Nope, I have both, and Live blows away the PSN. Granted it is cool to be able to use any blue-tooth headset and talk on PSN, but I still like live better.

BTW, you there is no right or wrong and it is impossible to argue ppls opinons.



Consoles: Atari 5200, NES, SNES, N64, Dreamcast, PS2, Gamecube, Wii, Xbox 360, PS3

Put me for yes. When there was free gold weekend. I chose to skip it to play on my ps3.

not even in the same league...live will always be better.

So, you know the future... ¿¬_¬

When it comes to the quality of network services and the software to support it, you don't need a crystal ball to know sony is simply not cappable of putting out a product that is comprable to Live. 

and yet they have. Hmm weird.


PSN is the very core of the PS3?  No it's not... it will never be able to touch Live because of this... the 360 was build around Live... this is the diffrence that cannot be overcome ever on the PS3.  No amount of arguing will ever make up for the lack of integration.

Just saying that the 360 is built around Live doesn't make Live better. What does it do that makes it so much better? nothing.

let's see. Content, security, sablility, support, structure.  Look at this way, for every sony employee working on PSN, MS has two people who are more qualified and more experienced working on live.  And that's not a bad thing for sony, they don't charge for PSN so it gets what it gets.  There is nobody in the network and online software world that is looking to Sony to do the next great thing online, but everyone is looking to MS so that's where all the talent goes...well them and google. 

 

Which is why PSN will never be in the same league...Live will always be better.

You got it right, these are the 5 ways in which PSN is better.

Hardy har har.



PSN seems to be consistently one or two years behind Live, so I'm going to say no.



themanwithnoname's law: As an America's sales or NPD thread grows longer, the probabilty of the comment "America = World" [sarcasticly] being made approaches 1.

Yes... For starters, there aren't a bunch of self entitled d-bags all over PSN like there is on Xbox live.

And I can play online just as well as Live with others and it's Free. I don't have to pay $50 a year just to play with my friends online.

My pokemon brings all the nerds to the yard. And they're like, "You wanna trade cards?" Damn right, I wanna trade cards. I'll trade this, but not my charizard.

Have you used PSN?

My guess would be "No" he has not used PSN. 

I really don't get some of the reasons why some say the PSN is inferior.  Sure, you can't cross talk, whoopee doo.  But you also aren't paying $50 a year for the PSN.   Not to mention that PSN has Home for those who would want that. (Not really an advantage as I really don't use it at all).

Just look at one factor... Playing games online with your friends...   You can do that, and do it just as well as Live can do it.  And I don't have to pay Sony to play my friends online like one would for Live.

Yes, I've used both... Yes, I sold my 360 after the 13th red ring in less than 3 years.   Sony, it just works... Unlike the Xbox 360.

Wow, that is just blatantly false.
