it is all about xbox live -
XBL is better online wise but since I have a PS3 now I might as well put the PSN to work! I find the lag on MW2 tolerable. Nova, is your internet connection wireless or are you hardwired? I ran wirelessly for a while but I found it would drop connection here and there so I just connected the ethernet cable and now it never drops connection and it seems or feels at least to me that the connection is faster.WTS 10/22 Lasermax laser CHEAP!!!Comment

Another vote for modern warfare 2. Its a pretty good game and you wont experience the downtime your talking about. At any given time there are 200k+ people online.
Socom sucks.Comment

If you can hardwire it, the wifi inside the ps3 is really crappy compared to any modern wifi device. I get my internet from a neighbor mine is so slow to do anything online, it took over 24hrs to download Training day in hd, netflix takes forever to load, and trying to play something like mw2 is just ridiculous. (underdeveloped game with no dedicated servers with a **** ton of traffic is a nightmare with a perfect connection)Comment

Myself and all my friends play wirelessly with the ps3. I have never experienced a disconnection that resulted from the ps3's wireless card. And my friends don't experience any problems with theirs either. Maybe your guys internet and/or wireless router just suck.Comment

I had confrontation and that **** sucks. MW2 is way faster paced, pick that up and get ready for black ops in Nov.Jackandblood on shotguns:As I understand it, semi is geared more towards sporting. Then again, according to counter strike, it's imperative to put 3 quick into center of mass. Also from what i hear you dont want a pump shotgun for home defense as the pumping sound is "cool" and will actually attract more thugs. Like starting a party up in here.Comment

Do a connection test with wireless and look at the speed results and then hardwire it and look at the results, usually hardwired it about twice as fast on mine (when I have internet) it really helps during game play with something like mw2, like when you and someone both walk into a room and both fire at each other usually the kill goes to the faster connection scratch that it will always go to the faster connection because even if you both pull the trigger at the same time it will register the faster connection first and your dead by the time the game sees that your trying to shoot.
The good thing about it other than it being free is on xbl there is a lot of censorship they can ban your xbox account ps3 there is nothing like thatLast edited by windrider; 07-01-2010, 8:56 PM.Comment

I dont like the XBL vs ps network thing. I've had PS3 and havent lost service or had any complaints and its free. I ended up hardwiring mine cause I could but it did seem to get better. Your internet will make a huge difference in game play but as much as game quality, I believe someone here is selling MW2 in the market place for like 30 bucks.Jackandblood on shotguns:As I understand it, semi is geared more towards sporting.

I've played RE5, COD WAW, and Battlefield BC on PS3 just fine. I'm on wireless and at times, I have had issues with COD, but the other 2 games run fine.
I have MW2 for 360.Mag Lite (3 cell w/LED)

SOCOM 4 with the Move controller is going to really make you guys happy. I kinda set a record at E3, at least for the particular guy who was talking me through the hands-on demo. Given my place of employment, he thought I'd played an early copy or at least used a Move before. No - "Actually, it's just because I know how to use real guns. This is a bit more intuitive for me."
Confrontation isn't my favorite title, anyway. You might want to try MAG... although my personal favorite online title is Resistance 2 in co-op mode. Nothing like wiping out hundreds of alien zombies with an 8-man squad actually playing WITH you, instead of against you!Primary author of gunwiki.net - 'like' it on Facebook at http://www.facebook.com/#!/pages/Gunwiki/242578512591 to see whenever new content gets added!Comment
