Call of Duty 3 online superior on Xbox 360 compared to PS3

Gamespot‘s review of Call Of Duty 3 for the PS3 mentions a couple of noticeable differences between the PS3 and Xbox 360 versions. The first difference: the PS3 has a choppy frame rate that makes the game a chore occasionally. But despite their name, Xbox360fanboy assumes that’s because of developer Treyarch being unfamiliar with the PS3.

So what is the big deal breaker between the two versions? The differences in online play are seemingly more fundamental. The PS3 version offers 24 players online, just like the Xbox 360 version. Unfortunately, only one person per PS3 can go online versus the Xbox 360 version’s four. Also, there is no ranked play available on the PS3, a feature that is standard on Xbox 360 thanks to TrueSkill.

Maybe we’ve all been spoiled by Xbox Live, but good gameplay should rule, so see this as a warning to not blindly pick one version of a multiplatform game over the other if you own multiple consoles. After all, as a gamer, the best demand you can make to a developer (aside from sending them an angry email) is to vote with your wallet, so they know to improve their next game or not bother at all. It’s why despite missing an online mode entirely, it’s no surprise to see people get excited about the new Wii COD3 gameplay.

Call Of Duty 3 kills any game anytime and plus xbox only allows highspeed so you know it will be fast and no lag…..Ps3 allows idiots with Dial up wtf lag lag lag…….. XBOX 360 RULEZ
Give It Time

People need to stop posting biased opinions as when they claim to be fair and objectionable ones. Stop bashing PS3 , when it has been out for only a few months, as where 360 has been out much longer and has had time for game developers to get used to it as a whole. Also, XBOX Live is a rip off, much like most microsoft software packages, microsofts motto “clone software, and stick consumers with proprietary versions and screw them over”. Give Play Station 3 some time, its barely out of the gate, compare it to where xbox was at the same time frame and not where xbox is and ps3 is, that is an unfair advantage for xbox. Microsoft consumers are sheep, unless u steel the software. IDIOTS, Stop comparing the two, ps3 just came out relatively speaking, and barely any of the great games are out, wait for Socom Confrontation and Socom 4, Socom beats any 3rd person shooter for single player and online, period.
P.S. Stop trying to post ur biased opinions as , “fair comparisons”, and maybe you wont get such a bad reputation. XBOX 360 sucks.
