@squill: I wasn't talking XBox vs PS2 in its prime, I was talking 360 against late PS2 when PS3 was already on the way, which was easier for 360 than it will be for a new console vs PS3.  Period.  Laughing puking comment impotently aside.

MMOs can be done on PS3, as there's mouse/keyboard support and devs get to pic how they want to implement online stuff over PSN.

Noone cares about mouse/kb support on the PS3. I have a HTPC and I use a KB on my lap quite often and its a complete PITA. The Xbox 360 vs PS2 was an unfair comparison against the Xbox 360. The PS2 had about a million games coming out whilst the Xbox 360 was starting from zero and the PS2 was a LOT cheaper as well. The PS3 as a console is JUST one of three, Sony has jack all in the way of enticing 1st party games outside of GT and its the weakest of the three. 

MMOs can be done on the PS3, but they cannot be done well. Thats the important difference. 220MB of sysem memory is a pittance compared to the ram used by most MMO games.



Tease.
