Cross game chat, a feature Xbox 360 owners have enjoyed for years, and one PS3 fans can’t wait to experience on PSN. Thing is, in order to experience the goodness, you might have to pay for it.
In the latest issue of PTOM, there’s a thread about PlayStation 3’s “Next Tech”, and in it, slew of details were divulged concerning PSN.
After talking about the possible 3D offerings in 2010, the mag delves into cross-game chat.
“Aside from the 3D goodness, cross-game party chat is the obvious “next big feature,” even though it might be restricted to paid [PSN] subscribers.”
Earlier in the same thread speaking about motion controls, the writer said this:
“Sony’s current service is one of the PS3’s best features, so we’d begrudgingly welcome a revamped PSN with extra subscriber functionality, like cross-game-chat and exclusive PSN downloads.”


I know alot of people are dying for Cross Game chat, and it really should've been implemented a long time ago. Personally I think making people pay for it is a poor decision by Sony since it's such a basic feature. Atleast it's definitely going to happen one way or another though. What do you guys think about this?

If we had to pay it would be pointless because only 5 of my friends would have it then.

OMG why does xbox get better online features than ps3, just cuz they pay for their online separately. PS3 is more expensive and that extra cost must include for online shouldn't it? Retarded people. I want cross gaming with xbox and ps3 players. Cuz technically PS3 pays for online just like Xbox. Say ps3 pays in advance a couple hundered for a ps3 life time deal where as xbox pays montly so if they might pay more if their Xbox is luicky enough to last as long as a PS3. Bitch ass MONEY DOUCHE GAME GUYS

1 more thing, the ps3 has a higher price because it has the newest technology (blur ray) which is pretty expensive, go look up blu ray player prices and u will understand

PS3 technically isn't more expensive, for all the stock stuff it comes with that help it maintain its stability. Xbox costs more to get a higher chance of no Red ring.

yeah i don't like this whole paying for it thing. We don't need sony turning into microsoft ...

they will dissapoint alot of people, even though people will pay for it. It's a pretty basic feature that should of been free and implimented along time ago

If there is paid PSN IT WILL BE OPTIONAL. Sony know this is pretty much their number 1 marketing opportunity
