People have very short memories, and it was during the Holidays....which forced me to spend time with my family......and I don't like my family:evil:

I'm sure that recent ban helped Live out

$2.50 a month for a few years... or have a free network that has a problem for one game that will be fixed in a matter of days.

Also, you make it seem like this has never happened to Xbox Live.

Also, Considering that the issue is now fixed, How will you justify next Month's $2.50 fee?

I'm confused. When xbl had its issues with cod4 and Halo3, didn't xbL go down ALL together. Meaning NO activity on xbl. For the life of me, the only thing I remember having issues was mw2 on psn. Maybe I'm missing something here lol.

And also has geow2 got its issues fixed yet? That question is there to show most games online issues come from the game and its devs and NOT our services ie xbL or psn. If psn couldn't handle mw2, well then psn itself would have went down. And if it did I guess I blinked or something.

ocuh howcome im playing MW2 RIGHT NOW and ONLINE on my PS3 oh lol.....i forgot Demonware put the servers back and they are totally fine never ran into a problem in the last 3h.

Sorry but you got served.the problems been fixed all of them in 3 days. ahahahahaha wow pretty good justification there when the points are already obsolete.

A new update was issued for MW2 PS3 that fixed a problem with Trophies, but what followed as an even worse problem -- PS3 users found the multiplayer portion completely unplayable. Ouch.

Apparently the latest patch, 1.02, has killed online connectivity for a lot of games

the core issue at the moment is the PSN can't handle the load that is being requested from it.

"The amount of players on MW2 PSN overwhelmed the PSN presence server"

ps - Cow mathematicians go away - I got Live subscription on sale for $30, hence the 2.50 per month figure)

This lem has selective memory. Anyways MW2 is already fixed on PS3.

Also, I just got a Xbox 360, but I can't afford to get live, so the online aspect for games would really be useless to me, even though I really want to play online.

because gears of war 2 performed splendid online at launch and is already fixed............oh wait nevermind.

I'm confused. When xbl had its issues with cod4 and Halo3, didn't xbL go down ALL together. Meaning NO activity on xbl. For the life of me, the only thing I remember having issues was mw2 on psn. Maybe I'm missing something here lol.

And also has geow2 got its issues fixed yet? That question is there to show most games online issues come from the game and its devs and NOT our services ie xbL or psn. If psn couldn't handle mw2, well then psn itself would have went down. And if it did I guess I blinked or something.

This is what is known as selective memory. Gee, just about a month ago, Borderlands didn't work. There were issues with a 1st party online only game, meaning, the game was unplayable which is ridiculous considering it was a big IP with big expectations (Socom).

Valid point, but the service and the developers both have a hand in the issue. Broken matchmaking is usually a dev issue. Being unable to load into a match is a service issue.

And while Socom did have issues, the game was definitly playable and NO one including me ever stated that /6 was top notch devs lol. So once again most issues with a games functions online are usually dev issues and their backbone at their end. Hence, borderland dev's patching, /6 patching and epic patching to get their games working properly.

And when I was stating the only issues was mw2, I was stating about how psn was functioning as a whole during mw2's issues, I wasn't talking about other games issues.

[QUOTE="Vandalvideo"][QUOTE="Nidget"] All sub-AAA :lol: punkrocker163

remember, remember the 5th of november...last year? The lemmings only cared about AAAE. Now that the PS3 is pretty much even with it and they went almost a year without a AAAE(and both those games were Halo...:lol: ). NOW AA's are just as good if not better?

I prefer Live over PSN anyday. Now that I got a job. It used to be the other way around. Though 60(cdn) bucks is a little pricey, I admit.
