| selnor said: Umm yes it is. Facebook on the PS3 for example is a chore. Wheras M4 saw the benefit of a proper console service for Live. Thats the difference M$ are a software company. They understood the benefits of making a specific console version. This is just one example. |
Umm, NO it is NOT... Yeah, facebook on PS3 is such a chore! Just like writing on these forums is a chore, or doing a search on google is a chore! Man I wish Sony / MS implemented a specific console version of all websites! Then I wouldn't have to open up a web browser (in MS case you can't even do that... lol) and write a couple of characters. You know what, having only facebook and NOT a web browser is actually fucking stupid. I can't believe that a system with so many "incredible" online functions that are apparently worth $50 a year does not even have a web browser and have to justify the price by making specific console versions of websites. I'll save my $50 and stop caring about voice chat and statistics on my gamer-friends!
"Oh man, look here! PwnGuy22 is playing ODST and he killed 60 enemies! He also played Halo 3 for 12 hours yesterday!! I really should pay $50 a year to get important and useful information like this! This is an amazing feat the other consoles do not have!" If you're into this, then I guess: Jump In... More power to you!
Yeah, the difference is that MS is a software company. You don't have to look any further than the solid manufacturing of the 360 to understand that... They should just stick to doing software which is just as flawed as their hardware anyway.. So what do they actually do well? Marketing aaaaaaand... Tricking people into buying their flawed products. I stopped being tricked after Windows ME crashed several times a day some years back.
