my wife and i play split screend.  i do ok.  usually around a 1.0 and she does not that good but she is BRAND NEW to the game.  we were all there once, weren't we?  I am just happy she plays and doesn't pitch a fit when i do .  I do find it much harder to play on split screen, though.  Every once in a while, i can pull a 24-9 or something i consider great, but it isn't often.  I will tell you why.  the same volume comes out the speakers for both players so i can't hear footsteps or pinpoint where gunfire is coming from.  need to invest in two turtle beaches.  I do much better when it's just me, but it's a small price to pay to not have to hear nagging .

i understand your frustration, though.

error your talking about boosters mostly,

but when my friends come over sometimes they do beter than me because im screwing around, but i know my best friends can all get positive(i taught them well )

     My bro and I usually get around 25-30 kills and single digit deaths the majority of the time. Hes a MW2 veteran though, so its not like hes playing for his first time. The freaky part is we almost always have identical scores. I remember one night we got the same kills and deaths 4 games ina row. Tripped me out!

The idea of split screening is great. I think that it's important to have the feature, but it drives me insane when they end up on my team. I already know it's going to be an uphill battle since 9 out of 10 times it means we are at an automatic disadvantage. Split screeners are your team is an automatic handicap.
