  • the ps3 does not have cross game chat because the ps3 cant do crossgame chat because it hasn't got the ram and before all the ps3 fanboys start shouting "its got the same amount of ram as the 360" yes it has but its utilised in a different way which prevents crossgame chat. so if you want crossgame chat buy a 360.

  • It never lived, so it can't die. Anyway, I don't really mind if it doesn't have cross-game chat, I can't think of any practical use for it.

  • 360 can have cross game chat, ps3 gets cross platform chat and online gaming with PC/Mac and PS vita. Portal2, dust514, counter strike. I which I prefer

  • The nigga with the glasses is such a fucking dork sonnn..

  • Seriously what's with console wars, they r all video games which we all love

  • @pvtwyatt True gamers know it is not the system he/she is playing which matters, but the game WITHIN the system.

  • So it's on ur iphone...that's not an Xbox

  • @ps3BLOWS123 Too late

    "active installed base" of the PS3 has overtaken that of the Xbox 360. Apparently, Sony's machine reached 43.4 million at the end of 2010 compared to 42.9m for the Microsoft console.

    In cumulative sales, the ps3 is a mere 3 million behind despite the 360 getting a one year head start... The ps3 will overtake the 360 in cumulative sales within a few months.

  • @ps3BLOWS123 The ps3 is about to overtake the 360 in sales. By your logic, the ps3 will be superior as soon as it sold more than the 360

  • If they said that the ps3 allows anything, why no cross game chat?

  • @TheCubanGamer101 ha lol ikr

    playstation

    it

    only

    does

    everything (except cross game chat)

  • Man dude its what ever

  • To be honest i dont care bout this problem i just hook up my turtle beaches to skype and the ps3 works exactly the same

  • its called skype

  • good thing vita has cross game chat lol

  • You may not have cross game chat, but there are still cross game chatrooms. You can type and message to your friends in a chat (making contact on PS3 alot faster easier and smoother) whilst playing games. Just open a Text Chat, Give it a name, invite friends, they join, start up your game and press the PS button. Go to Text Chat and go back in. Voila, your in a text chat whilst in a game meaning you can speak to people whilst playing a game. Cross game chat. =D

  • @Sky71576 You're right there but I don;t think a lot of people are going to want to text chat while playing games. It be better if you could speak rather than type but at least they have something.

  • its over rated because you don't have it

  • Are you fucking joking no chat!!!  Fuck ps3 I was gonna get one till now no chat then I guess I'm getting a xbox

  • AAAAAAAAARRRRRRGGGGGGGGHHHHHHH­HHH

  • I think cross game chat would be fun if you had two friends playing Fallout

  • Greg u insane dog!!!!

  • It matters to me in games such as MW3 and BF3 where the in-game chat absolutely sucks so far. It would really improve game experience with a party chat system. I could use Skype, but Road Runner Internet is terrible and I'm afraid it may make me lag, even though I have a "fast" connection according to them.

  • cross game chat?? why the hell would i want that?

    i mute everyone in any game anyways.

  • I don't care much either, this is why we have Skype.

  • I think the awesome part is i never cared. I have an xbox too and I never use cross game chat anyway lol

  • So ps3 = playing solo 3 lmao and there was an idiot on here that said "oh what about when they make the ps4 it will have enough ram then" lmao!!! So wait you're telling me you're tired of the ps3 and already want the 4th one to come out hahah I've had my 360 since 06' and it's only getting better

  • @iCEizGhost

    "06"

    I wander how many times it's got the red ring of death?

    At least PS3 can handle being left on pause.

  • Just because their "Slimmer" Ps3 wasn't built with enough RAM, doesn't mean they will NEVER do it for a Sony Gaming system. What if the PS4 (or whatever) happens to have enough RAM? Hello Sonychat. Then, there will be nothing for me to be jealous of Xbox.

  • Fucking miss my xbox... now I have a ps3.... piece of shit... because most of y friends have a ps3... But I cant talk with them all at the same time so what's the point...

  • It's about having friends or not... if You don't have that many friends buy a ps3...

  • I already got XGC on my Ps3, its call my cell phone. Best feature is, I can talk to someone who's playing on Ps3, 360, PC, or even if they're not gaming.

  • Can't you just use a phones on speaker?

  • yeah i never got why people argued over the damn things, but i can understand those that only have a ps3 or only a 360, if your used to one why change for the other, me i got both, so i switch between them, when i want to, ps3 is good for movies, i bought one mainly for god of war but i have invested in other games as well, but the 360 i bought first, and i;ve got all my attention on it cause of skyrim, and crossgame chatting is annoying as fuck when your playing skyrim, and they're playing mw3.

  • Skype...

  • I dont have a Xbox 360. wrong writing.

  • i'm not hating xbox 360 but can anybody tell me a game that doesnt include gore or blood. I dont xbox. i know PS3 has Little Big planet.

  • Cross-game chat is stupid, I listen to my mates shit all day and I just want to go home and play some video games. My mates keep trying to talk to me on Xbox live, so I constantly play my brothers Ps3. I even hate it when they text or message me to ask me what I'm up to, I mean it's quite obvious.

  • y do u guys fight over consoles seriously really mature...?

  • @ShyGuyXII Actually, if you had the attention span to read the entire post, you would notice that I said I was already pissed at Sony for putting my credit info at risk when they were hacked. I couldn't trust them after that. And I do have a PS3, never played a 360 before, but I am not a fanboy of either console. Now please, fuck off and die you stupid fucking fanboy.

  • That guy with grey hair IS SOO COOL FFV13 FOREVER!!! <3<3<3

  • honestly i hate cross game chat , i have both ps3 and xbox 360 , and i find it just annoying when i play a game alone and my friends try to talk to me , like i dont care i dont want to listen to you i want to listen to the diaolgue and sound effect etc, or when im in a party chat with 2-3 guys and they talk about something i dont give a damn about ...

  • @Kevfate sounds like you hate your friends.

  • @collapsingdude4926 not at all , if we play the same game its sweet , but hearing , hey look behind the bus because they play battlefield or something , and i play for example devil may cry , and they talk about bringing a chopper down, thats the kind of things i wont care about

  • @Kevfate sounds like something an anti-social person would say... oh wait

  • @Kevfate play offline

  • @Kevfate You can appear offline you idiot. You are complaining about a feature you can turn off, that is just pointless.

  • @sipper2136 and you are complaining about a comment that you dont even need to read, even more pointless ;)

  • @Kevfate I was just informing you of how your statement looked from my point of view, no complaints here.

  • @Kevfate I was harsh i just think that the feature is useful and there really is no point in trashing it when it is so easy to disable.

  • @sipper2136 oh but im not trashing it. I find it fun when example im on the dashboard or something , but in my opinion , i find it annoying when i play different games and people talk about random stuff. i know you can turn it off , and i actually never accept the invite for those anyway. I dont use the cross game chat , for me its useless so even if it doesnt go on ps3 i dont really care. Now other people might think differently and thats all good.

  • @Kevfate Sorry about calling you an idiot over the internet bro.

  • @sipper2136 Its all good buddy , there is no problem ! :)

  • i have and xbox 360 but who give a fuck about cross game chat?

  • my conclusion... ps3 sucks

  • The reason the majority of people play online is because you can play with friends or talk to friends. PS3 just caught off nearly half of the online experience.

  • @wannabeaballer41 I usually talk to them while we are playing the same game. Otherwise we are just in a party chat. Personally i wouldnt use it even if i had it, and even when i used to use XBL i didnt use it. It would be a nice extra PS3 feature, but it hardly "caught off nearly half of the online experience".

  • @VINCEJisSONiCtheMC2.I have XBL and most of my friends own Mw3. I decided I would just wait for other games coming out like Metal Gear Solid Rising. I already feel left out of the bunch when I'm not playing with them but at least I can talk to them while playing games like fallout new vegas.

  • well i have an imac right next to my ps3, so i just use skype lol

  • that is why we have skype on a pc!!! :)

  • This makes me just wanna cry and throw my Playstation out the window.

  • Xbox has more RAM than the PS3? WUT?

  • alright if Razer Venoms new laptop can run minecraft and skype at the same time then why cant the ps3 i mean really have you looked at the laptop the thing is freaking tini as helllll but it works so wtf

  • This is stupid as hell, they knew before the fucking console came out that it wasn't going to have enough ram to manage cross game chat. They didn't tell anyone, they just teased that it was coming. Fuck Sony, I am done with that company. Will be going Xbox next gen. They showed how week they actually are. Not to mention them putting my credit info at risk earlier this year.

  • What a bunch of scrubs... you know you want to cross chat! If your in a party and you don't want to hear your friends blabbing then its called the mute button... Or simply don't make a party... I rather be on a party with my friends then be with a bunch of little kids playing call of duty yelling at the mics. I use Xbox party chats more than my phone.

  • wtf whats that a lightshaber or the dislike bar?!?!?!?!?

  • OH NO, there is no cross game chat, I now have to sell my PS3.

  • yay1 this is wried i got in ireland

  • o.O at the ending of this video

  • Dial-up is free too: Shitty arguement.

  • and they supposedly said that ps3 had alot of power......LIES!

  • hey i can surf the web on my ps3.......

  • ok the main reason i play my xbox 360 more than my ps3 is because cross game chat. I love being able to play through a game and talk to friends. I just mute my headset and turn it down on cutscenes, so i completely disagree with you ign doods.

  • @TRS158 thats the only good thing about xbox lol

  • why do people care?

  • Solution: Get an XBOX.

  • @xBookerT not over crossgame chat fuck that

  • at least voice messages please!

  • How can a feature die? Am I the only one here that is confused?

  • wait, the RAM cant handle it? yet PS3 is a more powerful machine that xbox? wtf

  • @HaveNoFearTomIsHere I'm gonna guess they just dont want to spend money for us :(

  • at least online is FREE

  • @sickdog2010 If you can afford internet you can afford the alternative which IS worth the few bucks per month.

  • @sickdog2010 at least xbox live didnt go down 4 about a month lol. I pay 4 quality...

  • @delta1o1 u pay to play with little kids

  • @delta1o1 xbox live never did go down. you have no idea do you?

  • @sickdog2010 So what? Xbox LIVE costs 50$ for a year. You can't even buy a new game with 50 bucks... I like to chat with my friends while playing other games. Limiting the chatting capabilities only to a certain game that supports it is bullshit.

  • @sickdog2010 Oh no! £5 a month! How expensive!

  • @CrazyBunnyPictures times that by 12 and you get £60 per year, just for online aswell!

  • lol at the top comments trying to justify the lack of cross chat @Kevfate you do not need to accept the party invites or you can appear offline if you do not want any party invites at all

  • @dineshn lol he's not justifying it. He's basically saying its a feature some people like but some people wont. I agree with him, I have an xbox well and i still have no use for the feature so why the hell would i want it on my ps3? Its not bad per say, just a personal opinion. If some people feel they need cross party chat that bad, then by all means get a 36o. If you dont, just get a ps3/

  • what a load of bf of course the ps3 can do it

  • Comment removed

  • IGN, you guys are fucking retarded.

  • Sony Fanboy: LOLZ EYE GOTZ A FOHN HERPDERP OLOLOLLOLOLOLOLOLO

  • I want cross game chat cuz my friend can't afford mw3 so he plays mw2 n I have to message him n it's annoying

  • LOL! The vita has more ram than the ps3 what the hell

  • @BeeAyyeee

    the PS Vita has a quad core processor

  • @BeeAyyeee reason: ps3 made in 2006 Psvita 2012 6 year diffrence new technology

  • @TheUndefeatedLegend It doesnt have new technolgy, it just has more ram than the ps3 =L

  • @sean0196 more ram cause technology got better past these 6 years and its could do more

  • @TheUndefeatedLegend They have had 512mb of ram in computers since the 90s.

  • You console guys just need to go ahead and grow up and move on to the PC

  • @uutttg I would, but I'm not a faggot.

  • what the hell??? 1:39????

  • thumbs up if you want cross game chat because its stupid why we cant talk to each other when playing different games i want to play assassins creed while talk to somebody playing batman

  • I wish you immature little fucks can grow up.

  • You could Just use skype

  • Hmmm that thing I own what's it called ...... Oh yea A Phone

  • Iam hopping the next gen ps4 and xbox720 or what ever its called has more ram this time to stop simple limitation and to be able to hold more people online in a game

  • Is cross game chat really such a big deal? I mean, isn't that what phones are for?

  • I can understand not liking the fact that cross-game chat will never happen, but if I wanted to have a casual conversation with a friend while playing Skyrim or Batman, I will call them on my phone.

    Otherwise I'd just play online with them in the same game.

  • @daywalkers28 you would need the ram for an application LIKE skype

  • You want Cross Game chat? pick up your phone call your friend, stop complaining on the net like idiots. In actuality the PS3 can do Cross Game Chat, it's just the way the software and everything else takes up all the space.

  • Man do I love my Xbox Live Parties!

  • SONY SUCKS!!!

  • all u fucktard haters get a life

  • I rather have free online then have to pay for online Its not like i cant chat with my friends on it and to me its no big deal Cross game chat < Free online.

  • Do people have phones?

  • @UBCCD Thank you someone who has sense and obviously a phone.

  • Suck it PS3'rs! guess i'll have me a party chat on me 360 then :D

  • probably why they can't do the cross music unless the game allows it.

  • Atleast put skype on the fucking ps3 i mean what good is it to us on the psp ?!?!

  • @eirho11 isn´t skype from microsoft now?

  • @eirho11 xbox is getting Skype

  • skype

  • @IGN guys ever if you don't care we do and have been waiting since 2009, I think this ram stuff have not that much to do with chat game chat if none at all as would't it be running off the Psn server like Xbox live cross game chat I just think it crap to cover something up as its a powerful console. We all need too call up Sony and demand that this be sorted out cause if they can run ps home they could run cross game chat....Psn haydn_16

  • I love how they say it's overated when it's just a push of a button to turn the party chat off, and play your game. And when you wanna talk to ppl or your friends start up a party, invite your firends, and just have a fun time.

  • Use a cell phone ?????? 

  • @xXi3PiKZziXx ya but you dont also hear them saying but I wouldnt pay 70 dollars for it

  • How can you say RIP if it never exicted?

  • @R4nd0mG4m1ng It only existed as a thought. Thought = Mental Object = Concept = etc. When a concept is never carried out, it can be justifiably considered "RIP".

  • i hate how when something bad happens to the ps3 these guys act like it's fine and they make excuses like i play single player

  • @xXi3PiKZziXx myabe they do lol, im more of a multiplayer though but im fine with this

  • They could run cross game chat with Cloud!

  • some one should tell these people that the voices are in the headset and the sound still comes from the tv

  • um... talk to someone while playing diff games?

    Just Use Skype Ya Tards!!

  • @ThatSafeGaurd then we're all fucked...

  • Guys there's this thing called Skype...

  • Playstation Conversation is the greatest thing this channel has come up with, just because of the chemistry between all these guys

    P.S: yeah I said "chemistry"

  • @palm270294 it means voice chat not chat room

  • Sony needs to change its motto cause it CANT do EVERYTHING

  • @TheRealYansii it was changed in september to long, live, play

  • 2011 dislikes. LOL

  • I have every system since atari days and the ps3 is the only system i ever need and use if i wanted to talk to some 1 i would pick up a phone and not a controller its a video game not a phone i only use my hset for cod

  • Full of BS

  • beyond

  • Well couldn't they adapt to the PS3's situation then? What about a RAM add on that plugs in via USB? What about using spare memory with a flash drive? What about possibly utilizing the PSP for cross game chat? Wish Sony could do something. Along with fixing the XMB. Is it just me, or does it take too long to load sometimes? Especially in-game.

  • whats up with all the dislikes? there just giving information you ungrateful bastards.

  • How could you rest that which was never alive

  • They should have a skype app on ps3, If I want to crossgame, i need to plug in to my laptop and use skype there.

  • if PS3 have cross game chatting, there won't be any differences with the ps3 and xbox

  • Who cares? If you're not paying for PSN, what can you expect? Maybe the playstation plus feature will get something good soon. I bought a ps3, and i'm not trading it for an xbox just because fanboys like to defend their console in the most idiotic ways.

  • I like how the ps3 doesn't have cross-game chat. I used to get tired of playing and having people come in just to talk

    

  • The ps3 has the same amount of ram as the 360 I'm pretty sure and the only games that probably use it all are the exclusives. Even if you did something like require all future games to have a few mb free for cross game chat and older games that use all of it are not supported it would still be fine. Software updates can make the underlying xmb more efficient while freeing up ram for a party chat system.

  • make your own consoles and stop complaining.

  • its fucking possible all right!! sony are just a bunch of lazy bastards that just want to focus on their exclusives, and piece of shit bundles that don't even have a theme console just a regular black ps3. If they fucking redesign the in game xmb to take less ram and load less icons they could squish in cross game chat it could be limited to 4 people but hey something is something. Also is a windowsXP pc that has 256MB of ram and can do background chatting. Why is it so hard to do on ps3?

  • @josevaladez100 xbox has 4 processors. Ps3 has 8 i think and only 4 are used. They can fit it in but they're lazy like you said.

  • @rabbitsReviil

    Are you an idiot? There is no home system, PS3, XBOX 360, or PC, that has more than 1 Prosessor. They all have 1.

  • @microsf121 Actually you can get dual processor motherboards for the pc.Giving you two processors. But maybe he got confused about core's on processors. He probably means how many core's. Not processors.

  • @cags11

    I said Home System.

    What game/program would you need two processors for?

    And both the PS3 and XBOX 360 only have 1 core anyways so he's still wrong.

  • @rabbitsReviil the xbox has 3 physical cores the processor is tri core the ps3 has 1 physical core and 8 SPE's the eight SPE is turn off to reduce console damage the 7 is use by the OS and the rest are availableto be use by DEVs

  • @josevaladez100 still i prefer exclusives way more

  • 3876123529687 yoo dis is my pro card number use it if u want discounts it works online 2 u cud write it down n go 2 gamestop n tell dem u 4got ur card n u will still get a discount

  • Sony needs to change its motto cause it CANT do EVERYTHING

  • I like how butthurt the ps3 fanboys are :) people like immortalixmonsta are defending their system

  • @Gr34ters Well to be fair, the ps3 is better in every way other than cross game chat. As a gaming platform it is far superior but this has been the one issue that xbox gamers have been using as a complaint for years. The only thing that sets xbox live apart from psn is cross game chat. Imo the store on ps3 is better, it has better unique games, the interface is quicker and more fluid and the network is open for companies like valve to use their own network integration.

  • @WeEatBrainz How is it better than the xbox in every other way? the gpu in the xbox 360 is superior, most multiplats look and run better on the xbox, the unified architecture, so no, the ps3 is not better in every way

  • @Gr34ters The gnu in the 360 is better but that means nothing if the developer actually designs with the ps3 in mind. This is why games like Battlefield 3, LA Noire, Portal 2 and Final Fantasy 13 look better on ps3. The better looking multi platform games only look better because the developers can't take advantage of the ps3's unique architecture. This is why Gears of War 3 still looks much worse than many ps3 exclusives.  I would ratherhave exclusives than slightly better looking multiplats
