I find your review quite odd.  Alot of things that people almost universally find to be superior on 360 (including myself, and I have owned all 3 consoles for quite a while) you seem to criticize.  You hate the UI?  You hate the controller?  You hate microsoft points with no reason?  You're complaining about other online players? Really?  

 

You sure this review isn't just flame bait?  Maybe I should post my own reviews...

When it comes to controller it just depends what your use to if hes only used PS controllers for like 15 years then its clearly fine that it could still be his favourite.

Ive never heard anyone say before that people universally find the 360 UI better, on the contrary its a lot slower and cluttered to get to anything you want, and my biggest bug bear browsing acheivements in game is a right pain in the ass, having to go in and out of each one to see the descriptions. 

Points again is not a universally loved truth, some people get on with it, some just dont understand the need for it as they dont feel comfortable not knowing the real value of what things are at a glance, but anyone bothered by this should just realise for 90% of stuff it does work out sligtly cheaper on the market place over PSN. 

 

OT:

All in all a good review, its certainly is nice to have access to all consoles for the exclusives. 

Thanks for the back-up there. Much appreciated.

I'd add that my issue is with the points system and it's l;ack of transparency, not the prices themselves. The game prices on Live seem to be pretty good in most instances, especially since I've only been buying stuff that's discounted! :D

And, yes, it is nice to have access to more exclusives. I have a ton of good gaming ahead of me. :D
