Can you play this split-screen or is the co-op just online?

Damn I’m sorry about the forum issue. ☹ These things went in CS back in the day. Might as well close this thread due to the other one being opened.

The rest of us are over [here](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=495481), in the thread in the Game Room. You probably wanted to put this here.

You’ll be happy to know, though, that we all pretty much agree with you and have already seen some hefty all-SDMB gun-on-zombie action 🙂 Joining the Steam usergroup for the PC or the XBOX live tag group will let you play with the rest of us - matches are conducted all the time! 🙂

ETA: Oops, let the tab stand open for a bit too long, sorry about the redundant post.

I’m not sure why people apologize for starting threads in the wrong place.

This is going to look weird, but I’ll move **erislover** ’s OP into the existing thread and then lock this thread.
