Split Second borrows similar philosophies from Burnout - made-up Unlicensed cars, great graphics, wanton vehicular destruction and road debris, rewarding successful play with tools to help win the race.
Co-op
Players who bring up Co-op mostly praise it.

I got to play a couple of rounds with my girlfriend in the split screen mode, which was decently fun.
Audio

And what's even more great, is how the sound design masterfully alerts you of a nearly level 2 powerplay going off.
Steam Deck
Players who bring up Steam Deck mostly praise it.
