I try and it keeps failing.

It was working yesterday for me but it didn't work on release day. I was able to receive invites so I am guessing some people were able to connect. GTA4 is the first game that has disappointed me with online play on the PS3. Resistance worked fine, Warhawk, COD4, UT3 and MotorStorm never any major problems. Most games that I have that are online have worked fine, have let me connect....even Full Auto 2, although there was nobody else on it, lol.

Rockstar/Sony should have gone the Warhawk route. If people are still having problems. Last night I didn't have any.

@dasimpse - People do talk on the PS3 version.

Is it just me or is the PS3 version just not able to go online? I mean it won't even connect. Is it just me?

Live is like always smooth and working, I guess we pay to play.

That sounded very......I am not gonna say it.

EDIT: Let me say before people think otherwise, I meant you sound like Microsoft's PR person there....

But seriously, GTA4....is the only one to have this kind of problem on the PSN....and for a free service, it's impressive I would say and most people should be able to connect now..

I and others have had similar issues with GT5 Prologue too

I am sure we will get a patch though.

ive had some live problems today,not sure if it was MS or my line though.

For thoughts that aren't able to get online on the ps3 try reset you modem and router and restarting the ps3. When I did this I was back online.

Its great. I just got through playing deathmatch on Live and it was awesome. Ran smooth as butter too.

Uh.... That's not true. Lot's of PS3 games mess up and won't connect online.

I was able to get online with the PSN today in the evening. I was able to play....there was some minor lag but it didn't mess up anything.

And I guess I was wrong in saying every game but every game I have tried playing online with the PSN (Warhawk, MotorStorm, UT3, Burnout Paradise, Resistance, Call of Duty 4 and Ghost Recon 2 - these are the online games I have and other than the stat tracking problem with Warhawk in the beginning I have never not been able to join a game) has been fine up until now with GTA4 which is fine for me now....and hopefully stays that way.

The biggest letdown so far dealing with PSN for me has been GTA4 with online on the PS3 but they know about the issue and hopefully have fixed it by now. I'll try to connect tomorrow as well to see if I can connect or not.

I guess I should have just said that this topic is talking about Live and how it is doing with handling GTA traffic so people didn't need to take digs at PSN or whatever. It wasn't called for.
