Resident Evil 5 Finally Adds Split-Screen Co-Op For PC
After 14 years, Resident Evil 5 has received a Steam patch removing Games for Windows Live while also implementing split-screen co-op, finally letting you play it locally with your friends and family. As reported by Euro Game r, this out-of-left-field update has both bewildered and excited fans, with many jumping to the update's discussion thread to comment. One user said, "Yo, who is the rogue Capcom employee that cared enough to fix this port 14 years later?" Another said, "Holy crap, they updated this old Game ? Good on them".

Some other minor bug fixes." It's unclear why this has been done after so long, but it's a welcome fix, as GFWL has long been discontinued and, when enabled, can lock you out of entire parts of Game s.
