Cpt Picardo Posted December 7, 2012 Report Share Posted December 7, 2012 I have been irritated about this since Halo 3. Why is it that in all Halo games both 3, Reach and now Halo 4 that you get black bars on the sides of the screen while playing split screen? Like its not small enough with half the screen for some reason they make the sides black like its supposed to be played on a 90s 4:3 tv. If someone can give me a logical answer for this i will be very happy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saint Mudknot Posted December 7, 2012 Report Share Posted December 7, 2012 It keeps the dimentions of the screen without needing to cut off anything. It works the same way with some movies when they keep black bars on top and botton or the "theater" effect. my co op issues are due to Xbox and not 343. the damn message pop ups lol. i know i can turn em off but i wish they could of been moved to a small corner and shrunk to help 2nd player not get boxes infront of them 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cpt Picardo Posted December 7, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 7, 2012 Yes maybe its like you say but its only in halo games its like this when playing splitscreen. The message thing i understand is annoying! But i always keep them off. Don't need to know when xXsnipezXx calls me a *** for destroying his KD hehe.

SykoWolf Posted December 7, 2012 Report Share Posted December 7, 2012 The only real problem i have is the words cutting off parts of my screen when someone gets a kill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ioniablackbird Posted December 7, 2012 Report Share Posted December 7, 2012 I think i read in Halo 2 they didn't have the bars at first and split screen actually gave you a wider field of view, so it was better to play with a 2nd person as you could see more than anyone else Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
