Debatable, but ultimately irrelevant. That has no more to do with "caring about the gamer" than Gillette's release of a four-blade disposable razor has to do with "caring about the shaver." They do these things to try to make as much money for themselves as they can: they come no closer to caring about the gamer than a rancher cares about his hogs. Shoot, both of these companies are on record as stating that they only entered the gaming market to gain control of the television, so that they can monopolize access to other forms of entertainment.

I can do way more with my PS3 as a media center by the way. It seems to support far more video files and you can even copy stuff straight to the system. The PS3 also tends to have anything the 360 gets an app of.

So...PS3 has more Netflix use, Blu-Ray, 7.1 DTS Master-Audio support. Meanwhile, you have to pay a yearly price just to unlock most of the entertainment features on 360.


So... 360 has Xbox Live Gold Netflix use, DVD and CD, 5.1 DTS Master Audio support. Meanwhile, you have to pay a yearly price just to unlock most of the games features on the PS3.


ps3 does have DVD, as well as blueray. and no, you dont have to pay to unlock "most of the game features" if your talking about PS+. then your paying for discounts, free games and early access to beta's and more stuff. tell me, which one sounds like a better "entertaiment console", i get what your trying to say lol but its just mostly wrong what you pointed out

PS3 is used more for streaming, has built-in Blu-ray and a higher software attach rate.
What is this?

I think Sony cares about the gamer much more than Microsoft ever has.

On the theory that 0.01% > 0.001%?


He's kinda right. Sony takes far more risks with games, and creates far more than Microsoft would ever think to create. Their mind marketwise is squarely on the avid gamer and that can help but it can also hurt on a massive scale.


Yeah but when you task risks and don't follow up with money and marketing you become a murderer. What is the kill count on studios Sony has put down over the past few years?

But hey as long as some fan boys can say we have more games then you every thing is OK. I am never seen a fan base of anything brag about something and not buy it as much as Sony fans do.
