With all due respect, it isn't the system specs that are preventing certain features it is the choice of the developer to prioritize certain features (namely graphics) over others (in this case: player experience). Yes those specs are something that are limiting, but it's the developers choice as to what ultimately is limited. I played splitscreen on my n64, and honestly if it took destiny looking like Goldeneye to be playable in splitscreen I would prefer it, but don't tell me that a feature that worked over a decade ago, MUST suddenly be restricted due to current system specifications. I don't mean to bite your head off but being an apologist, and even more being an apologist for what might be and not what is, isn't going to convince me or anyone else to change our minds on the subject, so I really don't understand your intention when trying to curb people's expectations. I really don't like being told what I should expect. I have my expectations, and if you think they are too lofty, that's just like your opinion man. I will not be pleasantly surprised if Destiny has splitscreen, I will expect that it will until told otherwise, because that is the standard I am holding console developers to. It is important that we as consumers hold developers to a standard rather than being apologists for them. If you want to be like you are that's fine, I just don't want anyone to try convince me not to do what I'm doing personally. But console developers need to realize that they are making themselves irrelevant the more they limit shared screen experiences. I will be that prophet if no one else will be. There is no difference between a PC game and console game if I can't sit shoulder to shoulder with my wife, brother, or friend, and plug in my controller next to theirs. Without splitscreen in Destiny (or any other major next gen games) I doubt I'd purchase a next-gen console besides the Wii U, because although Nintendo has fallen behind as far as online experience and system performance, at least they know what separates a console from other experiences (hint: it isn't graphics). For non nintendo titles I'll just upgrade my PC at a fraction of the price of getting a new console, and since consoles don't provide shared experiences within the confines of my living room, I won't be missing out on a thing.
