You can already access Facebook easily from the web browser (and, ya know, a fucking computer), and it would be nice to not have the UI even more cluttered than the last update.
If anything, I'd like to see a reduction in the amount of crap on the XMB. #playstation3

U are trying to say that paying the 50 dollars a year somehow protects u from this when it clearly hasn't and most likely never will...
I use to pay for live so im not attacking you, its just that comment made no sense.
edit: seriously, i have no problem with you, lol. You should just see some one the trolls arround here...
its like you went to a Catholic church and said that Jesus isn't real...lol

I thought you were just pointing out the obvious revelation most of us had, and wishing those afflicted well. #modernwarfare2

I need only remind people of the Christmas when CoD4 came out when Live was down for several days in a row to make my point. I don't need to say anything else. #modernwarfare2

and it depresses me sony doesnt do anything about it, i love my ps3, but for multiplatgames, i always go to xbox because its almost guaranteed to have the dlc first, or just have better support.
sony cant fix things as fast because its third parties do all the work, were ms does all their own work, they can easily backtrack problems. #modernwarfare2

My point is that Xbox Live is down and it also suffers from hiccups. Xbox fans trying to rub this in PS3 gamers is hypocritical at best. #modernwarfare2

And I don't have to pay for any service except the internet.
It's a pity they took 'em out of MW2, eh. #modernwarfare2

@Deez: When did I even mention the web browser? Way to put words in my mouth. #modernwarfare2

At least with dedicated servers the servers are isolated. One goes down you can hop on another. IWnet or Demonware go down and you have no MP till they fix it. #modernwarfare2

Just because Demonware is owned by Activision and IW has videogames published by them, doesn't mean anything will be wrong with the PC servers.
ReconToaster's comment was ignorant and snotty.
ITS ALL THERE BLACK AND WHITE, CLEAR AS CRYSTAL! YOU GET NOTHING! YOU LOSE, GOOD DAY SIR! #modernwarfare2

Compare to 90K on CS:S and 65K on CS1.6. Most anticipated game this decade beaten out by a game that's nearly 10 years old.
Oh yeah, Operation Flashpoint, a game that also uses P2P matchmaking and came a month ago? 135 online currently. #modernwarfare2

@FyreWulff: Nah we got till Tron 2 till that happens. #modernwarfare2

That "3rd party companies hired to do so" isn't 3rd party at all.
Demonware were bought by ATVI in 07.

IW is actually running these servers themselves, and for some reason attempting to shift the blame as if it was an external company.
Keep the magic coming Bowling, keep it coming. #modernwarfare2

IW does NOT =demonware in any way whatso ever
this is like two siblings. one gives the xmas gift to the other to give to the parent, but the other kid only gives half the presnt to their parents.
iw gives the server duties to demonware, demonware only supplies half the required space, now iw has to make activision allow more server space for demonware to use.(as it costs money, it has to be rebudgeted in)
if anyone remembers lack of servers for bf1943, they had to do the same thing with ea, dice had to "request" more servers, and EA had to rebudget them into costs.
demonware is still a third party, and does not report to IW, they report to activision, #modernwarfare2

Not a great sign of a company well ran if they can't communicate their multiplayer needs well to an internal company.If they were hiring space from Gamespy, then fine, but as noted these are practically brothers in the ATVI family, they should learn to get on a bit better. #modernwarfare2

Dear Sony,
-where the hell are the new avatars? its 2009. either put in new ones. or create a system which we can submit avatars, and they go through some tech approval process. i need some old snake on my psn NAO!!! :P
-please fix the friends list. mad gray space for no goddamn reason. link below is a great idea.
-where are dynamic themes for:
-Uncharted
-RAtchet and clank
-MGS4
please plan for GoW3,FF13,GT5 dynamic themes... ya know games we actually want themes for.
- please also consider a approval process to change your psn id. i'm one of those fools who chose a damn psn id that does not mach the handle i use on gaming blogs,irc, etc.
-mkv support would be a nice bonus.
my 300 gb of anime would thank you
-and the usual "AHEM" put in cross game chat.
/end rant.
Edit: i messed up link.

That sounds like shifting the blame to me. They don't even ackowledge that Demonware is a subsidiary of Activision. #modernwarfare2

if your boss tells you to do a job, in co-operation with another group of employees, and you fuck up, its your fault, noones shifting blame on you, their just pointing ouit that you fucked up
this is a similar case.
iw, hey acti we need servers for ps3
ok, umm, hey we own demonware, hey you guys, get servers running, ok done iw have fun
thanks acti, oh hey, um, can we have more, alot of people cant even connect online,
what!? demonware WTF is going on!@#
theres a difference between shifting blame, and addressing blame #modernwarfare2
04:46 PM
@ToastyUterus: Demonware did not fuck up, Activision did. Demonware would have been given an estimate on the workload that would be expected for the release and Activision gave them (or didn't give them) that information which caused the situation. The fact is that it's Activision that underestimated the load and Demonware got the blame and as I can see from your comment, shifting the blame has worked. #modernwarfare2

Come on man, they shipped millions of copies, they knew how much they were intending to sell. They have no excuse in this at all. #modernwarfare2
