- Ok,let me explain thing for you.These are replys to what you just said
1:There is alotm ore features then that I know but like I said before the only one I find useful is the cross game chat. That doesnt justify me personally paying $50/year to play online.
2:Did i ever say PSN is bad?No i didnt.XBL is just alot better.And you have to admit that. No sir you did not and yes I agree 110%
3:What do you expect genius.It is a fanbase.But wont wont find as much fanboyism then many other forums.And if you disagree,give more proof. I agree with you for the most part. I just like games and hardware so they are both awesome. And yes I'm a retarded genius lol.
4:Sony made a mistake with the PS3.They shouldnt have made it blu ray(it costed them 3 years of losing money and there fanbase).NPC has confirmed that 360 does have twice the size of PS3's.And PS3 is cheaper now so that isnt an excuse.BTW,tradesquare confirmed that 360's failure rate is below 10%.FACT I'm gonna have to disagree with you sir. Sony made the right decision by including the blu-ray drive. I agree that it hurt them in the short term but just like investing in the stock market they are in it for the long haul and it WILL do them good you'll see. Sony predicts the PS3 to have a 10 year life span. Lets say an epic role playing game is originally designed for the PS3 (like FF13) and it requires 2 DL blu-ray disks? Whats MS gonna do put it on 10 disks? Not happening. MS made the mistake of using a DVD drive and thats a fact. The failure rate now may be 10% after the falcon and jasper revisions came out. The original design was much higher unfortunately and I have suffered a total of 4 rrod and never one PS3 failure and I bought it first.
5:WRONG.I dont know about you but im pretty sure 90% of gamers wont buy a gaming console for 600$ WRONG!!....well sorta I bought my PS3 for $500 lol
6:Yes,i thought you would laugh indeed
7:Halo is a wonderful series if you hate it or not.Shooter's wouldnt be like today if it wasnt for Halo.Each Halo gmaes has gotten great scores and praise.It isnt a peice of shit.KOTOR was known to be the best RPG last gen.PS2 had RPG's but they didnt match up to KOTOR. WRONG! Goldeneye 64 set the pathway for shooters and you can thank Nintendo for that Like I said before I never played KOTOR nor did I have an original XBOX but I'm sure its awesome.
8:Many members here do use factual evidence alot.A few members can be pretty biased but not everyone.If you disagree,give me proof. I agree for the most part but with this factual evidence needs to be trustworthy websites and not a bunch of youtube videos made by biased people. As my speech teacher in college always use to say, "Give me 3 CREDIBLE sources and I will believe you."
If you are going to argue and bash people here,then this site isnt for you. I have not one time bashed any member here. In fact you were the one who asked if I was stupid on more than one occasion. If I seem like I'm arguing its not exactly the case. I just like to view the world through unbiased eyes and considering this is literally a PS3 fanboy bashing thread I just gave my unbiased outlook on the situation. *back on topic* The fee for Live is ridiculous. You have one of the most profitable and largest computer companies charging for an online service. Give me a break. I'm not saying its not the best because it is but its just a bunch of BS to charge people to play their already expensive games online. I guess thats my point. | |

Actually with update speeds, you have to enable this feature on your PS3 that will make it tap into your network and download faster, I forget its name, but search "faster PS3 downloads" in youtuebe. | |

Your choice. | |

Why would you or me be a host when paying $50/year? Shouldn't MS be the host? Look I'm done with this thread. You guys can keep justifying the cost of Live but I prefer not to have to pay for parking when I go eat at a restaurant. Parking should be included in the price. | |

| Well, I pay for 2 accounts a year. So that's 100 dollars for me. i still find it worth it. With the benefits and what not.
You get:
-Cross game Chat -XBL party system -Cross game invites -Ingame music -Better organized friendslist -Last FM -1080p movie streaming service -Voice messaging -Rep system -Exclusive Demos, and exclusive/timed exclusive DLC -Dual login support. -etc | |

Look I'm done with this thread. You guys can keep justifying the cost of Live but I prefer not to have to pay for parking when I go eat at a restaurant. Parking should be included in the price. *Sigh* It's not the connection that makes XBL better. It's the features. Like Cross Game chat, XBL party system, cross game invites, voice messaging, etc. If you are the type of player that always plays with their friends, then you would know how convinient these features can be. Paying 4 dollars a month is NOTHING anyways. WOW users pay 15 dollars a month to play one online game. | |

1:There is alotm ore features then that I know but like I said before the only one I find useful is the cross game chat. That doesnt justify me personally paying $50/year to play online. So basically, you are a minimalist and think PSN offers enough features to meet your criteria. For others, especially those you play with their friends constantly, find Cross-Game chat, the party system, Cross-game invites, Voice messaging, and a more organized friendlist VERY convinient. Now let's talk about competitive gaming and the community. First off, the PSN community is way too silient. In a game of MW2 on PSN i played last night, onl 2 or 3 people had mics, it felt like I was playing against AI bots. Second, PS3 has almost NO competitive online gaming I can think of. Maybe gamebattles, but Xbox Live has always been the center of attention for GB.
2:Did i ever say PSN is bad?No i didnt.XBL is just alot better.And you have to admit that. No sir you did not and yes I agree 110% Um...Okay?
3:What do you expect genius.It is a fanbase.But wont wont find as much fanboyism then many other forums.And if you disagree,give more proof. I agree with you for the most part. I just like games and hardware so they are both awesome. And yes I'm a retarded genius lol. You seem to like to rip on the 360 alot. I understand some people on this forums have an unrealistic hate for the PS3, but come on.
4:Sony made a mistake with the PS3.They shouldnt have made it blu ray(it costed them 3 years of losing money and there fanbase).NPC has confirmed that 360 does have twice the size of PS3's.And PS3 is cheaper now so that isnt an excuse.BTW,tradesquare confirmed that 360's failure rate is below 10%.FACT I'm gonna have to disagree with you sir. Sony made the right decision by including the blu-ray drive. I agree that it hurt them in the short term but just like investing in the stock market they are in it for the long haul and it WILL do them good you'll see. Sony predicts the PS3 to have a 10 year life span. Lets say an epic role playing game is originally designed for the PS3 (like FF13) and it requires 2 DL blu-ray disks? Whats MS gonna do put it on 10 disks? Not happening. MS made the mistake of using a DVD drive and thats a fact. The failure rate now may be 10% after the falcon and jasper revisions came out. The original design was much higher unfortunately and I have suffered a total of 4 rrod and never one PS3 failure and I bought it first.
Do you REALLY want to know the truth about Blu-ray on the PS3? The PS3 NEEDS Blu-ray. Whenever the RSX can't handle the workload, developers decide to make the textures be streamed off the disc. There is also a process called "Data Duplication" which alot of developers use in order to maintain a consistant framerate. God of War 3, which was 7 hours long and had no replay value, took a whopping 35 GBs off of a dual-layered Blu-ray disc. So in reality, Blu-ray and the Cell are mostly used to compensate for the lack of horsepower on the RSX graphics card. The Xenos has the eDRAM chip which takes a good porportion of the workload off of the GPU as well. Not to mention the Xenos has lossless compression abilities that can save 3 times the space with little to negligible quality loss. But I'm not going to be a fanboy, there ARE advantages to Blu-ray. One of them would be that it could hold more cinematics. Which is the case for FF13 and MGS4. FF13 was 40 GBs uncompressed, 32 GBs were cutscenes alone. Luckily most game developers (Like Bioware) use ingame cinematics which don't take anywhere near as much space. Most games fit fine on one disc, the ones that don't will either have a mandatory installation disc for extra content (Forza 3), or just make it to where disc swapping is needed. Which isn't anywhere near as bad as PS3 fanboys keep trying to make it sound.
Main point: PS3 needs Blu-ray. The 360 doesn't.
5:WRONG.I dont know about you but im pretty sure 90% of gamers wont buy a gaming console for 600$ WRONG!!....well sorta I bought my PS3 for $500 lol
6:Yes,i thought you would laugh indeed
7:Halo is a wonderful series if you hate it or not.Shooter's wouldnt be like today if it wasnt for Halo.Each Halo gmaes has gotten great scores and praise.It isnt a peice of shit.KOTOR was known to be the best RPG last gen.PS2 had RPG's but they didnt match up to KOTOR. WRONG! Goldeneye 64 set the pathway for shooters and you can thank Nintendo for that Like I said before I never played KOTOR nor did I have an original XBOX but I'm sure its awesome.
Halo brought health bounding meters and one button grenade. Which EVERY modern shooter uses today. Including PS3 exclusives like Killzone and Resistance.
8:Many members here do use factual evidence alot.A few members can be pretty biased but not everyone.If you disagree,give me proof. I agree for the most part but with this factual evidence needs to be trustworthy websites and not a bunch of youtube videos made by biased people. As my speech teacher in college always use to say, "Give me 3 CREDIBLE sources and I will believe you."
If you are going to argue and bash people here,then this site isnt for you. I have not one time bashed any member here. In fact you were the one who asked if I was stupid on more than one occasion. If I seem like I'm arguing its not exactly the case. I just like to view the world through unbiased eyes and considering this is literally a PS3 fanboy bashing thread I just gave my unbiased outlook on the situation. *back on topic*
The fee for Live is ridiculous. You have one of the most profitable and largest computer companies charging for an online service. Give me a break. I'm not saying its not the best because it is but its just a bunch of BS to charge people to play their already expensive games online. I guess thats my point.
Not going to even try. If you haven't figured out that XBL is worth it in the long run for alot of hardcore gamers, then I can't I help you. If you don't like it don't buy it simple as that. Stop trying to make Microsoft sound like a Nazi corporation.

are you serious? You guys are a bunch of fanboys yourself but you want to constantly rip on the PS3 "fanboy" community. Give me a break. I guarantee most of you were Sony fanboys in the PS1 and PS2 days. Now the 360 is out and you turn your back on the company that brought THE BEST games for years. Go find a thread here listing all the features's.
Are you stupid?For everytime PSN releases a new feature,XBL has too.So they will always play Catch up.
You really want me to show you N4G and PSU to prove my point about Ps3 fanboys being the worst?Cause i will.
You need to think before you type.It doesnt matter at all if people hre used to be PS fanboys.This is 7th Generation.Not 6th or 5th.PS3 was a HUGE dissapointment compared to the PS2.PS3 fanboys are insecure abouit there console,they are the scum of the gaming industry.
"You guys are truning your backs on Sony".Rofl!!!
Oh noes,we all betrayed them lmao
I didnt see PS2 or PS1 bring great shooters and RPG's like Halo and KOTOR.Yes,PS2 had wonderful game,s but so did Xbox.
If we are so bad,why are you here?Answer that.And dont make pathetic excuses
Oh and BTW,I used to be a Nintendo fan or "fanboy".I am still a Nintendo fan though. I lol'ed when you said ''Did I see the PS2 and PS1 bring great RPG's?'' Are you serious? Thats obsurd. 1) Disgaea 2) Xenosaga 3) Final Fantasy X 4) La Pucelle Tactics 5) Dark Cloud 6) Kingdom Hearts 7) Dual Hearts Final Fantasy X-2 9) Legend of Legaia 2 (that was a PS2 game, right? And don't get me started on the PS1 Final Fantasy VII, Wild Arms, Suikoden, Grandia, and Saga Frontier. Shooters I'm not to sure about but RPG's? Please. PS1 and PS2 had it made there. But its true, $50 isn't much for what it offers. And Sony has been hinting that it wants you to pay a fee for additional features, not for the entire thing. |

| I have no problem paying 50 bucks a yeah. Great features, and one of the big things i like over PSN is the Live intigration with the NXE. But the updates are faster, downloads are faster, and more poeple online. |

| - Even though it's more people online on XBL, ya'll act like it's not enough on PSN . No console defending or shit, iLike every console .
iDon't really see the logic in paying 50 more bucks . For something that is almost IDENTICAL on the ps3 .
Only thing is Cross-Game Chat, Party-Chat, and the Live inter. w/ NXE .
Which, is not worth 50 . 10 more bucks, that's a new pair of Vans and 15 and that's a pair of DC's . | |

O and you forgot "Can you game with fame?" lol I'm sure some ps3 fanboys have played on it. The thing is there are several kinds of fanboys: fanboys who worship Sony- who will tell everyones sonys consoles are the best no matter what fanboys who love the graphics - uncharted 2 has some of the best console graphics and graphics is all they care about so ps3s their favourite fanboys who like the 1st party games - they know ps3 has less games but the games it does have are more to their taste so even if they have played xbl, any of those reasons could apply to them as to why they say 360 or xbl sucks. | |
