Forums - Microsoft Discussion - Greenberg: PS3 Browser 'An Absolute Nightmare', No Future 360 Web Surfing

Wasnt this the very reason MS got involved with consoles, the fear that Soony would take the front room with a simple yet powerful machine that accesses the web? The reason they will not add a browser is that it will hurt anouther market of theirs. For your information I use the PS3's browser to watch videos from the net, i.e. youtube, bbc iplayer, iraqgoals (if someone knows of a better site for live football I would love to know) and pornhub.

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.

The 360 and the PS3 are the two most similar consoles ever, so if he loves the 360 there must be plenty to love on the PS3.

The browser really sucks. No flamebait, but it does.



Imagine not having GamePass on your console...

I use the browser for youtube in the living room.



Well BBC I Player works perfectly in it, and id rather watch tv on my tv than on my laptop.

its not really the PS3's fault though, they need a firefox support and it will be fine.
plus from my experience, Microsoft's Internet Explorer is a nightmare turned real but since Greenberg is microsoft i don't think he can say that

lol, yeah

the latest updates made the browser alot more stable, but PS3 need Firefox (or at least chrome)

He says that because adding IE to the 360 would be even worse?

if you wanna test how good a browser is , visit VGChartz , when you do that on PS3's browser it takes awhile for the "Hot Topic" section to load unlike on Firefox.

This site is Flash heavy!!

but other sites works fine, so its not really as bad as he say it is.

i think they can't add IE for the reason of it being easily hacked.

It was all i had for awhile after my PC was attacked by viruses. At least it kept me going on the web. Also, I found the only site not worth visiting with it is vgchartz so many errors it freezes constantly.
