So I see that a lot of people are whining about not having cross game chat and how drastically they need it :roll:

I dont really care for it, and I dont think I'll ever use it if we had it. If cross game chat means that we have to start paying a monthly fee for PSN, then screw, its not worth it one bit. Some people just want everything and they still want it all for free. We get the essential and most important things from the PSN, online gaming, messaging, text chat, voice chat, video chat, cross game text chat, PSN store. People need to be thankful for what we have, and stop being greedy.

PS: I dont want anybody saying "hey how dare you call me greedy and whiny and...", no, I'm not generalizing, this was for the people I described above.

Don't think the ps3 can handle it with only 404MB of usable ram.

I'm really not that concerned with cross game chat, but I would like talk-to-text for sending messages. I just don't like texting a giant message. Voice messaging would be cool as well, but at least talk text.

I can see why you don't think you need it, it's probably because you have never had the option for it. So your just use to not having it. for me I have both XBL and PSN and let me tell you cross game chat is awesome! I use it all the time, and when i'm on PSN I miss it, it's just so much harder to set up games on PSN with buddies without it. On XBL you invite everyone to party chat and ask which game they all want to play and go play it. Or you can just chat with buddies while you play some SP games which I also like to do.

It must be possible, Sony have already confirmed that they're working on it.

I've used it on XBL, its nothing special, It actually takes more effort to do what Raging said, than it does to just start a MP match and send out one group invite. I think many want it, solely because the 360 has it.

Even if it was awesome, do you think cross game chat is THAT important? is it a reason enough for us to pay for PSN? that's what I meant by my topic, not whether or not its useful or cool :P

Yeah they are working on it, but why do you think they are having such a hard time with it? The XMB would run drastically slow, they would have to block out the XMB while using it. If its going to slow down the XMB even more then i dont want it!

There have been so many rumors, I remember when EA were the ones blocking Sony from giving us in-game music and cross-game chat because one of their games wouldn't work because of it. I just think it's a problem with the RAM, if they can keep reducing the footprint then I'm sure we'll see cross-game chat and in-game music. Sony aren't exactly experts at Software development.

Don't bring up that argument. It's just not very good. It's just convenient for one thing to do everything. "Why buy an iPhone? Why not get a phone and an iPod?" :?

I'm sure I'd have fun with cross-game chat if they eventually introduced it, but I don't really care about it either way right now.

i would be comparing my ps3 experience to my 360 experience.. the 360 menu loads instantly when i hit the home button, the ps3 xmb can take up to around ten seconds when i hit the home button..

Easest way would let us download something like teamspeak and vent from the PSN for cross chat.

trust me cross gameing chat ruins x box live.

theres no communication with anyone and ultimatly no coordinated strategy in matches. and the ones where you get to coordinate a strategy are the best types of online matches.

keep it the way it is. or at least just dont allow party chat for online matches. it would be nice to play games while talking to freinds

That is one thing that doesn't bother me one way or the other I don't care to do alot of talking when I'm gaming and don't care to here a bunch of screaming and swearing
