Star Wars: Clone Wars is, like Capcom vs SNK 2, another game on all 3 platforms but just has netplay on X-Box Live... and I'm sure there are (or will be) more...
PS only has online games because its huge market share means that companies don't mind as much paying to set up online networks... because Sony doesn't have one. Its strictly up to the developers... X-Box Live does it for them, making it an easier system to put into games, and, I imagine, cheaper... though of course just because of the sheer size of the PS2 owner population, that console will get online games... even though Sony's actual online policy for 3rd party developers doesn't seem to be much different from Nintendo's...
