Resistance doesn't even use your general PSN friends list; it has its own. That fucking sucks. This is precisely the way in which PSN's non-uniform system limits it.

O.o. Halo 3 doesn't have clan support?

(<---- if true)

Oh, it's true.

Yeah the Resistance buddy list is kinda meh, but blargh you can also send messages over Resistance and even access your Friends list in the lobby.

It'd be better if we could access all that by just pressing the PlayStation button but we can't... yet.

ANYWAY... GI just gave CoD4 perfect 10s across all formats, making NO distinction between PS3 and 360 versions. Nice to know it's getting good reviews, but I don't think it's enough to pull me (or my friends) away from Halo 3, even though I was a big fan of CoD 1 & 2. i just can't get into the realistic stuff quite as much. It's gotta be sci-fi/fantasy to float my boat

. So I'm looking forward to Mass Effect and Assassin's Creed over anything else. I'll pick up CoD4 after I beat those two.

I'm wondering why so many new games these days are so short 5-8 hours. That last CoD game took me a few days of heavy playing to finish from what I remember.

True dat. I got to the very end of 2 but never went back to finish (need to do that someday...). But I do remember it being pretty long. I spent countless hours on the original CoD on PC, that was the best MP of it's day. Good times.

But yeah, that is a disturbing trend. I was thrilled to hear that Mass Effect was 20 to 30 hrs long if I remember correctly, which used to be considered short for an RPG. But then again, I think I had 78 hrs on Oblivion when I finally retired it, and I didn't even get to the shivering Isles expansion. I loved that game.

Its all about cost. It costs so much to make those sweet graphics everyone wants they can't afford to spend the money to make a whole lot of them.

well to be fair, these games are getting better and more robust MP games than ever before on consoles.

So, it sort of balances it out I guess.

Doesn't really matter for me, cod4 will be my main shooter MP for awhile

and I'll have uncharted/masseffect/AssassinsCreed to fill my SP needs
