| slowmo said: PSN is catching up with Live but why has it taken over 3 years? A service thats not equivalent cannot be better value in any way other than subjectively for each individual user, the fact so many people pay $50 a year to experience Gold access suggests your statement is false for a significant number of gamers. Taking away feature lists and considering the experiences as a whole PSN is still a way off being the fully integrated service Live is and thats where many see the value of the service. You're welcome to your opinion that PSN is a better value propostition for yourself but owning both consoles myself I still prefer Live and don't mind the fee for the service I receive. |
Well, let's consider someone who just wants to play games online. Why would Live be worth $50 a year to do something the PS3 can for free? To be honest I do not think I'll use netflix but will hold my final decision for now. I guess it would be a matter of what you use your online service for. Mainly I use it for multiplayer games, I do not purchase PSN store games. I do download free demos. This is the reason I feel Live is not a good idea for someone like me.
