Because for the most part; they really don't. At least, that's always what I've seen. Local multiplayer, outside of fighting games, tends to work better on different machines anyway.

The code was still there in L4D, albeit disabled and needing a hack to reenable, so perhaps it might be the same this way? |
yes, it works better on different machines, but then you gotta choose between playing something with a friend and drinking beer with him.
and yeah, i enabled ss in l4d, after about 5 hours of hair pulling. it was worth it, since i played it in lan only once, on account of my friend having switched pcs with his girl and not being able to play it on hers, hehe

it wasn't that easy for non-360 controllers. or at least with my logitech it wasn't, since there were no cfgs for it in the steam thread about the hack and making one involved trying random combinations of numbers 'til you got each button mapped correctly

its much nicer having 4 computers in the house on a LAN than split screen.
I am not particularly fond of the split screen in Borderlands.
When you go to select skills or read you gear descriptions, you really have to scroll the screen around quite a bit to read all the stuff in split screen. Plus, it is hard to see the enemies some times in regards to where they are and what not.
Not saying it inst fun in split screen because it is. I dont see what it would have hurt had they included it for the PC.

Well appears that the PC version has broken the street date now, time to see if Gearbox is gonna honor their word and start activations early.

Zero immersion? The fuck? With higher resolutions anti aliasing becomes more and more useless. I don't use AA at all and I've only got 1680x1050. If jaggies are enough to semi-ruin the game for you then I feel sorry for you.

Bullshit, higher resolution means bigger display which means pixels are larger and aliasing doesn't go away.

both 22" monitors from same manufacturer, one with max resolution 1680x1050, other one with 1920x1080.
Consider yourself corrected, sir.
But I still see jaggies with 1920 and even higher resolutions, AA is mandatory for me.

This can also depend on the game you're playing. Some titles have more aliasing than others without AA. I can also feel that I need at the very least a 2x or 4x AA setting for most games, they're usually enough for me. But I agree with your last comment.

AA/Res only matters if one is on a monitor other than a crt, and to be honest most are these days..
My misses is still using a sony HDM460 or something like that and if you crank up the res for it, and its 19" then you can not worry about using AA in games etc...
Now its a different situation on my samsung 226 cause native res is what it run correctly at and doesnt alway like other resoultions forced on it.. Otherwise id prob forgo AA in most games as well.

No one knows. But if the street date has been broken, then there's a good chance it will be released early. BUT, there's no way to know for sure. Just do yourself a favor, tell yourself that it won't come out until release date and you'll be pleasantly surprised if it comes out earlier. :> Always more fun!
