Perfect Dark has both i believe, but that's not the point im making. Xbox Live, and PSN have nothing to dow ith online quality, the devs host the servers, not Xbox Live or PSN. Nothing hold Xbox Live back from having more dedicated servers. And why are we all of a sudden only talking about exclusive games that use them? Just to have the edge i imagine.

[QUOTE="StealthKnife"][QUOTE="Verge_6"] And so does Live. Where have you been for the last few years?Verge_6

I'm tired of this.

These nubs don't understand network typology at all. Dedicated servers do not act well for anything outside of the game. Try to listen to someone's headset on a PSN game. You suffer massive packet loss about once ever 15 seconds. Xbox Live? Doesn't even cut out. And let's not even talk about the PSN game crashes. If one node starts fail in Halo 3, then that player either lags horribly and is booted. If just the tiniest bit of packet loss occurs on KZ2, everyone gets disconnected.

Learn network typology. Learn the pros and cons. By saying Dedicated is better than P2P, you are saying Xenos is better Cell, because they basically act in a similiar manner.

[QUOTE="StealthKnife"][QUOTE="-Snooze-"] PSN uses dedicates servers ... so does Xbox live. What you mean to say is that top PS3 games implement dedicates servers, whereas top 360 games dont.-Snooze-

[QUOTE="StealthKnife"] name a xbox exlusive that uses dedicated?? thats why hardly any xbl game has more then 16 players online, while most psn games have over 32StealthKnife

Stealth why do you always bump your own topics weeks after the discussion has ended? good grief give it a rest :roll:hopesfall2own

[QUOTE="-Snooze-"]

[QUOTE="StealthKnife"] please name 1 xbl exclusive that has dedicated, they is none, MS fees are not going to "give better servers" its all p2p i believe they are some nonexclusive dedicated like the orange box, but i might be wrong, ive never played it. StealthKnife

[QUOTE="StealthKnife"][QUOTE="Verge_6"] Oh good God, really? I mean...seriously? The reason why the PS3 has more 16+ player online games is NOT due to developer choice, but due to the fact that Live has NO (in your world, anyways) dedicated servers? You really don't know anything about online gaming. You don't even know of a single freaking game on Live that has a dedicated server (L4D and MoH:A off the top of my head).

then why do most ps3 games noticeably lag more :|

i have both, and i can tell you, the lag is most certainly worse on ps3

[QUOTE="Verge_6"][QUOTE="StealthKnife"] yes 2 nonexclusive games L4d!! thats what i was thinking of as the semi exclusive! thats the only game... Itr interesting how you knew that from the top of your head. Because i had to google it awhile back StealthKnife

Plus battlefield.

So that's like 6 for the xbox, and about 7 for the PS3.

Agreed.Gears 1 & 2 lag like crazy but Killzone 2 and R2 have no lag at all.

lag=dependant upon host's upload bandwidth.

PS3 has a lot of lag too. Just play the orange box and you will notice it just as much if not worse than the 360 version. I know I have both. I do admit I have never had any lag with the exclusives of the PS3, but then again I do not play online very much on the 360. Oh well here we go again with a pointless process of opinions.

You get what you paid for (supposedly), and considering that PSN is FREE, it does a pretty damn fine job in providing a smooth online gaming experience.

Not like this discussion even matters since if you own the console(s) you pretty much stuck withPSN and/or XBL.

I havent noticed much lag in KZ 2 or R2. a little bit in R2 but virtually none in KZ2.

I've only been dropped from 1 game of KZ 2 in about 30 hrs of play.. so that aint bad.

I think it's not about which platform has more lags, lag is always there, whether it's noticeable or not.

If you're playing with someone within the same region, lag is very minimal.

Yes dedicated server is always great, no host advantage, everyone equals.

I think the main thing is what is the reason to justify paying for Pee-to-Peer connection?.... I don't know dude
