Ever since the Xbox 360 introduced cross-game chat to its Xbox Live users, enabling them to party up with and chat with players in other games, PlayStation 3 fans have wondered when Sony would implement such a feature on the PSN. As it turns out, the reason we've been waiting so long for this feature, is because the PS3 simply cannot do it. There are memory restrictions in place that would make it impossible Shuhei Yoshida said.

A RAM usage feature of the console prevents a cross-game chat feature, Yoshida You must login or register to view this content..

Quote: "Once a game gets RAM we never give it back," he said. "It's not possible to retrofit something like that after the fact...The game has to use its own memory to do in-game voice chat. There's always voice chat in the game. But it's part of a game feature. It's not part of an OS feature. That's the reason in terms of the ability to have voice chat across different games."

So what do you have to say about this? Leave some feedback and your opinion's in a post below! Hopefully they will bring this feature into the Ps4 though.

i hope the ps4 has it that was one thing that is better about xbox the both consoles have things bad and things good
like ps3 has ps+ which earns you discount and some free things,xbox has cross game chat and ps3 dont
but the thing i dont like about xbox is that it uses microsoft points instead of money becuase you dont really know how much your getting worth of money say a DLC was 900 microsoft points you dont really know how much that is worth
so it could be over charging you if you thing about it

That doesnt mean that it will NEVER get it. He never said that it would NEVER happen. It will at some point.
