Simple MW2 Multiplayer Question

[JimbobDa3rd]

Ive searched around and cant really find an answer.
Does the console versions of MW2 have local multiplayer, IGN says 2 player co-op local but I find it hard to believe IW left out local multiplayer altogether and I dont really want to buy it if I cant game with freinds as im a very sociable gamer and loved the WAW 4 player split screen.

^It's known as being sociable.
its more fun to pay with friends in the room than talk to them through a microphone.
and i'm pretty sure it does have splitscreen.

Pretty sure there is. The Tactiacal Nuke videos were filmed on Xbox 360 and it was spliscreen.
