Cross chat is a hardware and software issue. The PS3 cannot handle it because of their hardware, therefore, their online is already pretty dead on equal already. The PS4 they will have it on par so it really doesnt need to even be talked about. Third of all, Sony and Valve will most likely be working on continuing cross platform and any valve titles that were exclusive to the Xbox 360 will no longer maintain that level of exclusivity from the PS4. Left 4 Dead 3 PS4, just wait. Microsoft doesnt want to open themselves up to cross platforming, so they will be behind if they dont change their ways and Sony will be ahead is some respects.

Cross platforming has allready proven to be a dead end. MS tried it with some titles like Lost Planet Colonies, Shadowrun, Universe at War, etc. The PC gamers have an unfair advantage.

Sony and Valve changed that with Portal 2. Gabe Newell has been trying to get through to Microsoft but they seem ignorant to his cause.
|
what else?
|
Its called a new beginning. Before that Gabe Newell was talking a lot of crap about the PS3.
Watch, incase you missed gabes announcement at E3 last year.

Because of Sonys acceptance of the reality that online as a service needs to expand beyond a closed community, the PS3 (but more so the PS4) will excell.

Last year? That was 2 1/2 years ago. E3 2010. lol
What have we seen since? Jack.
Now they want their own console. Forget it, Valve moved on.
edit... hello? hello?

This is a sad argument, indeed. They are STILL working with Sony. They want to compete with them, but they seem determined that cross play is the best bet for everyone. Their console will basically be a projection of what Steam offers in a box in the living room on a console that can handle the majority of the games. The question that remains is how customizable the box will be. That is the burning question Steam has yet to answer, because I highly doubt they'll be supporting it like the big three support their consoles. They are just bringing PC gamig to the living room through your same account if you choose and saying last year was a typo, you act like jumping on a mistake will help what you're saying.

Nah. The whole Valve liking PS3 is just blowing smoke. It doesn't make up for Left 4 Dead 1/2, Orange Box, and doesn't compare to the efforts MS allready made into cross platform gaming. Like Half Life Episode 3, Valve just put PS3 plans in limbo.
This Steam Box might be the answer to the PC gamers having an unfair advantage if this steam box comes with a custom gamepad. But thats pure speculation offcourse.
|
Again, you must've completely ignored the fact that I've already told you once that MS doing that with other companies is not like them doing it with Valve. Microsoft has tried to make it into cross platform gaming without proper results. They need to open up their system more. It will have benefits.
Those arent the only issues...
