The different buildings was an exaggeration, but if the game has no support for any kind of split-screen, then multiple systems and multiple copies of the game are necessary.
The only option in some games is online play and thus to play with a friend, you both need a system, the game, and an online account.
I'm sitting here right now trading the controller back and forth to play Goldeneye online with my roommate. I really wish they had split-screen online play like in the Halo series.
