I barely game on my PS3, so I haven't really bothered.

I have a bunch of SP titles, a coupel online games I rarely use online, and then a BD player.

People onthe 360 sit there and flame each other. The people on PSN talk about what they did at school that day, or their date last nig ht, or how painful anal sex was... It's a massive fucking distraction. If I see someone intelligent, I'll turn my mic on, if they wanna talk about soccer practice and how to bake cookies, I'll mute them
"How painful anal sex was".

I sure would find that embarrassing as hell if I walked in on that.

" o_O I'm sorry, what does butt sex have to do with Sony? Wait... don't answer that, I don't wanna know."

It was mor like:

"I'm telling you! I hurt!"
- Well you just didn't put enough lube
"Lube? He said only pussies use lube!"
- You have one! you qualify! What a dick... I think that officially qualifies as anal rape
"Well if you're supposed t o use lube, tyhat explains how I can't walk... Anal sex sucks"

Something along those basic line. I just laughed my ass off and then we chatted all night

I did buy a PS3 mic, but I don't use it as much on my PS3, mainly because I rarely am online. Instead, I use the mic for other things, like recording.

I have a mic for the ps3, but i tend to mute everyone because everyone has their mic sensitivity set to 11 and you can hear all sorts of dumb crap.

why yes I do, on both nods I might add.
I own a PS3, while I prefer my sturdy Xbox 360.
And I do own a mic!... for my Xbox 360.
did I mention that the Xbox 360 is superior?

I got one. Don't use it, much. Because no one else has one. I'm talking to myself on MoH and Castle Crashers.

And it's uncomfortable, since I bought a cheap BT just so I can use it with PS3.

I'm hoping it will see more use when I pick up Brotherhood today.

If Sony included mics with the PS3, there would be no problem. I have a mic but hardly use it because there is no one to talk to :(
there's me! :D

I have a mic, but I never use it because I'm a girl.

Seriously. That's why I don't use it. Any time I ever spoke up on Red Dead Redemption, my group would suddenly go quiet and awkward, and then people would begin to drop out.

Is there any way to alter your voice with the mic?

With more and more games depending on online play its important for the majority of people who own a console to have a mic and make it useful enough to buy. I owned a 360 first and I couldn't imagine not having a mic. But now I own a PS3 there dont seem to be enough people who either own one or use one for me to be pressured into buying one.

If you own A PS3 do you have or use a mic?

EDIT: Also if you have one tell me do you find it useful?
ANY BLUETOOTH MIC works with a PS3, so I use a Platronics Voyager, great mic.

I think there is in the options on the main PS3 menu thingy. But if it's like most other voice alterers I've seen, you'll either sound like you're on helium or you're a big, fat, gruff guy who speaks so low it just sounds like someone's playing a tuba down the mic rather than speaking.

I have one but I don't use it. On whatever rare occasion I actually decide to play my PS3 online, my friends and I will just run chat via Xbox LIVE instead. It's a Hell of a lot less hassle.
