Well to be honest with you, they are probably on X-box Live. The 360 is the most popular on line console. True the d-pad on the controller blows but most SF fans, myself included, play Street Fighter on an arcade stick anyway.

I think the issue you're finding has little to do with the system, but rather the genre. Look at it this way: An FPS games go about twently minutes people stay online in their lobbies longer. Larger fan base following. Fighters are just now starting to grow back up into life again thanks to the announcement of SFIV. An MMO has people playing for hours in one or two constant worlds where they spend HOURS. For SF, a lot of people get on and play a couple rounds than hop off.

It just makes for shorter play-sessions, so not as many people may be on at the same time. Dont' get me wrong, there are exceptions (I end up playing for thirty minutes to an hour at times). But because of the constant intensity of the game, it usually ends up in spurts that are broken up throughout the day for me.
