Anyone that played the MGS3 online knows that it is nothing like that at all. Not at all.
Of course I haven't played it online. The most I've seen of console games, honestly, was sitting in your house. You forget, that until a couple of years ago, I refused to have anything to do with the lot of them. The only console we have is a Wii, and I don't see us being able (or willing, really) to afford another console any time in the near future, especially w/ all the good games being $60 or so.
That was the point.
