Offtopic i know, but does anyone use Face book or Twitter?

 

I just dont like face book, im not some 15 year kid with long shaggy hair and skatesboard, just not my thing.

 

Twitter is just lame, look at me im taking a dump! wohhoo!

 

OT-  I already hate paying for XBL but im glad i didnt have to wait for those great features to come 3 years later than the rival systems.

Yes, I do. And I use my 360 get update my Twitter and check my Facebook some times, though it's easier to hop on my Crackberry and look at stuff.

I've had LIVE for 5 years - and have had PSN for 2 years. I have tried and tried to find value in PSN but don't.

I'll stick to paying for LIVE over the free PSN, thank you.


well, i logged onto live the other day, checked some new stuff demos etc. and then just logged off it was boring. just nothing to do.

on psn everything is just better, i can play my online games when i want without having to pay a penny. i mosly use the psn features weekly

imo theres no comparison to be made. live has a few extra bells but not worth a charge.

Funny you say that and I'd have Gold membership for 5 years.

I'm grown and can make my own decision, financially and the like. I love not paying for something. However, free doesn't equal better. I enjoy LIVE. I liked LIVE so much I bought a chatpad for one of my controllers. I enjoy it.

As a reviewer, I have to be unbiased. I approach every game the same way - sell me on why anyone should pay $50, $60 for it.

As you know, look at the membership numbers. More people are paying for LIVE than PSN. That's a given. But just as you say you wouldn't pay anything for LIVE, several, myself included, say we would. Really, it's $30 a year for LIVE - barely $3 a month for it. And that's .10 a day. I find value in LIVE - and just SMH at PSN. A lot like it because it's free - but let Sony wise up and start charging for the service, I can bet you folks perception of PSN would change.

As stated, I avoid PSN like the plague. It often leaves me confused - even after spending time with it and trying to get into the mind of PSN lovers and wonder 'What do they see in it beside it being free?'


likewise i avoid live like the plague.

like i said i logged into live and logged out it was boring and nothing to do apart from roam marketplace.

Live is not for browsing the marketplace, it's for playing games.  If you aren't playing xbox games or using any of the multiplayer options, there is no reason for you to pay for it.  It is true that PSN is free, but I never found any real value in it.  I still don't see the point of Home and I just never felt connected to anything or anyone on that system to the same extent as I have with Live.  I have other gripes, but after messing around with Warhawk, I haven't felt the need to run out and get any more PS3 multiplayer games.

I give that post a 9.2.



Thank god for the disable signatures option.
