The gaming we aren't going to agree on, but enough people (in my opinion) have noticed what I have, maybe it is Playstation is better supported away from Australia, but ask people from Australia, Europe etc and they will most likely have the same issues as I have talked to plenty of people on the ps3 about it.
Portal 2 will be most likely more supported with the 360 or evenly done across the board. As portal: still alive, is that even on the PS3 yet?

I'm in the UK and I don't have any problems with PSN. Not sure on mainland Europe and I'm on a cable broadband connection as opposed to the normal phone line broadband so my speed is more consistent as the distance from the exchange means squat. Either way, in the UK I don't know anyone that's had major problems with PSN. Sucks for you Aussies... as does not having the Ashes ;)
I believe Valve are implementing Steamworks on Portal 2 for PS3 but not on 360 due to Live restrictions. This means more frequent and free updates on PSN and Steam unless Microsoft allow Steamworks implementation or come to some other agreement with Valve.

Low blow on the ashes -.- Aus Cricket team is a freaking shambles atm.
Yeah I heard PS3 is getting steam or something though I dont understand the advantage, could that be part of psn plus or what?

English cricket was a shambles barely 10-15 years ago, so now we're winning stuff it needs to be rubbed in (especially as it probably won't last that long)!
With Steam I think it's to do with updates and some of the other Steamworks features. For instance, when a game is updated on Steam it should also be updated automatically on PS3. Might also be that saved games are backed up. I doubt Sony would allow the full single purchase, cross-platform play thing with PC/Mac, but they may let you use a saved game on PS3 on the PC/Mac version. It's all conjecture at this point but I think the first two points are quite likely.
