There is no split-screen Quake engine in existence.

But I like splitscreen when I play coop doom/hexen/heritic. Its just more fun when the friend is right next to you working together. But it will be harder for a person to play COOP on quake than on doom.

But I wish you can do it for HL, because I wanted to make a cool game for my friend which we both can play.
