Ps owners should thank MS or online gaming in consoles i guess.


What? PS2 (Socom FTW) and dreamcast had online gaming.............. That was going to happen with or without MS. Achievements I would agree, but online gaming was on PC for years and on other consoles, MS had zero to do with that.


Sorry but it was MS who pushed online gaming into consoles. The dreamcast ans ps2 were horrible online. I think Sony has done great things for gaming but saying that xbox fans should thank sony for the elder s online is an exaggeration in my opinion.

Online was coming to console regardless of MS or not...Yes they did a good job with it, but Sony would have had online gaming with ps3 with or without MS, it was the natural revolution of the industry, passed on from PC, not xbox.

 

So by your logic, MS should thank Sony they have a console?

No Sega, for having a console.

Console online gaming was not the natural Evolution of the industry. Look at Nintendo. Still no solid online infrastructures.

If it wasn't for MS Sony would still be competing with Nintendo on who's gonna pump out more Platformers and JRPGs that naturally aren't good platforms for online gaming.
