Oh yeah, and avatars are completely pointless

 

I wouldn't say pointless but under-utilized.



 

Evan Wells (Uncharted 2): I think the differences that you see between any two games has much more to do with the developer than whether it’s on the Xbox or PS3.

They mostly kept to their claims, though they weren't actually that bold claims

I am still disappointed we haven't seen South Park

Oh, and Netflix sucks, I can't use it at all, because for M$ the world is basically America

 

NetFlix not being avaible outside of the US is not Ms Fualt......It's Netflix.....NetFlix is american Based..So they have yet to Expand to other countries....And Sony used "MoneyHat" with Movie companies they own...But the Reality is that with Nextflix you get a cheap rental service to use over XBL..PSN is 1.99 per Movie rental...If you Rent 10 movies a month you pay 20 bucks while Netflix on XBL is Only 8.95..And you can Watch way more than 10 Movies a Month....

MS delivers!

I can bet you I won't buy 1 vs 100, and I don't care about things like Netflix unless M$ can get some sort of service which effects me

I am not going to completely disagree with you here but to even hint that Netflix's instant view is anything close to what is available on the Video Marketplace and/or the PSN Video store couldn't be further from the truth. The selection is decent, but it is far from great. I have been saying this since Netflix was announced on 360. 

Remember, PS3 owners too can pay that same $8.95 and rent movies through the mail. What 360 owners get is just instant view... for almost double their regular Netflix subscription cost, which comes with instant view free by default.

 



iPhone = Great gaming device. Don't agree? Who cares, because you're wrong.

Currently playing:

Final Fantasy VI (iOS), Final Fantasy: Record Keeper (iOS) & Dragon Quest V (iOS)     

    

Got a retro room? Post it here!

It appears one promise can be scratched from that list. Bethesda just announced that fall out dlc is coming to PS3. Linky is in dutch, use a translator if you want the details:http://tweakers.net/nieuws/60242/bethesda-brengt-fallout-3-dlc-naar-ps3.html



PSN name: Gazz1979 (feel free to add me, but please put your Vgchartz name in the message!)

And Sony used "MoneyHat" with Movie companies they own. Is the reason that the Selection is not a big as it could have been....

And I don't think there is an extra fee to use Netflix over the 360...I would have to ask my friend who has it...

 

Or even better....This is from the Netflix site

 

Xbox 360

starting from $199 MSRP

The Xbox 360 is the only game console that lets members instantly watch movies & TV episodes streamed from Netflix on the TV. This is available to Netflix members who are also Xbox LIVE Gold members for no additional Netflix fee. In addition, the Xbox 360 offers more than 400 video games, a unified online gaming network, and a variety of entertainment features.

  • Plays video games and standard DVDs
  • Connects to the Internet via an Ethernet cable, or optional WiFi adapter (additional purchase required)

Already have an Xbox?

To watch instantly on your Xbox, you need the following:

  • A high speed Internet connection
  • An Xbox Gold LIVE membership
  • A Netflix unlimited plan

If you have these, go to your Xbox menu, download and install the Netflix application from within the Video Marketplace, then go www.netflix.com/activate to activate your device. It's that simple.

I still won't use it. Anyway, making something relevent a year after its first implimentation is not a great idea in my opinion
