Ratchet and Clank full Frontal Assault: Unable to play 2 player version

I just set up my new PS3 last night and this was the first game I tried.  It did not come with an owners manual and I can not get the second player option to work.  Message keeps popping up that tv is not set up for split screen.

Welcome to the PlayStation Community & the world of PS3 gaming.

 

Many games do not come with the traditional paper manual you are perhaps used to, the owners manual for this & many other games are now digital, once the game is inserted into the PS3 the owners manual will show up on the XMB under or next to the actual game.

 

Split screen should be available to you, check out the manual for further assistance.

 

If we can help you further please let us know.

Could this be the game system causing this and not the game?

The XMB is the on-screen menu you see when the PS3 first boots-up, the one with all the icons.

 

When you put the disc in does it automatially start?, if it does come out of the game again by quitting the game, then go to where the game appears in your game menu on the XMB, it will show up as a picture of a disc, probably underneath that should be another disc icon titled manual.

 

By the way there was no need to start a whole new post/Thread about this, this one is serving your purposes just fine, more than one is called apamming.

No, it's not this.

 

 

In response your other post here: https://community.us.playstation.com/t5/Forum-Information-and-Help/R-and-C-split-screen-games/m-p/39...

 

You could try resetting your PS3's video/audio settings, you can do this by having the TV on your usual channel & the PS3 off with the red light on, then holding down the power/on/off button until you hear 2 beeps, a message will appear on the screen, accpet the settings by hitting "X".

No manual is showing up for this game.  Sorry about starting second post.  It shows the message the way it is worded on the screen,  I thought it might help someone explain what is going on.

Starting another Thread/Post only confuses the issue both for you & others like myself trying to help you, you would be better keeping everything together in one place.

 

It is possible I am wrong about the digital manual, I'm trying to clarify it for you.

 

Did you purchase the PSN version or the retail one?

Like I said above i could be wrong, but I'm still pretty certain that there's a digital maunal for this game.

 

As for the other second post you made about the seettings, did you try the suggestion I made in post #6 above?

 

I'm not sure I can help you further than I can right now, I'll check back here again a little later.

 

Good luck!
