It depends, I think. I used to agree with the 2nd player if we were going to allow watching the screen of the opponent or not.

Either way it's fun as long as both parties are aware of the rules.

Not at all. Looking at the one screen isn't cheating.

I used to know someone who thought it was cheating, and it was the stupidest thing I've ever heard.

How do you even fucking not see the other person's screen?

Because you're focusing on your side of the screen, you filthy cheater.

Split screen is the reason that Starcraft 64 was better than its PC counterpart.

There's a difference between seeing a bit of their screen with your peripheral vision and like staring at their screen and using it to move your character so they can't shoot you.

I always said no. Information is available to all players involved and requires knowledge of maps to be useful. Pkus, if you do it to much, you will be distracted.

I completely forgot this was even a thing. I haven't done split screen multiplayer in such a long time because of how it's been mostly phased out of gaming due to online.

The way I see it there's really no form of competitive split screen out there. So it's not really an issue because PVP that is competitive doesn't take place in split screen single tv environments. It's more of a party atmosphere thing.

There's also no way to check to see if someone is doing it. So it's one of those things where everyone does it because it's almost impossible to avoid.

Not cheating. If you are playing split screen everyone has the same advantage.
