Oh well.
[QUOTE="mD-"]Multiplayer king? Yea right. Ps3 exclusives are abandoned as soon as Cod comes out. A year from now it wont have half the player count of Gears 3 Numbers lie you know. And also the PS3 has ton of big multiplayer games so it's only natural that their exclusives are dispersed in player count compared to 360 games. I'm also willing to bet that you know nothing about Starhawk, which explains why you can not embrace the glory of this multiplayer beast.Maybe old, but still nice:

Look, im not downplaying the game. Im just saying that compared to the 360, PS3 exclusives are forgotten fast in the MP department. Halo reach still has 150k + on weekends.

I have no trouble joining games in Uncharted 2, despite most people leaving after ND lowered health. LBP 1 is still alive as well.
Other than Killzone 3, those are the only PS3 games I own with online multiplayer. So I can't speak on behalf of other exclusives...

Like I said, not downplaying the games as being bad, just stating a point. 360 exclusives are renowned for multiplayer. The communities stay for years after release. Hell, even Halo 3 still has around 50k on weekends.[QUOTE="mD-"][QUOTE="Plagueless"] Multiplayer king? Yea right. Ps3 exclusives are abandoned as soon as Cod comes out.

No, he's saying the game's aren't forgotten, they just have smaller communities because there're more games to choose from so, naturally, people have a better chance to find something they really like rather than just play something because that's what's available.
The 360 doesn't have as many great MP games as the PS3, and that isn't even opinon, it's just a fact. The ps3's exclusives alo tend to be more difficult, thus they have a higher learning curve, but this also allows them to be much deeper than typical MP fare.
Warhawk is the best MP game that's come out this generation, and still has tons of players. They all have the DLC as well, which makes Warhawk one of the few games to successfully integrate DLC into the MP without splitting the community.
[QUOTE="Plagueless"][QUOTE="MFDOOM1983"]At uc2's peek it was reaching 60k. Resistance and kz games barely have anyone online in comparison. ShadowDeathXExactly my point. Gears 3 right now has 300-400k on weekends Back when Halo 3 released there were over 800k online the first weekend, and almost a million the first Reach weekend. Who cares??? It is not like you are going to play with 800k different people. I rather have people play various amounts of games instead of most of them being bunched up in a few games. your point is invalid as they are spread across many games. Its not like on PS3 where 80% of the people online are playing BO and MW2.

Gears of War has a big learning curve. Halo does as well to an extent. With regard to Warhawk, you are correct about the DLC but the best MP game this gen is all opinion. IMO the best MP game this gen is either Halo 3 or BF2142.That's kinda overstating it. It's not the best, but trash? cmon man.multiplayer king? joke thread?
uncharted multiplayer is absolute trash

Are you serious? Killzone 3's MP owns all the other PS3 games. I would have thought it wold be quite popular
In the position that the PS3 is in, in my eyes there's no way that it will ever match some of the numbers of 360 games in terms of players online. There are a variety of reasons for this, but the main point is that even if the PS3 had the best multiplayer game ever created, it wouldn't be able to match the 360 number wise? Now, does that mean it can't be a multiplayer king because it doesn't have Call of Duty numbers? No, not at all. You don't have to have 300k players playing every weekend to be considered a multiplayer king. If you have a great multiplayer, good/active community, staying power, and have the ability to always find games during appropriate hours, these are elements of a good multiplayer.
Uncharted 2, Killzone 3, Modnation Racer's, etc all have communities of people still playing today.
And Uncharted 2 peaking at 60k is complete BS. I know that game had like 80k for a while at it's peak and that's still plenty of players. It was also Uncharted 2's first multiplayer attempt. You can be sure that way more will be playing this time.
Now back to Starhawk.
You guys know that back in the day, Warhawk was one of the PS3's most popular online shooter right? And there weren't many TPS like that because of the whole dog fighting aspect of the game...
Anyways, Starhawk has all the elements of a multiplayer king. How can you argue with:
- 4 player split screen (with separate PSN login)
- 16 vs 16, 32 player matches
- TPS (w/Jetpacks) + Dogfighting + Mech Combat + RTS (build and battle), ALL IN ONE
- Matchmaking AND Custom Games (yeah that's right)
- Variety of great maps featuring Space combat
- Player vehicle customization
- Very balanced gameplay
This was my point. To me though I dont understand why the PS3 doesnt get the player like the 360 does. They have the numbers on COD, so ehy not on anything else?In the position that the PS3 is in, in my eyes there's no way that it will ever match some of the numbers of 360 games in terms of players online.

[QUOTE="mD-"]Multiplayer king? Yea right. Ps3 exclusives are abandoned as soon as Cod comes out. A year from now it wont have half the player count of Gears 3 Funny because Warhawk actually has people playing,and is a 2007 game. By the way why bring Gears into this thread.? Half a year you say.? In 1 month Gears 3 will not have half the people it has now,MW3 will eclipse it,if Black ops is not already beating it. By the way since when been the most populated mean been the best multiplayer game,isn't this kind of accepting that COD is the best multiplayer game on 360.?Maybe old, but still nice:

There's a multiplayer king now? :?FunconsoleWell of course. There is a king for everything. And we all know the PS3 wins in all categories. [spoiler] I have no idea why anyone would name a "MP king." [/spoiler]

Warhawk was such an underrated game imo.. I remember being one of the first mp games along Resistance & Motorstorm i spent countless hours playing.. Obviously Warhawk was the best game when it came to mp at the time and had a great community..
Was hoping to see eventually a sequel to this game, but we can say Starhawk is its spiritual successor.. Definately looking forward to this game..

And gears aswell will substantially drop when CoD comes out aswell, making your point a little muted.A lot of folks will get gears to tide them over then sell sell sell in November, a couple of my mates are even though its a fantastic game why trade it in at all.
