I will never forgive the gaming executives for killing couch co-op. We have never had better TV's and monitors in history and it's shame I can't share the space with the homies. Inviting people over for a game session ought to be a normal way for grown-ups to kick it in the modern age, but no. We all gotta hop on Discord and pretend to be together rather than just actually being together.

Right, exactly, we played split screen on the smallest tvs. Text was often reduced to tiny blobs. We still had fun.

Now food prices are unreal but a huge high def tv costs 300 dollars and where are my fun co-op games? All online

Exactly dude! It has never made more sense to have split-screen/same screen co-op games. Shooters, beat 'em ups, Platformers, party games whatever (also lots of great accessibility features for those who need them), we finally have enough screen space to do really co-op properly and we all gotta just get in VOIP. Ugh, this future sucks man.
