depth to play co-op for a guest just popping around.

It annoyed me when Forza got rid of the local scoreboards as that was an excellent feature to have for a racing game. Again though it was all about multiplayer leaderboards in the end.
