Upon the announcement of PSHome for the PS3, Microsoft has rushed out with their competitive version: CardboardXBox. Each member will have their own homeless avatar that will have the ability to beg for virtual change, pee in virtual pickle jars, and get beat up at night by virtual drunken fratboys. It would have been a better community, but MS loves to rush things to release.Remind me whos in third?

Tell me, WHICH console came out with no AAA game, a half-baked online with no unified friends list, no scaling firmware (oh, it had the hardware, but hardware ain't worth a damn without the firmware), no rumble, and now two games that were deemed unredeemable and reduced to download-only?

That's not a sign of being rushed; they just need to contract better manufacturers to make 360s. Believe me, I have my own rants about the 360, but it wasn't an incomplete product at launch. It suffered from defective quality control at the manufacturing level, but the 360, when it worked, provided a complete experience at launch that has only improved. The PS3 HAS NOT provided a complete experience yet. When you're missing KEY FEATURES like resolution scaling, unified online, etc., THAT is a sign of being rushed, especially when you rush around after launch to fix those problems as fast as possible but still somehow always miss something ("Yeah, we'll support scaling. But developers will have to support a wonky 900x1080 resolution for their games because we don't know how to implement vertical scaling just yet!"). Hell, the scaling thing alone is hard evidence that the PlayStation 3 itself was NOT FINISHED when it was released. Then there's the whole issue with PS2 games looking like utter crap on the PS3. THAT was certainly more evidence of being unfinished. The 360's BC absolutely tanks, but only because it supports a few games. For those games it does support, at least the 360 actually upscales original Xbox graphics to HD, adds AA, better load times, etc., because the 360 was designed from the ground up to support that kind of BC model. It totally sucks that it only supports like 300 games, but the Xbox didn't have much going for it anyway beyond Halo and KotOR and a few others, and MS knows that. But the PS3? First they go with hardware BC, and when that doesn't work because it makes PS2 games look like crap, they change their mind and go with software BC for Europe, and in the process they cut the number of games they support from 8,000 to 1,000. Yeah, that sure is evidence that the PS3 wasn't rushed. At least MS stuck to its core design from beginning to end. The PS3 right now just looks like a hodge-podge of roundabout hotfixes that are all meant to be only temporary.
