Gaming Blend "The standard of baseline shamelessness and poor marketing decisions will always be Capcom. They set a new low with advertising features for Street Fighter X Tekken that weren't there, and unfortunately that's not going away anytime soon. Sadly, Sony tried pulling a Capcom with PlayStation Plus members by advertising cross game chat in a new promotion for PS Plus, even though the PS3 can't utilize cross-game chat due to RAM limitations."

advertise.
If I was this blogger I probably wouldve went a different route and said "Cross game chat possibly coming to ps3" which probably wouldve generated just as much heat if not more.
But seeing that this .. blogger considered this an advertisement im not too shocked that he didnt come to that conclusion.Instead stupid knows negative news is hot news.
Other than that im looking forward to what PR is going to say about this?
Most probably not because that feature is free on Vita.
Cross-game chat was mentioned once before like this, before PS+ went on sale. It popped up somewhere listed as a feature, and Sony took it down and said it wasn't happening. My guess is that cross-game chat was the plan at one time but it was ditched for whatever reason, and that this text is just an early version of the PS+ description that someone cut and pasted without going over.
No, not really. The PS Vita has cross game chat. I don't see why this would be any different with the inevitable PS4.

" PS3 can't utilize cross-game chat due to RAM limitations"
lol, complete non sens..

Really?
This is well known and admitted by Sony executives.

It's not RAM limitations that prevents cross game chat from happening. It's the fact that the PS3 is late into its cycle, and games that released use the full RAM on PS3 (e.g. they weren't built to accommodate the extra memory Cross Game Chat would take).
Which means exactly the same.
If the whole discussion is about adding cross game chat (a feature that's used while playing a game as the name imply) obviously we're considering how much RAM is left free while playing to run the feature. There's none. Hence the RAM is the limitation.
Change your name to Captain Obvious.
Move on this issue has been posted again and again and mistakes like these shouldn't be happening
Sony really needs to change its business practices if they want to change their fortunes around.
WTF? Dont you mean that 360 Fans are coming to ps3 due to lack of 360 exclusives.
Xbox fans going over to PS? What? The 360 was the best selling console in 2011 and so far in 2012. Sony used to have a majority share of the market, now they have the smallest. Does that sound like keeping fans to you?
Yeah and the 3 biggest exclusives releasing the the near future are coming out on 360 (halo, gears and forza) so where is this "lack of". Just because you Sony fanatics keep claiming there are no 360 games, doesn't make it so.
Keep playing your free service and great exclusives, from a company that is dying. Sony will need to charge nex gen, hands down. If not then I think that the next Sony system could be the last.
Edit... CHANGE not charge
"Little Billy said that he wants an X-Box cause it has cross game chat, but this Playstation Plus thing gives him cross game chat on the PS3! *Buys a PS3*"
"WHAT DO YOU MEAN IT DOESNT HAVE CROSS GAME CHAT IT SAYS IT RIGHT HERE?"
Even though the chances of that happening are pretty slim, i could easily go buy a PS3 right now and sue based off of that logic.
They need to fix this ASAP
@tenton
Stop acting like such a child.
ExCest has 10 disagrees but nobody comments why they disagree.
ugaydawg has 59 agrees and 11 disagrees, but what he said was factually wrong (console games run better than PC games? Maybe Dark Souls) and had nothing backing it up.
...This site is just runnnnnnnnnn by fanboys. Like worse than ever. Haha k maybe not but still
So yeah, there are more 2001 references where that came from.
And the 12 GB PS3 announcement following the new Xbox 360 bundle announcement showed pretty much how the N4G community is, totally proved it.
It's pathetic and I loath having to rub shoulders with them. Anything negative and they come flocking in like sheep bleating the same tedious, hackneyed platitudes.
edit: A link to that thread would be handy my friend. How about you do that and we can see exactly what I wrote which warranted that comment... :)
You are a child, son.
"ahha gribble, you just perceive anything that isnt praising sony as "anti-sony."
Thats the thing, you are such fanboys you cant even accept legitimate criticism or real facts without calling it "anti-sony."
I bet you think an article about the vita doing badly is "anti-sony" right? Too bad its true and the thing is flopping while they sit by and watch. I have one so I know it hasnt been supported half as much as they need too. "
And this is exactly what I feel from this website.
'Could you perhaps explain to me, if it's the home of Sony fanboys, why the majority of news on here is anti Sony? Are you suggesting that those Sony fanboys are responsible for all that negativity? Or are you a little tightly strung?
The proof is here to see quite clearly. Even in a thread about the 360 people like you still can't help but rag on Sony and their fans.'
This was a response to a 360 fanboys that suggested this forum is over run by Sony fanboys and I pointed out the above. I didn't feel the need to respond in the same way I don't feel the need to swat away a fly at a picnic
Here is the article
http://n4g.com/news/1081775...
haha funny you say your comment "Which was a response to even more 360 fanboy nonsense" when the whole little battle between you and the guy above my comment started when a PS3 fanboy came into the 360 news with a moron comment.
fact is sony fanboys on this site take even real criticisms and truths as "anti sony" and cry about it constantly.
you just did it in this comment even. this is what I hear from your comemnt: "Boo hoo the four 360 fanboys that are as big a fanboys as me and the 100 other raging ps3 fanboys on this site are hurting my feelings. I hate them and they are big meanies. You are a poop head jerk face waaaa waaaaa."
I have all PS and xboxs, but I wonder why you went onto a 360 article at all if yuo hate 360 owners so much. I also noticed you commented under another raging ps3 comment(in a 360 article) and tried to come off as the victims in an anti sony conspiracy.
I think the new PS3 bundle is a bit stupid.. to an extent, 12GB? Hope MGS4 is the only game they plan on buying.. If it's cheap however, I suppose it'll be lovely for those who don't have as much money or want a new PS3 to update the Hard drive or whatever..
The thing is N4G has many, many PS3 users. That's a fact.. I'm one of them, but I also seem to find a majority of the PS3 fans are much more.. mature? Not trying to be a douche, But your name alone throws away any respect anybody would give to you on here buddy.
New account, New name, Same attitude, Same guy.
Then we'll have a proper adult conversation :)
Laters!

Things like these really take the fire away from your comment.
Time Warner owns the rights to its image. They even get paid a little bit for each mask that's sold.
I know it's from a movie, I'm not dumb, but it was used a lot for the Anonymous crap when hacking PSN was cool.

Now ask yourself, would he have said the same thing in a Playstation Move article? Very doubtful.
If this is false advertising then comment on it. Instead people like GribbleGrunger look like Sony fanboys because they can never actually discuss the topic at hand. Instead they deflect because for some odd reason they don't think negativity is part of improving things.
Sony put themselves into this situation long ago with Cross-game chat. The media and fans asked years ago and never got an answer. Then they hinted it would be a feature in PSN+ that never came. It wasn;t until Vita came out that they announced they can't do it on the PS3. Mainly because they wanted to advertise the feature on Vita but the only way they could is to explain it wasn't coming to the PS3.
I own a PS3, i know what it does well and what it struggles with, so why are so many people bothered so much about anything negative? Stop using lotion on your skin. If you had thick skin these topics wouldn't be a problem.

There is over double the amount of activity on the PS3 forums than the other 4 main game forums COMBINED. So yes, as far as the members it seems to favor more PS3 owners.
As for the negative media it's all around. I've seen article after article that's negative towards the Wii U. It's a common theme in journalism because they know negative topics get more hits.
You better bubble me too though monkey >:( Don't screw me over on this. lol >_<
Are we on the same page here or did you really forget the cloud storage and automatic update system? ;)
I also expect no less than 8 gigs of RAM on PS4.
Although, I'm expecting a slightly lower priced graphics card combined with an APU to effectually produce 4k@ 30-60fps.
I hope they can pull it off, cause I am still amazed by graphics this gen, and the WiiU doesn't look like the leap I want to take.
But, damn...Either this gen is going to drag(2-3 years till release), or next gen is going to be expensive as hell(like $700-800).
I'm thinking holiday 2014 for a 4k console at $500 for the base model.
What's stopping some guy from buying a card, and telling his friend to get one too because they can cross game chat.
Funny how people roll up into a defensive shell, and can't admit they screwed up. Same goes for EA, ACTI, MICROSOFT, NINETENDO etc.
No point in blaming the author (to the people above), as he is standing up for our general rights. The right to not be screwed over, plain and simple.
Wonder if he would be copping the same criticism if this were an EA, acti or Microsoft fault?? I think not.
4+ way calling while playing multiplayer = profit.
Really, sony fans give the worst excuses to defend something that doesn't even need to be defended, you get what you pay for. Ps3's low Ram is what you paid for. Not to mention to giant list of exclusives on the Ps3 which easily outways the cross chat.
Really anyone that tries to downplay Cross chat is an idiot in my eye's. It's a great feature which neither of the competing consoles have.
i would be mad that standard users didnt get it free..
or it would be like paying for GOLD membership to play online
Enjoy your free agrees.
Sony lies, SDF comes to rescue.
You get the same amount of hits, less negative comments (still some because there will be people that have to show "dey are shmart" and prove you wrong), and an overall positive reflection on the site. Probably because a negative headline ticking off a few fanboys is guaranteed hits and will be a lot faster?
They can't claim you get blah blah blah and then not provide it.
If they do it is false advertising.
I love the sheer amount of you who are basically going oh it's the end of the life cycle it doesn't matter.
That's a bad thing.
They never did one of the easiest things to do in gaming now. They wouldn't even know to design new software it already exists. They could easily implement it. They simply refuse to.
THAT IS BAD.
Now hurry along with you're disagrees and -bubbles.
You probably hit it the second you read the first line of my post.
Any sources to back up your claims?
that's pretty much cross game chat right there :) or u could just get a 360
