i meant to say how many 360 and ps3 games you've played online. there is a noticeable difference in being able to communicate with friends and downloading things.

..can't speak for communication but DAMN was the PS3 slow when it came to downloading. And once your item was downloaded it had to install the game.. <- I never understood that with PS3.

I've played halo 3, Halo Reach, Halo 4, fable 2, Mw2, burnout paradise,  GTA IV, Gears of War 2 & 3 and armored core IV for answer on 360. On Ps3 I've played MW2, GTA IV, Burnout Paradise, Modnation Racers, Killzone 2 & 3 and Black ops 2, LBP2, and Uncharted 3. I'm probably missing a few from each side.

Sure.. Wii U's online is free...... Free of service :lol: 

even multiplat's are released without online... let's face it... paying for online sucks but you know what.. if you're gonna do it it's probably because you're planing to use it in the first place, which is something the Wii U can't do because it has no games to go online for. Even less to pay for.

WiiU doesn't have very many online games. Nintendo don't do online for their games, 3rd parties are stripping out their online modes (New Batman) and even COD is apparently a ghost town. Nothing to brag about.

I've seen upto 3,000 people online on CoD on the WiiU at on time and MH Tri is healthy as usual, People still be playing it on the Wii if Capcom didn not kill off online.

Good to hear, I guess that means I'll just have to wait until I get a Wii U instead of getting the 3DS version.

Too bad the servers are dead.
No one is playing on them, like a 1000 worldwide only.
Takes about 30mins to connect up to a room.
Has NO support for patches.
Lags.

In fact, its even worse than its free. Gives room for a lot of errors. Free is one thing, having something broken and free is wasting your time.

360/PS3 online > Wii:U.... (PS4/X1 is not out yet to the masses) Thread backfired.

It's free.

93BlackHawk93

Well ps4 online games that are free to play are actually free to play. Sony also lets game developers/publishers decide if they want to put games behind the PS+ paywall. Apps like chat, messaging, netflix, hulu and such are also free.

But really nintendos online being free isnt that great because its the worst online service of them all right now. Ps3, 360, vita, pc and well everything is far superior to what nintendo tries to pass off as a online service. So yeah a shit sandwhich might be free, but that doesnt make it better.

g0ddyX

uh...what? :?

I have yet to hit a Laggy Match in any of my WiiU games.

Games take about the same amount of time it does on a PS3 or 360 Online. It probably takes more than 30 mins to connect because WiiU's online isn't as popular as PSN or Xbox Live.

It has Support for Patches, Games on WiiU get updated all the time.

The Amount of Support a game gets is only as much the 3rd Party Publisher is willing to give it. See Call of Duty BLOPS2 and Assassin's Creed 3 on WiiU.

To what extent did Xbox 360 charge for online? Did games that offered leader boards require a paid subscription? I mostly just use online for competing with others' high scores.

Other things similarly as free as wii u online: Not going to the World Cup final. Not having that steak dinner Going to the free council park instead of Alton Towers Using the powers of imagination instead of going to the cinema. Freebies galore!

But Psn IS better. :lol:

No it's not, the extra $60 may not worth it, but it is a fact that XBL is a better, faster and more reliable online service compared to PSN. Heck you can't even change your username on PSN, how stupid is that?
