I thought it was good, and came at the right time after switching over from 360 to PS3. Just need to make some new friends, ive only 6

I listed the 4 rooms I am in at the moment, in the original post.

Current Rooms:

"OcUK Console Save the Cheerleader Textchat room" - General crap
"OcUK SF4 chat" - General SF4 crap
"OcUK SFIV Champions League" - PS3 SF4 League crap
"killzone 2 room" - Killzone 2 crap

I am still not sure exactly how this works as I sent 16 invites to the League room. Then as the other 15 were not online I sent another invite elsewhere, so I dunno what happens now if all of them logon at once. I think the restriction is 16 people participating at once, but I don;t know what happens to outstanding invites etc.

It's got more to do with the fact that it remains open while playing a game, all you have to do is tap the ps button to look at it. This was useful for example when trying to decide who should be in what squad and what class everyone should be as the opposing team could hear our voice comms.

Not everyone has a PC right next to their PS3 so running back and forth from the PC to PS3 just to set up squads would be a bit tiresome.

It has a huge flaw at present, that being the rather short word limit, but if they fix that i can see me using it all the time. Tis quite good just joining the OcUK SF4 room and dropping a message in to see if anyone wants some fights. When you send a message on it everyone in the room who isn't looking at the chap app at the time will get a notification window with the message in it, another thing that IRC wouldn't be able to do.

I wasn't knocking it! I was just explaining why you guys would be using it rather than IRC on a PC...

Because they're not playing on a PC.

I like the idea, should make arranging games and the like so much easier.

Indeed. My computer is upstairs while my PS3 is downstairs. When I used to play with people from this forum, I'd be running up and downstairs every minute to check what was going on in the IRC!
