Why do I get the feeling that if this was Sony there would be 3 lawsuits filed by now? Anyways unbanning people who can potentially give them money isn't something I'd call righting a wrong, fixing their **** up yes.

Well MS didn't remove any features or get our information stolen.

These people were banned for less than a month and were fairly compensated. Simple as that.

No they just rip you off for online and made a console with a failurate of over half and lied about it for over a year. As for you information stolen how do you know? Does anyone really believe MS would come forward if they were hacked? 

Compared to PSN, Live is worth the money. Hardware warranties were extended for about 3 years. So I hardly felt ripped off.

Speculating Live could have been hacked is not a strong argument. I vaguely remember but I think Sony waited like a week before admitting the servers were hacked.

No it wasn't, one issue of many was extended to 3 years and again that was over a year and a lawsuit later. Also what makes live worth it? All it has is cross game chat and even if it was more secure (I'm not convinced it was) it isn't anymore. 

Sony was intouch with lawenforcement same day, it took them a week to figure out what was comprimised and then informed the public. MS on the other hand lied about the failrate for over a year and tried to cover it up but ultimately failed, what makes you think they wouldn't cover up a hack with more success? 


Nobody cares about the RROD and PSN hack; it's old news so move on. If you really think cross game chat is the only thing Live has over PSN, then you really need to get your head checked.

I tend to ignore little stuff like faster sync. When none of you are able to give specifics about the thing you just stated I think you are the ones that need your heads checked.

Ohh I don't know lets see. Faster downloads, no mandatory installs, less pointless downloads, you can play splitcreen with two different XBL accounts signed in at once, every single arcade game has a trial demo(same with Indy games), send voice messages, cross game chat(party chat), achievements sync right away into someone gamerscore, more stable service, etc. I could continue, but it would be pointless because you'll just come up with some excuse on how those features don't matter.

Haaa... ha ha ha!! Isn't this because "you get what you pay for"? :D

I always said that: never trust Microsoft all together. It's that easy.

It's not like LIVE was down a whole month for everybody.

Wasnt it nearly 2  months?

he fact that MS come out before anyone asked them is brilliant. Instead of hiding behind the curtains lik another company did.

Nice one MS. Thats how you do online service. :)

Not sure what you're getting at, but MS extended the warranties and made good on the hardware problems. Move on buddy.

Well its surprising to me how little content is offered on PSN. This might be because Sony hits publishers with bandwidth fees. Live as a whole just offers more content and features, its a better service.

You love to speculate. Truly a great quality.



Exactly MS would never lie to it's consumers and always takes care of them when they make a mistake
