this thread has turned into a flame war, may I suggest a lock?

Surprise. Which thread doesn't turn into a flamewar on this board anymore?

When the high PS3 price went away, all the trolls came out to play.

 

I see no trolling.

Only people pointing out that one could argue that Live's exclusive features when compared to PSN don't justify the price. Yes, people have different opinions. That's not called trolling. If Sony said "We have the best online service", and people said "No, because of x, y and z", that wouldn't be trolling either.

If you can't accept other people's opinions, I suggest you get off the internet.


Perhaps the reason people love Live is the complete experience rather than a list of arbitary features.  The fact that its completely integrated into the 360 gaming experience makes it a better experience than PSN anyway before you add the extra features it has. 

People have been trolling in this thread, you seriously need to take off your rose tinted spetacles if you're that much in denial.  I expect nothing less though from a master of the art.

Oh please, when do I ever troll? My moderation history is clear.

I am simply stating that people have opinions. Many people believe that Live is worth the price. Some people don't. An opinion which is different to your own is not "trolling". In fact, I think the main problem with the community here of late is not people trolling, but people screaming "TROLL!" whenever somebody expresses an unpopular opinion.

I don't have sufficient experience with Live to really judge it, but from what I've seen, it's an excellent service, that much cannot be denied. Whether it is $40/year better than PSN is debatable. And I disagree that "no online service can touch Live", because I think Steam is much better, and many would agree with me.

Please read the first 4 pages of this thread and tell me there was no trolling.  Seriously you look like an ass arguing that point when a mod entered this thread asked for it to remain on topic and banned/warned some members. 

I'd personally say entering a discussion and claiming a fact that is false despite the evidence clearly in front of you just to start a argument is trolling, just because you've not been banned just means you don't cross the line enough for the mods to act.  In your defence at least you add plenty of positives to the site with your contributions.

Steam is indeed a better service than Live but it's not integrated with every PC and its not on a console so I don't see the relevance to the original PR statement.  I do have experience with both PSN and Live (and Steam) and I choose to pay to play on my 360 online.
