Well you know that imitation is the sincerest form of flattery.

If XBL is not better why do you think Sony is copy all the bullet points for PSN.

They are copy Gamercards, Gamerscore, achievements. They are doing in game XMB (XBL dash), in game soundtrack and in game chat. They are also going to copy community feature like cross game invite, may be friend list ?

But anyway, all these features are available already on XBL not to mention mountain of contents. All the arcade game demo, free movies (mostly crappy), rental movies, free demo, not to mention trailers ...

As for XBL being more laggy, I don't know what you guys pulling that bull-crap from. I play GT5P and it's no better than racing game on 360. The on-line feature of GT5P is pretty weak, bumper car mayhem not to mention the lack of invite and match up so you end up playing with random jerck that going backward on the track. I don't have COD4 on PS3 but on 360 it play just fine.

@SSJ

Just because you don't care about the features dosn't mean it's not a feature.  You are a fricking mod for crying out loud stop acting like a troll.

Blu-ray is a great feature on PS3 and I used it all the time.  Some might not care for it but it still is a great feature.  Would you have remove that as "feature" because some might said they don't like watching movie on a "gaming" system.

Please grow up and act like a mod if you are going to be one.

you = tard thank you.

I just questioned the need for those features. Really does very many people really need them? Not all games need to feature in-game chat. And why not support an IM program that everyone uses like AIM?

Quit being a TARD when I standed my OPINION and asked why anyone cared about about those features. If your going to call me out on bais of any kind do it on grounds of me saying PC > Consoles always not an opinion. Grow up or LEAVE THE FORUMS.

Aside from the bickering here, you are right, not all games need to feature in game chat

But Xbox live is universal in games in that chatting with anyone is not dependeble on the game.

I can play Halo 3 with a bunch of dudes but i can chat to my friend who's playing Call of Duty 4 for example.

My main problem with the PSN is that alot of the online stuff is so focused around what game you are playing, for instance the games at the moment require a specific in game friends list like UT3 to play and chat.

 

If Sony want to make their service as good as live they really have a long way to go, i don't think home is enough. It's about alot of community integration which Microsoft just do so well at the moment. I check Xbox.com near daily to see what my friends are playing and to send them messages which is surprisingly addictive. But also a bunch of websites are dedicated to Xbox live like 360voice.com which logs your progess. It's just a really good system and who knew it would be so big and addictive.
