think of it this way, instead of paying whatever free for XBL, i could be eating lunch, taking my family out for dinner, or going to the movies with that money, with PSN i dont need to worry about a fee that'll pop outta know-where. im sure XBL is good, but its not for those who dont want or need to recklessly spend extra money. Free online is the one thing i have to admit Sony did 100% right this gen.

I strongly disagree with this...beacuse of 1 reason.
Matchmaking with similarly ranked people.
Most of the best games that have matchmaking integrate a system where you won't get your ass handed to you every time you log in. Street Fighter 4, Halo 3, COD, Gears...etc. They will match you with people with similar stats as yours...or atleast try.
Since PSN is free, nothing stops a player that is ranked higher in a game from creative a new account every month and owning people that are jsut learning to play the game. Happens on xbox 360 despite people having to pay for their accounts...I can imagine how bad this is on PS3.

It's not to bad to be honest, i should know, right now im playing Tekken 6 and i gotta say the ranking system is pretty decent on PSN, i've only face like 3 out of 50 people who really, REALLY kicked my ass, all the others were even matchs.
|
Maybe not many people haven't discovered they can do this yet but its possible to cheat like that. Game like Tekken 6 just came out so most of the cheaters still did not master to bother creating a new account :)
On 360 when playing halo 3 it pisses me right off. The game has been out for over 2 years and it blows when this clan with 100 matches (and like 99 wins) fights against you and rapes you. They are ranked very low since they created a new account but have been playing the game for years.
A game that may have a problem like this oon ps3 would be call of duty 4 I imagine...
|
LOL!!! 99 wins!? okay i get what your saying then, and yeah CoD4 would be a good example, but i know of a better one WarHawk... they've done that ALOT in WarHawk, so i agree with you on that point, it is highly enraging lulz but what can ya do eh? though i didn't play WarHawk long enough to judge if its a big an issue as you claim it to be sooo.. 
As for Tekken 6, or any other fighting game for that matter on both 360 and PS3, why would they bother to do that? i mean damn, pride much? i hate spammers btw... -.-
|
Yeah fighting games are different I guess, but I don't think 12 year old kids that play FPS games have much pride...lol. But I can't blame them as its fun completely destroying someone that is not a on the same skill level. Cowardly but fun...
Infact my freind was doing that on Halo 3 as he woudl buy the 1 month trial cards of ebay and create a new halo account every month. I loved playing doubles with him as his low ranking would ensure we don't get anyone tough to play.

lol true, but wheres the challange? thats the only way you'll get better, in any game. :) to be the best you gotta go up against the best in my book.
