At what price point would you ditch XBL?

PlayStation 3                         Xbox 360

XMB                                       NXE

PlayStation Store                  Marketplace

Home                                    Avatars

Trophies                                Achievements

Friends list                            Friends list

That view is way too simplistic:

This is a feature by feature comparaison but the quality and the functionality are way too different to be compared :

 

XMB is a functionality while NXE is an architecture.

PS Store is a web site while Marketplace is fully integrated

Home beats Avatars in term of goals (Avatars are still under-exploited atm).

Trophies and achievements are quite similar indeed

Friends lists is not the question but more how you interact with it.

How would you know? You havent experienced the newer PSN or PS3 interface.

The ps store is integrated, and MILES more organized,HOME beats avatars in everything, HOME is PSNs trump card in my opinion, and darn this stupid computer does not let me post apostraphies for some reason.  As for the friesnd list thing, PARTY system on XBL makes XBL superior period. That is a significant feature, and until PSN offers it, forget it, people will continue to pay for XBL

I did experienced the last interface prior selling my PS3.

PS Store is not integrated or organized ... come one.... Can you buy/browse/rate games from contextual menu without entering the marketplace ? Can you do it online from PC ? No. XBL you can, it is an inheritance from classical MS-WIndons functionality but it works great for a console.

 

We can speak about this for hours... but from what I tested (during 6 months) PSN is just trying to copy XBLive. And it is doing more and more ok... but I can't help it.... 3 € a month is still ok to me to have a better system.
