These are the exact reasons why I think PSN is better. You read my mind dude. Even if XBL was free. I would still prefer PSN due to the dedicated servers. Games like Killzone 2, Mag, Resistance 2, and Socom 4 support way more players than what any xbox game can.  So does xbl have any games that support over 30 players ? Guess not because they still use shitty P2P.

Really though thats up to the game developers. They decide how many players there are and whether or not to use dedicated servers.

Then I guess Sony doesnt have cheap ass developers that will actually pay to get decent servers up. I really really HATE player to player. ITs the worst.

I've played on both dedicated and P2P on XBL (and PSN) and I can honestly say there isn't much of a difference except P2P has a slightly better chance to lag. I'd prefer if they would all use dedicated servers but P2P really isn't the worst....not being able to play online at all is the worst.

PSN is free and live is around $80 a year in Australia, so PSN automatically wins. A few things I like about live though are the demos they have for every XBLA game, the have a larger amount of demos for their retail games and they get a few cool exclusives that don't come on PSN (Super Meat Boy, Geometry Wars, Limbo).

I also find PSN store easier to use, I don't like how XBLA games are all split into different sectors and then I have to scroll through them using a broken D-Pad that keeps making me switch panels. It also looks less classy.

LMAO just use the left thumbstick...soooooooooo much easier to control and use the right and left bumpers and triggers to manuver faster through stuff.

Dude, I'm old school. I use every oppurtunity I can get to use a D-Pad, I also usually find them easier to use when navigating and it's an impulse built into me from the use of all my other consoles. Microsoft has gotta get on fixin that thing.



Bet with Conegamer and AussieGecko that the PS3 will have more exclusives in 2011 than the Wii or 360... or something.

I said XB360 because I thought you were talking about the downloadable games, but other than that PSN is way better.

You have no idea what you are talking about. Killzone 2 has more players in multiplayer because that is how many players the devs wanted in the game. Mag could have 1,000,000 players and it would still suck, but once again a design choice, not cause PSN is "better" according to you. Socom 4 isn't even out yet. All of those games combined didn't sell as much as COD so I guess it doesn't matter if its P2P does it? This site should have an minimum IQ requirement before posting.
