Can Microsoft's gaming division still be profitable with free XBL?

Well while before it was clear live was better, now it will be left up to preference. In game messaging, an achievement system, all of that will be on the PSN and it will be free. I think everyone can agree (unless you really hate Sony) that if Sony is offering it for free, the extra features you get out of the Xbox360.

 

I can do both of these already on my free Silver account.

 

It's a shame you can't actually play games online with those friends you are messaging with your free silver account.

And it's also a shame that it took almost 2 years for SONY to put only some of the features that XBL has and when is HOME coming again?
