It seems to me PS3 has a far better online experience than COD4 in terms of lag. I honestly don't ever recall experiencing lag with this game. 360 users seem to complain about it often.

It's very rare that I lag on the Xbox 360 while playing COD. That's one thing I really like about the game.

I thought this only depends on your own connection or who ever is the host.

I've never encountered lag on either version. But I never played it online all that much.

I think I read back in 2007 that the PS3 version of this game had(s) Dedicated servers? It was a long time ago.

I own both versions, I have little issue, but I haven't played the game in over a year, so I don't remember it so well.

Too many games to play for me to play games from 2007 (COD4, Halo 3, Uncharted, Ratchet, etc.)

Nope, both are client hosted. It only lags if you get a host with a bad connection, but even thats rare, well for me anyway.

CoD 4 rarely lags on me on 360. Neither does WaW or Halo 3. Gears is probably the worst lagging game I have played on Live, and even that was fairly minor. Every online system experiences lag and latency, it comes with being online.

I've had connection problems and lag almost every time I go over to my friends to play PS3, but none of my other friends xbox. It all depends on connection.

No. System Wars is entirely based on opinion, I'm not going out of my way to put an 'IMO' for the sake of your self-security.

I get very little lag on my ps3 except every now and then my blutooth headset interfears and i have to turn the headset on and off, 360 gets a little bit more though they are side by side, overall cod 4 has very little lag, halo 3 has more.

Point of contention. I rarely can get a game in COD4 for PS3. I always just wind up sitting at the downloading settings screen. I would say it's my connection, but I have no such issues with COD4 on the 360 or WaW, KZ2, UFC or SFIV on the PS3. It is just COD4 on the PS3.

The first week or two of the game on ps3 it had problems conencting to friends partys and other games, but it was post game problems from everyone buying the game, once the servers were relaxed it was lag free for almost all my games.

I have both systems on a 50 Mb connection and the lag and hit detection on 360 is pretty bad compared to the ps3 version, I just purchased a xbox elite this week to play with friends that aren't on ps3 and I was shocked at how bad its been, kill cams are a joke and I need to use more ammo to make a simple kill, also game play stutters and freezes on occasion not to mention people using lag switches which I have never encountered on psn. I had high hopes that it was going to be better than psn but unfortunately not, I will definitely be playing mw2 on ps3.

I must say...I can count on my hands how many laggy matches I've had with CoD4 on 360. The majority of the times my connection is perfect (however many bards that is...5 I'm guessing), and sometimes it's 4 bars. Never experience any lag issues. ^_^ I was surprised seeing as how hectic the game is.

Fair enough, I dont doubt what people are saying, maybe I'm just getting a bad connection to Live although Halo 3 online has been great so far.
