You know, most people have computers that can do what live does better for free. consoles are for gaming, like hell if I'm going to watch that crap ass encoded Netflix for money or use Last.FM when Shoutcast is a better way to go (there is an app for that too, <3 smart phones, I use Shoutcast on the road as my primary music source.)

Those live features can be done in a simple web browser and there is nothing like dev IRC sessions or simply go straight to their forums. You don't even need a gaming machine to do all those and who the hell has internet and no computer? Nobody gets internet just for a console or 2 unless the person is obsolutely retarded.

Live has xchat which is really why it's better than PSN, it's definitely not worth the 50-60 bucks you pay a year, and on the flip side, no xchat on PSN but you don't have to pay a dime to play games online, which is actually a much better value than xchat for that amount of money.

I have consoles for games, games, GAMES! It's a no shit that the PS3 is a better value when it comes to pure gaming. Not to mention that the supreme VoIP app right now is Mumble, nothing on consoles can even touch that thing, no other VoIP in the world is better than Mumble for gaming atm, and that's free too.

Has anyone mentioned the fact that you are going to be able to upload your photos and videos from your kinect to facebook and third party game developer sites?  Yoostar 2 is making it so your able to upload your videos, and Kinect adventures is allowing the pic app across the internet.

Also, I have a question for the PS3 guys, is your chat sound like a intercom or does it sound like a clear as day internet voice chat?  This November 2nd we are getting an upgraded codec, and I was just interested in what PS3 had.

That also has a list of new little tid bits we will be getting soon.  And also, we are getting the "family pack" soon, which will give us 4 memberships for the price of 2.  I actually think that is why they bumped up the price, to make that ever so enticing.



V:  And the truth is, there is something terribly wrong with this country, isn't there? Cruelty and injustice, intolerance and oppression. And where once you had the freedom to object, to think and speak as you saw fit, you now have censors and systems of surveillance coercing your conformity and soliciting your submission. How did this happen? Who's to blame? Well certainly there are those more responsible than others, and they will be held accountable, but again truth be told, if you're looking for the guilty, you need only look into a mirror. I know why you did it. I know you were afraid. Who wouldn't be? War, terror, disease. There were a myriad of problems which conspired to corrupt your reason and rob you of your common sense. Fear got the best of you, and in your panic you turned to the now high chancellor, Adam Sutler. He promised you order, he promised you peace, and all he demanded in return was your silent, obedient consent. Last night I sought to end that silence.
