Gearbox is working on allowing for as versatile an online setup as possible. Though split-screen co-op online isn't going to be implemented for console gamers at launch, Pitchford told us what to expect. "You can play on your system on both the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 and you can join people online or you can have a friend play with you in a split-screen scenario, but right now we're not able to bring the split-screen online. Maybe we'll be able to find a way to do that later, but that's a technical limitation with the amount of data that's going on it just can't work. That would be something that we'd love to do, and I hope people love the game so that conceivably we could invest in that and find a way."
