E4G: Just think about it, Sony has taken a long time to implement a feature such as cross game chat on the PlayStation 3.
With over 5144 games on the PS3, it is easy to miss out on some great games. Here are some of the best unknown games on the PS3.
I remember Stranglehold! One of the first DLC packs of its time. A bit expensive, but cheap by today’s standards.
Another PS3 hidden gems list, and yet again Time Crisis 4 and Time Crisis Razin' Storm get snubbed. Such fun games, that shouldn't be forgotten. If only we got a home port of Time Crisis 5: Mastermind Edition.
While some video games overwhelm you with sheer scale, titles like Asura's Wrath and Doom Eternal make you the boss player right upfront.
Wolfenstein: The New Order turns ten years old today, so we decided to play it again and discovered just how much of an extinct kind of game it is.
It's an outstanding game and so was The Old Blood. Also a lost era of gaming. Interesting, I received a physical copy of The Old Blood 9 years ago today from Poland. It was digital only in North America initially upon release so I had to import.
So am Im the only one who doesn't care about cross game chat. It would seriously be distracting if Im talking to someone while im trying to play a game!
To be honest, it would be one nice feature to have althought if I remember correctly MS pattented something like this...can't remember exactly what it was about lol ^_^
People who comment against cross-game chat because of the distraction it causes make a legitimate point. I wouldn't want someone to yell out BOOM headset really loud, while they are playing Killzone and I'm trying to beat Flower. But, what I'd use cross-game chat for is not for campaigns of different games but their multiplayer components. It's just easier for a group of friends to communicate without all of them having to boot up a game. Someone may want to jump into BC2 a round or two after, or may be waiting for a spot in our squad. And if anybody gets booted out of a lobby, its easy to communicate and bring them back in.
Put Skype on the ps3 and have all the cross game chat, sex talk, circle jerk, tupperware talk and trade recipes you want.
It will not be implement this way because its a memory footprint issue. Stupid article.
