If you’ve ever wanted to hook up with a friend and play some splitscreen online multiplayer in a Call of Duty game – but obviously couldn’t – we have some good news for you.

An interview with Treyarch’s Dan Suarez brings confirmation that Call of Duty: Black Ops will allow two people to play online multiplayer matches from the one console in spliscreen mode, a feature that many have been longing for in a Call of Duty game since CoD 3. One again, Treyarch have brought the goods.

Dan Suarez: “Yes, you can play splitscreen on the combat training mode and on multiplayer.”

On another note, Dan Suarez’s interview also reveals some interesting information about Theater Mode. You can watch Theater films and clips, in synchronization, with friends. All you need to do is start, or join a Black Ops Theater lobby (details at 7:20 in interview). Awesome!
