I would love to know what he likes about the PS3, he is allways spewing poison on anything not Xbox, so his statement has little value.

In this instance everyone agrees. It's like using your phone for internet. It's a bumbling shocking mess. Apps are the way to go. Both Apple and M$ realised this years ago.

I dunno.....Opera on my Blackberry works like a charm, and Safari on the iPhone/iTouch is great. So I'm confused at what you're getting at.

Once again, something > nothing. You can make a big calamity about how much the PS3 browser isn't good, but remember, THE 360 DOESN'T HAVE ONE AT ALL. So why're you complaining? 

You don't like Blu-rays because the movies are expensive. So does that mean that since the PS3 has a BD drive instead of a DVD drive, it's a "nightmare"? (that was a hypothetical, btw). I'd rather have the OPTION of using a feature than not having the option.

How about this, why don't you just buy a DVD player, and enjoy that all by itsself? It can't play games, while the 360 can. But, you seem to like the "less = more" approach that M$ always spews.

I'm not complaining. It's the PS3 fans coming here stating crap. They know it works horrible. I'll admit I have only used it twice to look at Facebook and Hotmail at my mates. But it is like licking carpet. I would much rather Sony incorporate the social networking stuff into specially designed PS3 apps. Also M$ are designing a special application for 360 for Live members to write up there own reviews, guides, cheats etc. Again to do that on PS3 you have to bumble through the Internet browser. It's a console not a PC.

And why on earth would you waste time using Internet programs on Iphone. There are over 10,000 Apps which are so much easy and better to use.

Also where 360 is concerned, with Live intergration into Windows phone 7, apps are gonna start flying onto Xbox Live. I really believe Xbox Live this time next year is gonna be HUGE.



I can stream free porn full screen therefore it is awesome!

Please Watch/Share this video so it gets shown in Hollywood.

Youtube works pretty well, I can even check my e-mail's with not problem and look up some walkthroughs if I'm stuck. I don't think Sony ever intended for the PS3 to replace my computer, they just gave me a nifty browser for free..



Bet with Conegamer and AussieGecko that the PS3 will have more exclusives in 2011 than the Wii or 360... or something.

He likes the fact that it's in third place.

Man the PS3 web browser is shit. On youtube, the videos keep reloading over and over agian. If you click something the mouse goes from the search button back to the search box then back to the search button.

Horrible. Still better than nothing.



The PS3 browser has always served my purposes. Always use it to watch Youtube on my 52" TV when my buddy/family is over. Beats everyone standing around a 16" screen on a laptop. Never really liked this less is more approach.

Kinda off topic. Since its pretty obvious MS is making a profit off the 360 Elites sold (or at least everyone says they are), why don't they add in something like the old Wi-Fi adaptor for free? I just hate this whole nickel and dime thing MS has going on. Kinda makes me feel like their motto should be: "You want to do something with your 360 besides local gameplay? Yea, we got a price for that."



you guys do realize it takes a cable and 2 sec to plug a laptop to a monitor???
and i can split screen or PIP check out a gamefaq while playing... or have pendora while playing etc.... I'm not saying i don't want one... but saying i can check out videos on big screen because a console have a browser is not really a good argument IMO... anyway I always have my laptop on my laps while playing.... it doubles as a table if not needed to surf :D



i cant believe iam saying this but i have too agree with that cocksucker Greensburg, web surfing is a nightmare, even with the keyboard add on it still pointless. one only good thing one can up with the PS3 browser is that streaming is not much of a problem.



ROFLMAO

says the company that made internet explorer 6 - 7 -8 hahhahahahah OMG AHAHAHAHAHAHA
