The advent of PSN, XBox Live and the hundred and one PC variants of these services has been a great boon for gamers. No longer do we have to ring our buddies and get the IP address of the server they're playing on, or even have to go around their house to have a quick one on one splatter fest. With friends lists growing into their hundreds, on all services, there is always someone out there to play with and have fun with online. Community gaming is no longer a LAN party based in some god awful Community Centre next to the church, it's now acceptable.
