ironman said: The restaurant analogy is complete fail. Lets try this one. The Anitvirus program market. Now, PSN is like the free version of PC tools Spyware doctor. It works pretty good, but it doesn't have all the bells and whistles. XBL is like the paid version of Spyware doctor. It has realtime protection and a deeper scan setting. For some people, the free version is all they need, others want more, so they pay for the enhanced version. |
This analogy works better if you say that Live and PSN have the same antivirus capabilities, but you pay for live because it came in a shiny box with a bell.... and whistle.

You are absolutely correct. I went about my analogy wrong. Let me put it this way. PSN is like Free antivirus software programs, they work fine, but do not catch everything, and the realtime protection is limited. XBL is like the Antivirus programs you pay for, they are rock solid, have full realtime protection, and do full sweeps. Now, both work, one just works better and is worth the money you put into it. PSN and XBL do NOT have the same capabilities. They both do what they are supposed to. One just does a better job, and it should because people have to pay for it.

Well you got one thing right, one should do a better job because you have to pay for it, unfortunately it doesn't.
|
Actually, I got more than one thing right. Try getting out of your shell and actually using XBL...I'm talking the entire experiance. You will then see that it is far superior to PSN. And quite frankly, it had better be since you have to pay for it. Trust me, it is well worth the money. If it wasn't, very few people would actually be paying for it, and it would fail. Nuff said! Pass the dip!

I have used XBL, and I found it no better than PSN. I found it more annoying actually, because when I take the 360 to the cabin, I can't play most of the downloadable content that has been purchased, and paid for, because the thing wants to connect to live first.
