Left and right.
Top and bottom is moron.
Horizontally. vertical split is fricking heresy. I need to see more of what is on either side not the fricking sky.
Top and bottom, you can set the camera so that you see less of the car but you can still see the track ahead enough, but you can't see enough of the corners with left and right unless you have a panning camera and that would be disorienting.
your horizontal field of view is larger than your vertical one
that's just science and btfo every other post itt
Top and bottom.
Left and right is moron (sic).
i miss playing splitscreen racers with my mom because i had no friends or siblings
That tech was called "Versus", I believe.
Well what the frick happened to it? Did it get copywritten and thrown in a vault like the nemesis system or what?
That looks cool as frick to me if it's real.
It probably just evaporated because it's too niche.
>need a 3D TV
>need special glasses
>need the game to run at 60fps in split screen to give each player 30fps
Most people don't have 3D TVs in the first place and most console games don't run at 60fps in single player let alone split screen. Not to mention how dead local multiplayer is in general. As cool of an idea as it is, it was just never going to happen realistically.
>30 fps game now runs at 15
so what? that just makes it retro kino and a throwback to the glorious psx days of yesterdecade
>3d tv
costs about as much as a new consumer grade laptop these days, the tech ain't new anymore
normies ruin gaming once again
wait what's the purpose of the yellow glasses if the image looks like it even without the glasses?
Without the glasses you see both views overlaid on top of each other. With the glasses one view is filtered out. If both players wear the glasses they only see their own view across the whole screen.
probably another reason why it didn't catch up. why bother putting it on a TV when only two people can see. might as well use VR glasses.
People sit next to each other. Not on each others shoulders.
I don't see why that matters.
Screens shod be side by side, because people sit next to each other. No one sits on your shoulders. How much clearer can i be? Wtf
If 4:3 then horizontal
If 16:9 then vertical because with horizontal you would have to squint despite having wider field of view and situational awareness
The true answer.
Imagine looking at this and thinking "yeah I need all those vertical space"
because maybe outside the USA, there are curves on the roads.
Two consoles, two tvs, and a link cable.
nice wasted space, vertical dipshits
You obviously don't understand how racing games work. If your car is in the center of the screen, I'd stop playing it.
You forgot that a car can turn right or left.
>he needs the sky to race
fricking shitter
Burnout 3 only splits the screen horizontally anyway, this was a cut feature.
horizontal obviously. you don't need to look up and down in racing games.
multi-monitor splitscreen is the best way, not that i'd waste anyone's time playing video g*mes at home
Camera only shows the player who is behind, that way the player who is ahead will have a hard time maintaining their lead
