    Hey guys. ;]

    Since the release of RE5 I've been wondering.. Why does the splitscreen show up like that? I'll try to explain myself since english is not my first language. *sigh*

    In older games (heh..) splitscreen was horizontal/vertical filling the whole television/monitor, but in RE5 and 6 they decided to "resize" it leaving a lot of blank space.

    It could have been for the HUD? Nope, because it is inside the player's portion itself.
    Do you know something clearer about this decision?

    Did RE5 have as bad split screen? I recall it filling the screen nicely unlike whatever is going on in this game. I really don't see the advantage of having less screen space.

    It's sized to keep the proper aspect ratio, if it filled up the whole screen it would be stretched out horizontally. 5 did this as well
