The point is, I don't play to win. I don't care whether I win or not. The game is supposed to be enjoyable and since it is with friends you don't expect them to cheat and lie about it. It makes you think, wow I'm friends with these people when they can't tell the truth about something so damn simple?
[/quote]yeah, you winning every round must be real enjoyable for them. you want fairness? then why dont you all just use the default classes?

YoshiFlipThis is also why I like the DS' wireless communications... Especially with Mario Slam Basketball (my nephew always looks at my screen, so I go stand in a corner of the room).
I could use some of them cheat codes and make it look like you suck that way.
Unless it's my brother using a real ds game I dislike vs'ing others now.

I'm all about fair play.i.e. like in science experiments you take precautions to make sure all the experiments have the same environment / working conditions, a fair test.
Dude, seriously, you're getting pissed off and screaming over a 4 player video game. It's not that big of a deal. You act like they beat up your family.

Hello-rants thread?
People need to blow off some stream every now and then, he's only human.
Replying to #25
Yeah, but he's acting like them looking from their 1o inches of screen to his is a death sentence.
You don't want them to look on your screen? play a fighting game
Replying to #26
It's a pretty rotten thing to do. Kind of sucks the fun out of the game.
Some people don't like fighting games.
Replying to #27
Not really, it's all part of the game
my fighting game point was, play a different game, one not with split screen if it angers him so much
he should be talking to is friends about this instead of posting online about it
Replying to #28
It shouldn't be any more a part of the game than the cheats in Age of Empires or GTA.
Figured, but it's only his friends going against the spirit of the game that's annoying him.
Agreed. He might be blowing off steam before confronting them about it if it really got to him though.

XD you're equalling looking over to the right a little to using cheats in a tactics and a gta game
completely different things

Hmm...okay, how about peeking at your opponent's cards in poker?
Replying to #31
Usually you try to be on the opposite side in poker
split screen is there for everyone to see.
try again
Replying to #32
my point is cheating is cheating, but when do you ever play poker with only 2 people? Usually it's around 6 sitting round a table.
Replying to #33
You don't look at your cards in a way that they can see. Look at World Series of Poker. They only show like a corner of it, and that's how I play.

My point is, it's not cheating, when you play split screen, it's to be assumed people will look on each others screens
Replying to #35
Why? When I play with my friends the opposite is assumed. Snipers would be pointless if everyone was screen-watching.

My thoughts exactly, try as you might, unless you have fricken tunnel vison, you'd see portions of their screen, I'm running around in golden eye taking on 2 noobs at once, while the third is getting a gun that I lack (and be afraid of since I'm using a weaker weapon) so I take action and prepare to take him on by setting myself up...
You don't stare at another screen, you glance, otherwise you'd be shot XD
I'm all for sneakiness but it has to be done IN MODERATION with no unfair advantages and just put it to your own skill. CHEATERS CAN GO TO HELL!

Whatever about catching glimpses of the other players' screens, you can not discern the other players' position without actively paying attention to their screen. So the excuse "I can't help but look" is just so much BS.
