I’m not even going to comment here, because there is nothing for me to say.

Maybe for you, but a lot of people have roommates or friends who live close enough to play in person (which is definitively the better experience, even with a smaller screen). If I were still in college, I’d hate this news. As it is, I play Mario Kart with coworkers on my lunch break at work — I’d be devestated if…

Terrible decision. I want to play with a person who lives with me? Better get another XBone, and hook them up on a decent TV. Uh-oh, I only have one HD TV in my house. Guess I’m not playing it with family or friends AT ALL.

Though it’s not outdated amongst people who have irl friends.

My girlfriend and I have been sitting on the couch playing through each of the Halo campaigns together, partially in anticipation of Halo 5. This killed one of my major fun factors for the game.

Splitscreen is still entirely necessary for people who like to play with their friends in the same room. I’d hardly called having local friends “outdated”.

Na... there is something magical about sitting next to your sibling/friend and head shot him right in the face. Local multiplayer isn’t going to disappear. The fact that sports game are so popular still is an evidence of that.

This is a major bummer. Splitscreen is the reason I buy things on consoles instead of on computer, and honestly I would buy the PC version in a heartbeat if splitscreen was included. It’s even more of a bummer that a game with a long history of splitscreen no longer has it (and yet even more of a bummer to hear people…

No, Halo fans do not “win” the lack of any real local MP is a terrible and ridiculous blow. How can I justify paying $60 for a MP heavy game if I cant play with my friends?!

Aside from the fact that he’s a career criminal... Han shot first.

They’ve explicitly said it’s not.

you sound nice!

So they turned an ordinarily boring and hard to pay attention to in-flight warnings and educational video into something that people will action pay attention to.

Quit your bitching, they did a good job.

All I could think of while reading these texts:

Waiting for some obnoxious dude with a 10TB HDD to come in and be like “lol optical discs”

Btw, the book he’s referring to in that quote is Black Widow: The Name of The Rose by Marjorie Liu (and Daniel Acuña), a phenomenal writer and an amazing book, which features flashbacks of Natasha PREGNANT and alludes to a lost child.

Also, are we really picking apart the fact that the calm-Hulk-down move is called a “lullaby”? Hulk is like a giant, raging child. It makes total sense. The fact that Natasha is the key just speaks to their relationship.

She can’t just be the coolest aunt, or have made the valid choice that, as an assassin and spy, maybe kids are not in the cards for her. Or even the more radical choice that she just doesn’t want them. No, she can’t ever have babies, so her life is ruined. She is an incomplete woman.

People keep bringing this up. I think the reveal of her sterilization had more to do with her relationship with Banner than it being the crowning moment in her backstory. And as others have repeated, the tragedy of her sterilization isn’t that she can’t have kids, it’s that she had that choice taken away.
