Any reason a game is better on the 360 than the PS3 the lemmings will find it, even if it is the smallest thing.

That has nothing to do with the point he is making. Its delayed because EA is making it for the PS3. But Team fortress for the 360 shows that the Xbox Live is not as perfect as many people wanna believe and that just because MS charges doesnt mean its perfect.

That report isn't quite accurate. My XBox 360 version of COD4 has so much difficulty connecting to the server,i have given up on COD multiplayer. Good thing the single player is so good, and I'm getting Assassin's Creed (for PS3)this week, otherwise, I'd be pissed. And no, it isn't my LAN settings, because I have no difficulty playing Halo 3, Timeshiftor R6V multiplayer. Stupid COD multiplayer...

Despite the high population in SW, lemmings know odds are against them in the real world. They try to dig up anything they can to make PS3 look bad.

Interesting. I tried for about 20 minutes to get into a game on XBL about an hour ago, and by the looks of it I'm not alone

I don't know about the PS3 version, but the 360 version is far from "flawless"

It has nothing to do with that my friend. PSN has no problems caused in COD4 during the weekend (I'm not having issues anymore. Perfect, lag-less.)

The problem was IW didn't anticipate as many people to buy the game so their servers were a little weaker. They upgraded the servers in order to eliminate the problem. I'm not getting any issues. In the end, so what, I had trouble for what, 1 hour during the weekend getting into gamesbut now it's flawless. You on the other hand, can get 1 hour extra of gameplay + pay $50. Enjoy :) I love the PSN. Lag-less, free, great. It's growing at the same time with more features. So yeah, you get what you paid for. Well, not with Live really, I don't think you pay for anything unless you really think Microsoft supplies the P2P servers you game on.

And of course it has absolutely nothing to do with Sony's brilliant idea to use free dedicated servers that are going to be bottlenecked due to the amount of people using PSN does it? This is the main argument lemmings give for the reason why P2P is better than dedicated servers. The host advantage sucks in P2P and the 360, the load on dedicated servers often become too much for them to handle with the PS3. Each has it's ups and downs however I highly doubt much is going to be done about it on Sony's end or whatever company is running the servers because it is free.

Actually, I'm playing COD4 on psn right now, no lag....EVER....except people in china and stuff, which is barley, they only walk extremely slow, no dissapearing or anything....

They've fixed the problems, I find games instantly, no lag, and have been playing since 4:00 now, no problems...

Um yea...we had to wait for them to fix it...what, 6 days?And no lag for free forever just for a few days of trouble with loading....

Also, TF2 lags, Halo 3 lags, EVERY GAME LAGS, from time to time, pretty much only Rainbow Six Vegas, and that crappy soccer game lagged, but that was because of poor dev. feedback, and lack of intrest....never seen a patch on either the games, but every other is pretty much lag free.....

So yea..you fail...this coming from someone who played BOTH services allot....

Say anything you want about psn, but it still doens tlag like u think, or suck...

You guys seriously make me laugh. PSN had a problem with COD4 only for a short period of time (thats right, its working great now, and it was before, just that at times you couldn't log in so you had to go back and log in again into the multiplayer) and you act as if every PS3 games does this. I'm sorry, but XBL hardly allows games to pass a certain gap. Resistance has 40 players game lag-free, and w/o server issues. Warhawk has 32 player games. RSV is the only game that has actually lagged at times and even that wasn't so bad. Everytime I play CoD4, I never lag, my bars are always high, and it's fast and easy to find games. Stop taking little things and making them sound so bad. In the end, I get an extra $50 to buy something extra while you pay for P2P servers, that even if they lag or not, still shouldn't be something you pay for. Anyway, you guys on the 360 side, enjoy CoD4. I'll enjoy it to on the PS3 side. I'll enjoy it w/o lag. And maybe so will you. The thing is, at the end of the year, I walk out with $0 extra and you walk out with -$50. Also, please don't say ppl on PSN have no mics. Every game is filled with mics.

360 version is nowhere near flawless. It wasn't working saturday (barely) because live was down (this also affected every other game on 360, and it pi**ed off a lot of people).

Although it was working today, it would still take a while to get into a game. It also inexplicably freezes quite often when you select the type of match you want to find.

how can you expect from a a free server???

but I didn't expect only about 1/5 ps3 cod4 users(compare to xb360 cod4)can make PSN down.

I got disconnected a few times on Friday/Saturday but it played flawlessly today for a good 4-5 hours. Much less of a hassle than waiting weeks to get your 360 fixed

well of course ps3 is gonna have issues. for one they have a very small user base compared to the 360 and on top of that they have to deal with the ps3 network which i would think is proving itself to be a bigger issue then the 360's. but i boils down to users which the ps3 has ALOT less of.

I love how this thread goes two pages when its a none story in the first place.

Tell me, what does this have to do with PS3 capabilities? What does this have to do with PSN being free? NOTHING.

Quit trying to pull "teh pwnage" out of your ass.
