I suppose the premise is that many people keep in touch across media such as games nowardays. As much as I'd love to continue couch gaming with the friends I grew up with; lives move on, people move off to University or new jobs elsewhere. Gaming habits don't change though, and being able to keep in touch through games is a good idea, in my opinion. If you're limited to only talking to each other when you're both in the same game, it's a bit of a drawback if one of you wants to play FIFA and the other wants to play LittleBigPlanet. I know this is a problem I often come across on PS3. We send messages, sure, but it's clunky and nowhere near as fun as simply talking to each other. At least, that's my take on it. PS3 doesn't have cross-game chat and I 'get by' without it, but I sure would prefer to have it given the option (which isn't an option on PS3 due to RAM or whatever). |
Its not game related and thus I have a cell phone for that. Its pointless. If I have a headset its for in-game communication... not random chatting with someone else. If that's the case, I call them or text them. Hell, I don' teven want to have a random convo with someone else when I'm playing a game... I'm playing a game and want to focus on that.
As long as I can chat with people in game, that is perfect. I never understood why people made it such an issue with PS3 vs 360.
