Is this due to fully integrated voice-chat on console?
Or is this due to dedicated servers available for PC, but not for consoles?

memory might be an issue
While in Last Stand, you’ll be firing your side arm from the ground with one hand. Putting up one final last stand against the enemy before you bleed out, or they put one final round into you.
I really have no clue about this, so any info would b greatly appreciated :)
Thnx

I don't think it's that bad though, COD2 with 32+ players (there are 64 player servers) is a bit too chaotic anyway.

Battlefield 2: Modern Combat had dedicated servers. It's just up to what the developers feel is necessary. Most of the high-quality PC servers are rented 3rd party, or set up by gaming websites, with only a small number actually being from the developers. Xbox Live doesn't have that sort of open infrastructure, so it's either dev. servers, or p2p.
Blackhawk Down on the Xbox had support for 50 players, so again, it's merely developer choice. I personally don't feel the need for dedicated servers is needed at present, although I'd enjoy a Battlefield/Armed Assault-esque game.
This 16 player limit isn't limited to 360 either, the PS3 version will also be the same.
It's just one of the reasons why I still prefer playing FPS games on my PC.. No BS with lowest common denominator limitations on that platform, open environment with a lot more (free!) 1st and 3rd party stuff like extra maps, models and mods etc, 1st and 3rd party dedicated server support, and most important for me, much better controls.. FPS on consoles has come a long way, but it's clearly still not at the PC level..
Dedicated server support can and will probably be added to XBL in the (near?) future, but free 3rd party content and mouse+keyboard support I don't see happening anytime soon (they want to keep selling premium content on their service, and M+K support creates to much balance issues).. So it looks like I won't be giving up playing FPS (and RTS) on the PC anytime soon, and offcourse I will buy the PC version of CoD4.. My Xbox 360 will play games like Forza 2 and GTA-IV etc..
