Skate 2 was perfectly fine on PSN.So im guessing 3 will be the same.

GTA IV i never had a problem with either, i do have more problems with connection issues when i play on my wireless network over using wired tho for some reason.

i dont know wath u are talkin about i get 16 players in a second playing GTA IV, and i never played the online in skate 2 so i ant tell you.

The myth that PSN doesn't have any players is just a myth, besides, there are almost as many people on the PSN as XBOXLIVE

PSN has almost as much as 360. Take any game not in the top ten for 360 and theres nothing. Every game but a few on the PS3 that I have played and theres always some sort of community online.

There will be no difference. The only thing that might happen is problems with connecting at the very beginning. Other than that, get it on whichever console you want!

I'm pretty sure those games will do fine over PSN...I'm not too good with predictions, but I'm pretty confident both games will sell more than a hundred copies for the PS3 :P. More than enough for a few multiplayer rounds.

I have never had any problem finding people to play on PSN, nor have I had any connection issues or anything of the sort. Not to mention that it is free. With that, I'll be picking up RDR on the PS3 and am sure I will have no problem getting a game online. I have absolutely zero interest in Skate 3, but I am willing to bet the online will be fine for it as well.

GTAIV's online was a nightmare on practically every platform. I think i played about five matches before i gave up on it forever out of sheer frustration at the lag and difficulty in getting a game going.

I see your point but I have to disagree, I thought it was a mediocer at least because when you have a full on party you can actually have fun. Bad online= BIA: HH

im not trolling, im a type of guy who needs ask people questions before make a descision. Besides all fo the RDR videos i have seen was on X360. And that gives me a bad feeling that it will be better on X360. My biggest reason for getting X360 is Halo/gears and xbox live. Since i heard from many people that they say games like Skate and RDR wich isnt so popular in the gaming industry will sell and perform better on X360. I dont know if those guys was trolling or where fanboys... but that gave me a bad feeling. So thats why i made this topic, i like games like wich isnt so hyped in the industry like RDR and Skate. But games like Cod gets to fast boring for me, because its the same thing the whole time

dont worry about it theres enough people to go around not all 360 fanboys love Halo(I think) but they certainly loves to try a new game.

I'm not downloading anything. I'll get RDR on dvd disk form for my XBox 360 when it comes out. I'm not wasting my HDD on full release games. This way after I beat the game, I can sell it on Ebay for $30+

GTA4's online is pretty much dead on PS3, XBOX360 and PC. You wont find many players outside deathmatch, races and free roam. A new game like RDR will be thriving with new players for a long time.

GTA IV's problem was horrid matchmaking, every time you get into a lobby you sit there while Party leader changes settings, then you get close to 8 or more peoople in it finally then they start leaving because the leader takes forever to start the game.

The only thing that fails the skate games online is its actual online gameplay itself. Not whether its on PSN or XBL. And I dont know why RDR would fail online. It looks amazing

LOL WUT??? GTA4 online on PSN is fine, I still play GTA4 (mostly Freemode), and to me is just active as always, plus I think there more people on it now since the DLCs came out. Im getting RDR on PS3 and I know the wont be any lack ofcommunity. Anyways is "fact" that there are more people online on PS3 than on 360

I have both systems & I've decided to buy RDR for my PS3. I dont think that you have any need for concern.

I play(ed) GTA 4 on PSN quite frequently. I'm a level 9 and I'm a beast. Theres a very strong harcore sect of players that play nothing but GTA 4.

I was playing the new one around Christmas time on my nephews 360, and while it had people, it wasn't very packed.

At anyrate, if you want to race or fight with me just send me a tell, I'll meet you anytime :)
