Well, the only riff raff my brother had so far while playing Ghostbusters online on the PS3 was one of two problems:

1. People don't always have headsets, so they sometimes go into a game not knowing what to do. This also proves to be a problem when you DO know what to do, and need to communicate to the people who are doing the opposite of what they should be doing.

2. Sometimes there are little kids. I mean, really young little kids. Young as in, and I am being completely honest when saying this, 5 years old. I can understand someone maybe sounding young, but having that high-pitched a voice, having that "W-for-R" replacement method, having that "sing-song" whininess, it just says "this player is five years old." Not always a problem, unless you're trying to kill things, and he's saying "down't kiww da pink wones, dey awe ouw fwiends..." when you're in an EXTERMINATION game mode.

Aside from that, nothing too major from what I saw of him playing. Then again, that was one game from their whole collection of maybe 30 or 40 multiplayer-intensive games.


Oh, and those jerks you get anywhere who try to kill you when you do better than them, despite it's a competitive-cooperative style game (you can't do well unless you work with others, who you're also competing against at the same time).

There are just as many jackasses on PSN as XBL. However, its not as bad on PSN because only a fraction of the people have mics.

It's actually a proven mathematical law that there is a ratio of assholes to non-assholes on any type of game server that exists independently of cost of using the server. If I remember right, the formula goes something along these lines:

(X+3ⁿ)/(2π+7)±(3℮¹-0.5X)∫(7YX/3πr²√(15))=as²H0.13

where X is the number of total subscribers, and Y is the maximum level cap.

I could be a tad wrong, but that should be it.

Boy, you must be missing out on PSN. I always feel so privileged to play with so many ignorant, homophobic, racists whenever I log onto Xbox Live.

Although I guess it does make victory that much sweeter.

Really? Everyone I know who has gotten the update like this hasn't been banned.
Lol some even have a modded avatar and hacked achievements like mine and their still not banned even after having gotten this update like this.
I haven't actually tried this yet. I'll probably do it later today.

Saying Xbox Live is worse than PSN because more asshole pick on you there than they do on PSN isn't a good enough reason.
