After completing single player you unlock a 4 player survival mode with Nazi zombies. Players are required to hold a structure by buying weapons, ammo, and fortifying the structure. This mode is playable in 2 player split screen as well as online.

Note: You are unable to save progress while playing in Split Screen co-op.

One step in the right direction. I used to take issue when a game didn't have split screen but for you hard core co-op players it really doesn't get any better than system link. It bugs the hell out of me when games only have Live support (mercs2,ace combat,too human) so this game and Left for Dead get props for having more than the norm of 2 max player system link co-op content. The only bummer about this game is that it is too short and you miss some of the missions that are 1 person specific in the game.

The game can be played co-op with 4 players via system link I promise, You do not have to be on Live.

Fun to play, DO NOT BUY FOR CO-OP! Playing co-op does not save your progress and will not unlock new levels. This is the stupidest thing I've ever heard of!

Don't buy it if you plan on playing with friends!

Cant save the game on coop which sucks, online multiplayer sucks they need to figure out what consumers want in a game besides graphics and levels.

by: ScArZz9 on 02.15.2009

The fact that they advertise this game as this great multiplayer game makes me sick to my stomach, my wife and i were trying to figure out how we can both go online ,after finding out that you can't i became furious !!!The whole reason why i brought that game is so that me and her can play another shotting game where u can level up and play against other people together. it just pisses me off to no end how you cant play with 2 xbox live accounts at the same time. im getting tired of playin Halo 3,and i thought that this would have ben a good game to switch to but obviously not. they need to figure out how to do that, and quick b cuz thats what really makes it an online game, to me at least

This game sucks due to the fact I sat and played it with my husband we shut it off and then tried to get back on and what do you know nothing saved....thats some B.S.

It's not even true spliscreen because you don't even get half of the screen. WTF? I mean in this day and age that is total BS!!! The only reason i bought this is because there were no other spliscreen ganes out at the time. My girlfriend and i love co-op.

by: Brainp0wa on 02.02.2009

Good game but the lack of online split-screen leaves a very sour taste in my mouth especially since the Nazi Zombie mode is so fun.
