@reidlogsog  i dont use that feature because i only care about gaming on my PS3. and no it is not that "horrific" but its not great and how do you know Kinect is so much better??? do you have one yet??? but thats not really the point I still dont see how it is worth 50 a year if the Kinect thing excites you and your willing to pay for that then by all means go ahead. I dont use webcam on my PS3 because I dont care about stuff like that so paying for that feature is a no-no for me. i only wanna play the occasional online game, nothing else dont wanna talk to some jacksass playing MW2 while im playing SSF4 i dont want netflix, facebook, twitter or any of that crap

@kimsk112 no it isnt but thats ok playing games online is still free thats all that matters IMO

@richardhutnik   you get to play all the demos on PSN also last I checked, can you tell me a game recently thats come out that you cant play a demo for??? im being serious, i dont download demos so i could be wrong

Ok, you can argue a point about the likes of large commercial titles, that sell at the the likes of Game Stop, but how many PS3 downloadable games have demos for them, unless you go plus?  Could I, for example, get a demo for Super Star Dust, or the Quest for Booty?  Was there a demo for Gran Turismo Prologue?  Maybe I am missing something, but I know I would of downloaded a bunch more content to try if it were available.

The thing on the 360 is that about everything gets a demo for it.   My understanding is that Sony charges people who produce content a fee for how much their content is downloaded.  There is a reason they went with Plus, and that was to pay for the bandwidth involved with the downloading of content.

I don't think you're looking very hard for demos. I find demos for pretty much everything I want. Out of the 3 you pointed out I'm pretty sure I downloaded a demo of SuperStardust HD, and before GT5 Prologue was released (like a year before) they had the GT5 HD Concept, and they've had the limited time GT5 time trial contests to show off the new physics engine. Not sure about Quest for Booty but I know I downloaded a total of 3 Ratchet and Clank demos.
