Maybe for you but having played CoD4, WaW, and MW2 on both (didn't play BLOP/2 or MW3 on both so I won't comment on that), the gameplay, connection speed, and sound quality were comparable to me. They were bluetooth mics, so they weren't standardized....but they weren't "shit". And you just completely made up the load times being "especially shitty". Only less than 3 seconds behind, on average? Well, I guess also, TIL "the PS3 DID NOT have a mandatory install for this game and still managed to do well with quick load times" = "especially shitty". To each his own, I guess. But funny you should mention image quality. Because when comparing XBone to PS4, things like resolution, textures, etc. don't matter to you because it's beating a dead horse, I guess, and it doesn't affect gameplay/isn't game breaking. But last gen, it made the games "way inferior"? Ok.

And you should care because if it affects you on a personal level, you should understand that it wasn't targeted against you personally (your group personally). Nintendo being completely shunned for not being a "good enough" console, while 4 other platforms get Advanced Warfare (two of which the WiiU has better specs) should make a Nintendo gamer feel "second class" because Activision is expressly ignoring them. But feeling second class because the company intends to give you the content, but they're still a business so they take money and you wait a littler longer because of it? That's like me feeling "second class" because Foot Locker sometimes has 1-week exclusive deals on particular shoes....but I only have a Finish Line gift card. I mean, I'll still get the shoes.....

Do timed exclusives make you feel "second class"? I mean, you'll still get the content eventually, but you had to wait. Probably not, because "it's not really exclusive. I'll get the content anyway". But hey, that doesn't fit well into the anti-PS narrative.

Well gee golly that's swell for you but like I said spending a lot of time on the 360 versions, moving to PS3 was a much worse experience, again particularly with the first Blops and MW3. You're welcome to disagree, but nothing you say is going to change my experience and vice versa so oh well. And yeah I know PS3 mics were Bluetooth, hence the reason voice quality was dog shit. You have crappy BT mics being used by people and sporadic voice quality on PSN altogether that varied wildly from game to game. It wasn't a quality experience, but you get what you pay for I guess.

By image quality I am not talking textures or resolution. But you throwing yourself all over that comment sure was adorable to see, regardless. Idk, maybe learn what image quality is? PS3 had shit image quality on most multiplatform games. Never noticed how the 360 versions were usually just brighter and more colorful overall? Yeah..

You're getting too emotional over the second class comment and looking a bit too deep into it. Nothing more for me to really say on the matter though, toodles.

Oh, you're just drawing a line at textures and resolution because that's all I said. I could have said colors being washed out, brightness, etc, like ASM2 for example

  

or CoD: Ghosts

   

(open Ghosts images in a new tab), but I didn't want to make a freakin list. Not to mention in that same Lens of Truth comparing MW3, it said you just needed to adjust the brightness levels on both consoles to get the same image. Anyway, I guess you jumped the gun on that one in order to make it seem like I didn't understand "image quality", just because I didn't list every single criterion to define it. Long story short, all of a sudden, the same things that made a game "way inferior" to you don't matter to you anymore. 

And I'm not looking a bit too deep in the second class comment. You said that because you had to wait for content, you feel second class.....but you don't feel second class for timed exclusives, for example (which, in reality, is all the CoD DLC is). I mean...how am I the one getting "overly emotional" about it, but you said it affects you on a personal level? Doesn't get much more emotional than that. Another example of your hypocritical flip flopping when it doesn't suit all things Xbox.
