you gotta remember though, Xbox Live started some time ago, in a time where not everyone was ready for Console Internet Gaming. Here in Britain, most people still had 56K modems when Xbox Live started. Now, however, everyone is equipped with Broadband and its much easier to set up internet gaming as most computers come Ethernet ports now as standard.

That is a good point, I forgot that xBox live started with the original xBox. At the same time Sony has done a good job if half of PS3 owners signed up for it, especially when the service isn't that good, and is terrible in the EU compared with NA and Japan.


They offered a free movie (Casino Royale) to the first 500,000 who signed up for PSN, so I can see how the adoption rate would be high. Free online, Free movie, win-win.
