That helps a bit if you can play against friends in eashl (haven't tried it yet), but if I understand correctly, it's still limited to 1 person per console, is this correct? What I would like to see is the ability to play with 3 or more people on 2 consoles and be able to choose whether you're locked into a position or your control switches between players. I just don't understand the thought process behind the decision to not include that. If you can play a specific user 1v1 online, and you can choose friends online to play in eashl, why can't you choose friends and play online either vs or co-op in the Play Now mode? Maybe there are logistics issues with programming that prevent this?
