Sony - Honesty people...PSN - View Post

Oh and the PSN games are VASTLY superior to the Xbox live games. I have bought at least 8 PSN games so far and loved all of them. Looking at geometry wars compared with PSN games (supposedly the best XBL game) is like looking at atari games and comparing them to the PS1.

 

What an ignorant statement. You're basing the entirety of the XBLA lineup on the fact that Geometry Wars reminds you of an Atari game? How about Assault Heroes, Aces of the Galaxy, Ikaruga, Soulcalibur, Rez HD, Doom, TMNT the Arcade Game, Mutant Storm, Schizoid, Penny Arcade Adventures, N+, Prince of Persia Classic, Ultimate Mortal Kombat 3, etc. Oh and Braid, Castle Crashers, Banjo-Kazooie, Vigilante 8 Arcade, and the new XNA development games coming out this Fall, amongst plenty of others?

What games are so great on PSN that there aren't equivalent offerings on XBLA? Shooters like Super Stardust HD and Everyday Shooter? Got 'em. Fighting games like Tekken 5? Got 'em. Sports games? Puzzle games? Board games? Quirky cross genre mashups? They're all on Live too.

Not to mention that Sony doesn't take their Playstation original games section seriously. Where are all the games people actually want to play? Xbox Originals just came out at the end of last year and there's already over 20 titles, almost all of which were games that fans wanted to own. Not garbage like Jumping Flash and Destruction Derby. You would think Sony would have a quarter of the PSOne lineup in the store by now or at least keep pace with even one of the consoles offered on the Virtual Console or Xbox Originals.

Regarding the main topic itself, I haven't played enough on PSN to make an informed decision, but overall I liked it.
