Are you blinder than ray charles was?

No support for massive online games and then you state the ps3 is the only console with more than 25 players per game?

Tell ya what go google a little 360 exclusive called Frontlines which supported 50 players and sometimes more online.

Then you want to go as far as talking about psn being equal to livw let me tell you where psn fails.

Its a pain in the ass to connect with friends.If my friend is in the middle of a game of call of duty and i wanted to play lets say killzone.I cant cross game chat can i?I have to litteraly send a invite hope hes paying attention during his game to notice and i cant coax him into joining me with a chat no i gotta hope hes in the mood to play something else.

psn sucks i had a ps3 i know it was a project trying join my friends for gaming it was a joke.Bluray is a joke i have seen the movies 1080p over the new zune system and they look as good as bluray on my over 50" elite.Wifi sucks i always hard wire when it comes to gaming you dont take chances on your connection if your a serious gamer.The ps3 menu is a mess text text text and more text menus of text.Home is a joke everyone knows it its a poor excuse no better than a ripoff of all the moronic interbet has to offer join in to watch virtual charecters dance while 40 year old men chase fake 18 year old girls.And even there its a pain in the ass to chat you gotta preety much text everthing to be sociable.

Heres how the real experience goes for the real console system.

Boot up 360 and theres all my friends quickly invite to a party no matter what there playing.We all agree upon a game while there still playing what there playing i then click one button invite em all and we are gaming.

 

 

 

i get that the 360 online is better, but psn does not "suck" for any reason....wifi does not suck, most people use it as its better than having a 100foot cable go through the house....just because psn is not up to par with xbl does not mean you have to go around trolling, go on some other site to do that.



lol i love it people talking bout ps3 having a web browser!!! if i wanted to go on the internet i would turn on my pc and go on that not my console of choice, a console is for playing games not for going on facebook and crap

Im not trolling im correcting there is a difference.Example being it was stated that 360 didnt have games that supported more than 25 players i corrected that.The rest is opinion of which im enititled to.Are you saying that im not entitled to my own opinion?

As for running the 100 ft cable its simple move your router.Now a days people use high speed cable based connections the 360 goes where the tv is doesn it?There being a cable line there use a splitter and if your computer is elsewhere use wireless on the computer.After all your not going to be doing anything on your computer as demanding as gaming is on a connection.If you game on your pc well then you can choose which is more important live gaming or pc gaming or just move your pc to the same room.I never game over wireless its the wort decision you can make.

psn= sex with a blow up doll.
On the plus side you "plug in and go" and when you're done, there's no awkwardness afterwards, you don't even have to cuddle with it. Not to mention your doll is not a whore and as a result you won't have to compete with (many) others to get in there whenever you want.

On the downside...it's a blowup doll...it's not gonna talk to you before, during or afterwards (some people actually like that)

xbla= sex with a prostitute.

On the plus side, you know for a fact that it's another Human there with you and not some machine as they'll talk you and tell you all kinds of shit even allow you to have all sorts of kinky parties and what not.

on the downside, a good prostitute always asks for the money up front and because you know she's good at her job, she has "plenty of customers" who can sometimes take up a "bigger bandwith" than you.

Moral of the story?

Either way, you're getting laid. Choose which "sex" is better for you, enjoy it and move the fuck on, no need to wag your dick around around boasting about where it's been because either way you look like a dumbass.



PS One/2/p/3slim/Vita owner. I survived the Apocalyps3/Collaps3 and all I got was this lousy signature.


Xbox One: What are you doing Dave?

LOL going by the responses here:

Linux is free and highly functional, how many Linux users amongst the 'free and highly functional' crowd?

How many users using hand me down consoles and games as they are also free and highly functional?

How many users drinking tap water from a bottle because its free and highly functional?

How much are you willing to bet that you can replace 'free and highly functional' with 'functions on my console of choice'. I don't see the logic in something being free and highly functional making it better unless its a philosophy that is carried throughout other areas of their life.

when you say something "sucks" or is a "joke thats trolling, now saying that the online is not as good as 360 sounds better...oh and also, blueray is the future, like it or not, thats a big problem with HDDVD is that the 360 disk format does not have enough space to hold longer/better looking games....thats the reason why the 360 will never have uncharted or mgs4...so blueray does not suck, it only holds like 4 times the data dvd does....btw my own computer uses a wireless connection with a router and it is fine....



>Impulsivity said:
>10 things that make the PSN better.
Spin things much? Most of what you're using is opinion, and some of it is factually wrong. Let me analyze some of your points.

>1) it is 100% free and has the same capabilities as the 360
Not true. 100% free implies no costs ever. DLC has prices, thus making it incorrect. Because DLC exists on all of the systems, nobody offers 100% free access. Now, if I want to simply look around, any of them are free. Yes, there are some free features on PSN not offered on XBL. But that doesn't mean everything is free. As for the "same" capabilities, again, wrong. Each platform has different features not existing on the other. You go on to talk about Home on PSN. Yes, this isn't on XBL. That right there is a different capability.

>2) it includes a full internet browser.
And truthfully, it's not a big selling point. Internet browsers on consoles, well, suck. I don't care whether it's PS3 or Wii, PSP or DS. They all suck. As for your mentioning Linux, well, that's no longer applicable to newer models. Besides, if I were to do that, I'd want a computer with more control over its components, like, say, RAM.

>3) The PS3 has nearly unlimited space to store things and uses any 3rd party hard drive when you need more space.
Yes, it'll take any drive. But you better not need to change it. The first thing the PS3 wants to do with your new drive in it is format it. I do see where you come from on price, however, there was also that LE 360 with a 250 GB drive, thus there is an ignored size.

>4) The PS3 includes wireless, just like every modern electronics device other then the 360, which only has a 100 dollar adapter.
Yes, not including it was silly. But if you're going to allow 3rd party drives for the PS3, you also have to allow 3rd party Wi-Fi adaptors for the 360. And they can be found significantly cheaper. (For that matter, finding MS's own for under that $100 MSRP isn't hard either.)

>5) The 360 has no support for large scale gaming. All the big 360 games have small multiplayer matches (10-24 players) as the only choice
>available. There are multiple PS3 games that support upwards of 60 players currently. MAG, when it is released soon, will support over 10
>times more players then any 360 game.
Nice spin here on the wording. 24 players is not the system limit, rather, it's the largest that happens to have been made. And as for your PS3 supporting "upwards of", that does mean that every game does it. It's merely putting a focus on multiplayer, usually at the cost of single player. MAG is the perfect example of that- sure, it can do 256 players in game- at the cost of absolutely no single player mode. For someone like me, who prefers single player, this would be a selling point to the 360. So it's a preferential opinion in the end even still.

>8) Downloading and playing movies/games is also far easier, both because the PSN interface is better and because of not having to deal with the aforementioned points crap.
Again, the interface is an opinional view. I find the 360 one easier to use, but that's me. And the second half of this sentence was already mentioned as your ding in the 7th point. If you're going to give bulletpoints, don't double-dip.

>9) When you start up your PS3 your interface isn't nearly as cluttered with marketing junk.
Again, this is in the eye of the beholder. I also don't care for creed, but I see the interface as including a news section. X thing is availiable, and if X happens to interest me, I'm glad to know about it. (Oh, and you'll get this whether you pay or not.)

>10) If you had a 360 from Launch you would have spent over 250 dollars at a minimum for Xbox live.
Really?? 'Over X at a minimum' is a redundancy first of all. Secondly, you've failed at math class, as this is the 360s 5th year, so if you paid retail from the beginning, you would have paid $250. Not "over" this, nor is it a "minimum", as evidenced by the number of people who report paying about $30 per year. And I can't even assume that to be minimum at $150, because some people have seen them even cheaper than that! Sure, PSN hasn't charged for your time, but what if your friends are on XBL? Then it doesn't matter if you think the better games are on PS3; if you want to play with your friends, and they have a 360, it's not going to be an option. And again, your "opinion" of the worthwhile games can't be used as fact.
