Heh, I was just replying to an article and commented on why I thought this was a weak comparison.
A lot of the points are weak, dont just bring up the xbox ones, but it is just a comparison to give an unbias'd view on everything possible, its goddam obvious you dont need the stuff.

No, I did not slam this, although it seems more expensively options were picked and it's worth mentioning that for instance a headset, keyboard, mouse, bigger harddrive, etc you buy for the PS3 can be used with other mainstream devices as well.
Using your argument, I can use the xbox's wireless addon on my computer!! haX! I never would, but I could! Further, people, like me who buy stuff for certain items, generally use it for that product, IE: if i have a keyboard for my PC, i will use it for my pc, not drag it to my ps3 when i want to use it. Headset, maybe, but again, I would generally leave it with my ps3, as otherwise it will end up in my car and i wont know where it is!.
Note: I dont own a ps3 or xbox.

No doubt Live is the XBox 360's strong point, but I am looking forward to Home and it will be free for the PS3!
Valid, home looks rad, and to be honest if that hadn't come, I would have probably liked the new Xbox (so for clarification again, I think its overpriced, and may help them loose this console war).
Also, earlier on you mentioned that you had to re-subscribe. Most people who I know who have live are happier paying for online service that is good, to them its like they are paying for a game every year, that is always reliable.
Further to anyone who thinks Wireless and Free Online games is a huge advantage. Get off your high horse, I cant think of any game I or any "hardcore" gamer would want to play wireless.
