PushSquare: "We don't like posting about the XBOX 360 much. We appreciate Microsoft's system is a solid machine with an excellent range of games. We like games and although we have our preferences (obviously) our job isn't to judge which system is best, more help you to get the most of your system (which we're hoping is the Playstation 3 if you're on this site).

Having said that, we do keep note of what our favourite companies are saying about each other, and we can't help but notice a trend that allows Microsoft to get away with anything; and Sony nothing.

Take for example Microsoft's latest Japanese promotion - a piece of propaganda that calls the Playstation 3 inferior at every turn. The cover reads: "Xbox 360 over PS3 if you are picking multi-platform games". No exclusives to talk of this year Microsoft? The content is filled with quips such as "XBOX Live Arcade system - cheaper than the PS3?. In fact it even goes on to justify reasons why the, now inferior version of Tales Of Vesperia is, erm, "superior".

Now we know it's only marketing, and that's fine, but here's our point: the gaming community holds such a double standard towards Sony these days that we're 101% convinced if Sony had released this pamphlet we'd be sifting through hundreds upon hundreds of: "ZOMG Sony should focus on their own system not the competition, they should shut up, make some games, Sony sucks" comments. You've read the ones.

We haven't come across a single comment suggesting the same about Microsoft's tactics. Interesting eh?"
