DF and LOT both said/showed that the ps3 has some advantages, while the xbox one has advantages. they have their different cons to, but like i said based off their analyse, they are the same, and if you say other wise your really pulling straws. ps3 also upscales DVD's so whats your point. and has had built in wifi since launch so how is psn terrible, i bet you cant give a ligitimate reason why live is better. i post, what i said in the MOst overrated thread:
people pay $60 for what? hardly any dedicated server games (playstation has wa more) small multiplayer counts, i think the most so far is 24. (psn has 30, 32, 60, and i believe 256) no internet browser. very closed network (cant get games with features like LBP and Portal) it started the paid DLC psn has netflix, vudoo, mlb.tv, nhl network, hulu, and even espn3 through the browser (all of these at no extra charge) the only thing it has the psn doesnt (though the free steam does) is cross game chat. so they are paying $60 to use their own internet connection and are happy about it. theres a reason paid for window live failed. people new that werent paying for anything, they were getting scammed |
You want reasons why LIVE is better?
1. Ease of use/Better Integrated
2. Party Chat and Cross game chat
3. Faster updates and downloads
4. XBLA > PSN arcade (or whatever its called)
5. Last.FM and ESPN
What games does PSN have dedicated servers for? Killzone? MAG? Both of those games multiplayer are terrible so I could care less. You may like them but the majority and myself enjoy the multiplayer of 360 games much more. Every other big multiplat shooter uses the same server system so that argument is void.
The internet browser is bad on the PS3 and to argue otherwise is a waste of time. If someone doesn't have a PC or laptop at home then you have an argument but the 99.9 % of other people who do will use the PC or laptop for surfing the internet.
LIVE is worth the $60 a YEAR. Thats $5 a month, which actually to pay full price you would be a fool. Deals are to be found everywhere. If you can't afford it then you need a new job. For someone like you who only owns the PS3 you don't understand but for people who own both consoles they all agree LIVE is better. You can back up your opinions with some uber bias PS3 owners on this site but every single person I know who owns both consoles despises PSN compared to LIVE. For the record 7 of my friends including myself own both consoles and we all agree LIVE is better.
