Well, I'll have to wait for 2.40 but assuming everything in it works well, it's pretty even in my eyes.

XBL:
Tons of content
People actually chat with each other in-game
Great online-enabled game selection
XBLA

PSN:
Dedicated servers (fuck you, Microsoft)
Free
Full game purchases on PSN

I still prefer the layout of the Dashboard but the in-game XMB might change that. I really want to play around with it to see how Sony implements it all. I don't give two shits about Home and I really hope Sony doesn't force us to boot into the "game" to use some of the PSN features. I want to get into a game quick and dirty, not jump into a social program to organize a game with friends.

Seriously, the notion that people on PSN do not chat is simply not true. I play COD4 all the time and we have to chat to coordinate.


Compare it to XBL, where most people are chatting instead of some people chatting. Just an hour ago, I logged into MGO and saw two people talking... Out of 10 or 12 (didn't count). I still think Sony screwed the pooch by not including a headset with every SKU. It was one of the smarter things MS did with XBL.
