Agreed, even though since the release of LBP, Resistance 2, Super Street Fighter 2 Turbo HD, and my great fortune of recieving an invite to the HOME Closed Beta, PSN has takin me over a lot more as of late.

Yeah, i remember griping about the new XBOX Live "experience" thinking that it was going to suck, but I really have been impressed (although I don't care for the silly little avatar people... seems like a Wii rip-off to me).

But the new interface and of course Netflix streaming movies is just too cool to ignore.

I haven't actually gotten a chance to experience the PSN HOME, but I hope its all I've heard it is.  There are only three things that annoy me about the PS3 (and they are easily fixable)...

1) The PSN.  Yes it's free, but thank god for that.. I wouldn't pay ten cents a month for it.  I thought Wii Channels were bad, but geez, it's a close call between it and the PSN for who takes the cake.

2) The built in battery on the controller.  I absolutely hate the fact that the best feeling controller on the market dies on me in the middle of COD4 matches. Very annoying.

3) Not enough people actually have/use a Bluetooth headset (although it's been slowly getting better). It's hard to play COD4 when only 1 out of 8 of my teammates are actually talking.  It makes strategy really hard.

That's pretty much it.  Although it would be cool to see Sony & Blockbuster teamup the way that Netflix & MS did...

I'd just be happy to see the PSN actually kick some butt instead of hiding in the corner like a beat down step child.
