Modern Warfare 2? Killzone 2? Live has Halo, Gears, and of course Modern Warfare 2. Halo reigns supreme of course but Gears 3 will give it some competition as will the new Black Ops COD game. Im sure wondering what multiplayer is the biggest and best on PS3?

By the numbers, I'm pretty sure Socom Confrontation is the most played PS3 exclusive lol. MAG is my flagship multiplayer game on PSN.

Well it ha non, Not like Live, PSN don't run game servers that controls game itself, only provide services that helps to maintain PS3 multiplayer unity.

The thing about the PS3 is that it doesnt have a mascot, flagship exclusive etc. As a result it doesnt have a single game that sells like Halo or Gears or have the amount of online players as Halo or Gears.

There really isnt one to be honest. I would bet MW2 is the most played, but there is significant presence in a lot of multiplayer games for PS3. Playstation users have always been much more fragmented into different genres than Xbox users. There has never really been a Halo for Playstation. On top of that you have games like Little Big Planet which people are always publishing and downloading user content.

I'd say Killzone 2. By the way, shouldn't this be on the Playstation 3 forums and not the System Wars forums?

Sackboy is basically an unofficial mascot for the PS3. It helps that he's easily moddable into other characters.

I didnt say as its a bad thing. Unlike LIVE, PSN has strong communities on many games that are several years old

It's Call of Duty and Battlefield Bad Company.

Most of the people I know that have a PS3 got it because it has Free Online play and they play Call of Duty and Battlefield Bad Company.

Some have Killzone 2 and Uncharted 2 has a pretty good number playing.

Warhawk. Still has tons of people on it and I'd say Socom is 2nd.

I guess, but those games don't last long as well....CoD and BC I mean. I'd say between uncharted 2, warhawk, or socom.

why would this be on the PS3 forums when this thread is clearly a jab against the PS3.

sony does not have a mascot which is why they pump out more ip's then the other companies. they are searching for a mascot even though theyre games are successful and establish a little fanbase they are far from mascots. i.e halo,mario

Flagship on both is MW2. They are both by far the most played multiplayer game on consoles. CoD is right now the biggest and most pushed on both consoles. MS are even getting DLC earlier for it.

None really. People here will say Killzone 2 but none of them will actually play it. MAG is a joke.

Microsofts doing it right with Halo. Gears is kind.....not sure why so many people like it.

pretty sure the most recent post from major nelson put weak ass mw2 back on top so that's probably the most played game on both consoles not surprising considering all the casuals everywhere

Does outnumbering PSN players 2-1 somehow make the games funner?

it's ok to say that gears is broken I was a fan of the first and had a blast but could see how it was niche at the time gears 2 mp was a mess at launch and has got better but not by much. several of my hardcore gears friends stopped playing the game as soon as title update 6 came out

Not quite sure. The only games I ever play online anymore are Resistance 2 and Demon's Souls. Neither seem to have large online communities.

There isn't one and that is one of the great things about PS3. You have variety for online play. 99% of PS3 users don't play only 2 games online.

Lets see there is SOCOM, Warhawk, Uncharted2, MGO, Killzone2, MAG, LBP, MNR are probably the big ones at the moment along with all the multiplats.

SOCOM should have been the flagship because it did so well on PS2 but it hasn't got enough support over the years. Hopefully Zipper will bring it back to the glory days with SOCOM 4 although Confrontation has improved a lot since release. I still prefer SOCOM gameplay over any other shooters out there because it is round based, non respawn, and requires great teamwork.

currently i believe MW2 has the largest no. of players followed by RDR & BF:BC2..

if we're talking mainly shooters PS3 has many other great online games such as SOCOM, Warhawk, KZ2, Uncharted2, MAG & used to have loads of fun on MGO & Resistance2..

Currently on PS3 am playing mostly MW2, RDR & Modnation Racers online :)
