how is xbox live that much better than psn?

u can party up and do cross game chat... big woop, i can party up on a phone if i wanted to that bad for cross game chat. and apparently xbox live is waaaaay better than psn because u get updated vidoes of stuff like ign strategize... big deal, just use the internet for that... or even ps3's internet browser:P.

lemmings can defend their precious xbox live because they think its a "quality service". but its obviously a rip off.

it all comes down to playing games online and psn is just as good as xbox live, but its free.

I think everyone agrees it has an edge. But hardly anyone is saying it's an edge worth $60.

why does this bother you cows so much. why do you constantly have to have argument. you have your free service just enjoy it and shut it

I cant believe Sony doesn't have cross game chat for the PS3. I don't know what i would do without cross game chat. It makes playing online a lot better being able to talk to friends on different games. All you people saying this is stupid or big woop are just straight up in denial or have no friends.

MS gets $50-$60 per year per every Master account on every 360 . The math is like 35,000,000+ x $60 = $2,100,000,000 every year for MS now. I would hope that a company that's getting over 2 billion annually could make their online service better.

It's just better integrated with everything. On the PS3 you get most of the same functionality but it's layered on top or broken out in pieces. On the 360 it's just sort of there. I would argue that it's not worth $50 more than what the PS3 has, but it is better. Cross game chat also makes voice chat with Wii games possible, although you do have to juggle some cords to do so. But you can actually make Monster Hunter Tri playable!DJ_Lae

Its made by Microsoft. Of course Xbox Live is better. But I still like the PSN because it is free.

Xbox live IS better imo and I own both consoles

but is it 60 euro better? no, it is not

why wouldn't I want to talk to my friends while playing a videogame?

that cell phone excuse is golden though. would probably end up costing even more money that way. but I guess for those who get all of their expenses taken care of by their parents, that wouldn't be a problem?

That's cool. I mean, having a feature is better than not... But not having the feature for free is better than having it for $60 a year. I can always just use my phone for that.ianuilliam

I'd say it has an edge ONLY because it comes with mics. So more people to socialize with. If you want to chat with friends you have to have payed $60 for a mic AND you have to be playing the same game. I have both xbox live and psn and I have to say if you are social then xbox live is the better choice. Other than that it's the same.

because not everyone operates on the same plan or network.

[QUOTE="campzor"][QUOTE="babybinky"] it ONLY comes with a mic if u pay for the 250 gig xbox, which is another rip off imo... nice try babybinky

If it's crappy why did you get it? :?

again, why wouldn't I?

we sure as hell talked to eachother when we were kids playing videogames on the N64/PS2/PC, all in the same room. what's the difference here?

If I'm playing Halo, I'll talk to my friend, who is also my teammate, while being able to talk to my other friend(s) playing a different game.

If I'm not in party chat, my Mic, 95% of the time doesn't even get used. so I wouldn't be communicating with my team either way.

[QUOTE="babybinky"][QUOTE="campzor"] i thought every single 360 comes with a mic?...ohthemanatee

[QUOTE="ohthemanatee"]

[QUOTE="babybinky"] mine didn't.. i got the crappy 4gb xboxbabybinky

If it's crappy why did you get it? :?

so you bought a console for one game and now you're having buyer's remorse?

Live is slightly better than PSN, but not 60 bucks a year better.

[QUOTE="babybinky"] i just wanted to play halo lol, i wasn't going to use 250 gigs for stuff... i use my ps3 for movies and stuff... so yeah, i thought the 4gb xbox was a good deal until i found out u can't use fileshare, coop, and theatre mode in halo... im not flunking out another $100 for a harddrive just for that...babybinky

so you bought a console for one game and now you're having buyer's remorse?

i kinda know the feeling, I was pissed when I bought my PS3 slim and learned that it didn't had Backwards compatibility with the PS2

had to buy a PS2 slim again -_-

It is cool to private chat in games but not $60 worth. LOL.

Like LP from TECHNOBUFFALO said, "it's the very principle behind it, why should I pay for a service when I can get practically the same type of service for free...on the other platforms." And then he explains why most of his friends, who are both casual but at the same time enjoy a little online play on certain core games like MW, prefer the PS3 for the free PSN.

It's this very principle that disturbs Cows and PS3 owners (myself included) and provokes alot of them (myself included) to laugh their butts off about this greed infested service that Lemmings so proudly swear by :lol:

DLC and playing with friends is ALL you really need, right?

What could you possibly want more in a goddamn gaming service??? :lol:

so what you're saying is because you don't want to pay for something you'll bother other people that are ok with it?

real mature there

doesn't really change his argument though

it's still not very pratical

Yes a lot of the times my cousins will be in the party as well as my friends so thats 5-7 people total. I don't suffer from severe ADD so i can concentrate on my games while carrying on conversation also. Playing games in solitary confinement doesnt fly with me like some people.
