Though its a useful feature, if you experienced it on the 360 you would know that. I can remember countless times playing tekken while another friend played call of duty and we talked the entire time just fun and a great feature.

I have experienced it and i still think its useless. Ive spoken to friends playing different games since the PS1 era, its called a phone, i hear you can get one for cheap

A phone? who the fuc 5 ways? and even if its just 2 people a mic is much better than a phone your hands are free to use your controller this way. and just because you think its useless doesnt mean alot of other people do.

i really don't understand why so much people wanna talk to others when playing a video game... =_=

For online games it's good to communicate and joke around or brag about a great kill.

In singleplayer games it's nice to have a little discussion as long as it doesn't break the immersion. Plus it's a great alternative to a telephone, it's a shame PS3 doesn't have many mics and cross game chat, most of my friends are on PSN.


I know 3 people all with ps3s and they all want cross game chat.

 I even patronized them by saying, is it really that big of a deal?

And they all said YES, they wanted cross game chat. 

I use it all the time on xbox live. You can mute players you don't wanna hear and it helps with teamwork. 

I don't have an unlimited cell phone plan so calling people by phone wouldn't work for me

you can mute players on psn btw... but i'm curious how does talking to people playing different games than you help with team work for people presumably playing the same game you are?

You can mute people on PSN, but can you mute them all but your friends? If you're in a party chat on XBL, you don't have to worry about blocking all the random people that do not take part in your party. This really helps with the teamwork, and also allows you to have better sound quality all the time, since you're not using the game chat.

Anyway, there's some people saying even if they had this option, they would never use it. That is BS.
You have to be really rude, or simple have nobody to talk with to deny the use of this feature. I have made some friends on the internet (Forums mainly). Some, people who i won't ever meet in reality or call with my phone. And i usually have nice conversations about games and other stuff with them on Live.

Why do this happen? Because it's the easiest way to communicate with that person (or that group of people) while i'm playing Xbox. Nobody, EVER, is forced to talk if he or she don't want to. If that person just want to play a video-game anb be quiet, it simply leave the party or just don't join.

" but can you mute them all but your friends?" yes

don't get me wrong here... i'm not bashing people who find value in this feature, i'm just saying that personally for me its not worth $60 and with my post i was just questioning how talking to people playing other games benefits teamwork ( as pizzaface said )

 

Thank you. But i meant to ask if you can mute them all at the same time and even have the ones who join the game latter muted.

Anyway, i understand what you mean. And yes, it is kind of pointless. Usually when everybody's playing a game that use teamwork (like CoD), and there's someone who isn't playing, that player just leave or stay quiet.

My best experience with CGC was while playing Blazblue CS (a mini tournment). People could get in the party, and be in talk even before conecting to the network, others could just stop playing the game and be updated about who wins or lose a match. Yeah, that may be kind of useless to you, but if you like to talk with that group of people, you will stay there. At least i usually stay.

Also, if your GF by accident is a gamer and play Xbox 360 online (which is almost impossible!!1!), it's guaranteed that you can make everyone jealous in your party. She probably just have coking mama though, so she can't play CoD with you. Just leave her in the party to disrupt the other players concentration. 

That's the best reason ever for cgc.

they have headsets for phone for one, and two i have no desire at all to talk to that much people if im playing a game. I know your gonna say "but what if your playing COD? YOu cant use both?" Sure but i wouldnt be talking to anyone but my teammates playing COD. If im playing singler player my headset wont be connected to my PS3 anyway. And just cause you think its useful doesnt mean alot of people think it is.

I agree with you there and it goes both ways.

Fuck that, I want to play my PS2 games on my PS3. I don't know anybody with a PS3 that's ever complained about not having cross game chat.



I am the Playstation Avenger.

of course, look,my problem here is that the people who like CGC are trying to cram it down other people's throat. Saying things like "people who dont like CGC or full of BS and lying" that is immature and ignorant. Not neccesarily you, people are not going to like the things you do. Get over it

Oh well yea those types of people are idiots and I agree with you on that.

The idea of party chat is awesome and I wish the PS3 had it, this is somewhat different from cross game chat imo. When a chat (which exists on 360 but not on PS3) would be nice is when you first get on your ps3 and see there is a party of your other friends. You can hop onto the chat and say,"yo how much longer are you going to be playing?, then continue talking while loading the game up.

When a group of you want to discuss which game to play online, a chat is nice to have which remains constant while everyone is starting the selected game. This would be a nice feature to have on PS3 and 360 does it well.

naming it cross game chat implies that people must be playing other games while chatting, which is kinda dumb, that is no different from a phone call.

The PS3 will never have this feature due to the RAM. It was never designed to do so. The PS4 , (and as we have seen with the vita) will do this beautifully.
