-The Playstation 3 has terrible online:  I have to say, I took Call of Duty:  Black Ops online with my PS3 quite a bit in the last few months, and for the most part, the experience was pretty close to identical to the Xbox 360 version.  Aside from Cross Game Chat, the PSN matches Xbox Live pretty much feature for feature in its current form.  I'm sure both services will, for lack of a better phrase, "step their game up" in the future but, if it's so hard to imagine what new features they can add, maybe those features are more luxury than neccessity.....Bottom line, when it comes to getting a group of friends online and playing a game, the PS3 does it quickly and easily for free.

In the summer of 2008 you couldn't access the XMB while in game which meant you if you got a message you would have to quit the game to look at it. Also trophies were introduced at this time and it took a while for them to be in all new games.

In the summer of 2009 chat rooms were introduced which was a big step up from sending messages.

Really there were times when the PS3 had terrible online, only those days are over. It's the same as the 'PS3 has no games' or 'All 360s get RROD' which took years to go away when they were pretty much fixed.
