One Big Screen, Two Games
About five seconds after playing my first game on my new big screen plasma I realized that I had purchased a really big televison without picture-in-picture. And then I cussed for about ten minutes. I was thinking how cool it would be to have a show up on half of the tv and the game on the other half. But it was not meant to be.
Rappateng just posted up his own experiement over on RedAssedBaboon. He and his wife, an avid gamer herself, took to the couch and spent the evening playing games on the Xbox and the Xbox 360 using the picture-in-picture of their 54-inch television. He played Splinter Cell: Chaos Theory on the left side of the television using his Xbox and she played Ghost Recon: Advanced Warfighter on the right side using the Xbox 360.
The only issue they ran into was that only one game had audio at a time, but thanks to Live chat, that wasn't even much of an issue. Damnit, I wish I had PiP.
