please explain how the online capabilities of the ps3 suck because as far as im aware both ps3 and wii can both use the actual internet whilst also playing games online while the 360 can only play games

ow and that thing called home.....yeah its free aswell (when it comes out).
and theres also a T.V service that will stream to both PS3 and PSP, the only bad thing is that an add-on is needed to access this feature.
please notify me to what is free on xbox live, because as far as i know the only free thing is silver membership, and i beleive this doesnt let you play games online....
It's all to come in the near future for the PS3...Time is of the essance.
P.S. the wii owns all in its console sales..it is the console that is truly wining this so called "next gen console wars"!
(and to shush people: this is my opinion, i own both systems and these are my veiws on them..i personally think the ps3 is better..

This thread has died down, eh?
LoL.
I still think the Xbox360 isn't a true sequel, merely an Xbox1.5, to be honest. I've just gotten my hands on the demo for Ratchet and Clank, and I have to say, it's amazing. As I have mentioned before, my beef with the Xbox360 is that it is a half-a**ed product that is fundamentally flawed. We're not talking 'quirks' that you work around, but flaws that are a gamebreaking experience.
JamesToohey, making unqualified statements reeks of a lack of class. Back up your views.
The PS3 online service isn't the best thing in the world, but at least you can surf the net, and criticially, it's free to use. Again, why should MS charge for this service, when it makes god knows how much money every single year, and a company that is less financially well off (Sony) can do it for free?

Exactally, you what you pay for and Xbox Live is pretty cheap considering how much you get and the experience you get when playing on Xbox Live.
Xbox 360 has a simpler hardware build than a PS3(Close to a mid to high end computer) and is cheaper to make games for it. Also you get a bigger market to sell to when making games for the 360. Any 360 game can be ported to PC with a few tweaks and vise versa. Thus, more profit for developers and more games being made and more support.
The PS3 acts like a high end computer and is more expensive to make games for because of the blue ray format. Some 3rd party developers cant afford to make games for it because to the development costs.
UT3 will probably be the first game to actually put the blue ray format to good use with all the space the disc has.
Not many other PS3 games put that power of the PS3 to good use yet
I have a couple of replys to your post.
1. Who would be so sad to type that? Retard?
2. Grammer? Blue Ray...nooo (Blu-Ray)
3. No internet browser
4. PS3 does all that...and more FOR FREE
5. Microsoft is a bigger company than Sony, why can sony offer Home for free, because now zoidberg is the crafty consumer.
6. Your an idiot
1. I typed that because i was bored and it took 5 miunutes of my time
2. Blu-Ray and Blue ray are the same thing
4. You cant DL HD Movies or HD TV shows off PS Store
5.Microsoft was always like that, they always want more money and i dont mind paying a measly $59.99 a year for a great service
Please name one thing PSN has more than Xbox Live besides Home?
Linear Mode
