View Full Version : Regarding those stats on the back of the game...

I am apparently operating under some confusion regarding the statistics on the back of an X-Box 360 game (see image).

For a while now, I've been looking for a good shooter that myself and my three kids can play COOPERATIVELY, without each having to have a separate game system (e.g., system link) or a separate game system AND a separate X-Box Online account.

I thought I'd found it with Rainbow 6 Vegas. I liked the first game in the series, and this one said that it had 3-4 player co-op.

Well, actually, it read like this:

|players 1-2| |co-op 2-4| |system link 2-16|

|online multi-player 2-16| |co-op 2-10|

So, here I was, all exited. 2-4 player co-op! Problem is, it's not. It's 1-2 player co-op.

So what does the "co http://www.sharetrails.org/uploads/MP/360GameBack.jpg -op 2-4" part mean? It can't be system link, because system link is 2-16. It can't be online play, because that's listed below (in red) as 2-10.

So, um... What does this mean? What is the "co-op 2-4" about?

Call me confused. Does anyone have a guide for reading these things?

p.s. Anyone know a good 2-4 player co-op shooter?

split screen coop only supports 2 players I believe... For 4 player coop you need 4 360's...

I didn't think 10 player coop was possible anymore (it's not on the PC).
