PSUNews: "Speaking with Kotaku, Microsoft's Group Product Manager for Xbox 360 Aaron Greenberg shared his opinion on PlayStation Home, expressing that it feels outdated and there is a "huge gap" in the quality of Home when compared to Microsoft’s Xbox Live service.


"I think we have seen people are willing to pay for the premium experience," Greenberg said. "When they compare Live, even to Home, there is still a huge gap."


"What Home to me feels like is Second Life for hardcore gamers," he said, "it doesn’t feel like it broadens the experience and invites people in. When they unveiled it, it seemed innovative. I think what's happened is now here we are a couple of years later and we feel beyond that."

"It feels like 2005 tech in 2008. I'm not sure that’s what people want."


Needless to say, we certainly don’t share Greenberg’s views on the matter, but with PlayStation Home now entering its public beta phase, we’ll finally be able to see how punters react to the online social platform and whether or not Sony can deliver on its promises in the coming months.

Stay tuned."

 

My Personal Opinion:   MS Green with Envy? Guess there wishing they would have ripped off Sonys Idea instead of Nintendos Mii's now huh? :P
