1. hard drive

2. guide button in the middle of the controller

3. achievements

4. online structure (friends lists, invites, voice chatting)

5. downloadable content for movies and games

6. wireless controller

7. gears of war, halo

I will give you achievments, but lol @ the rest.treelog82

This

Sony was first, and they're better.

PSN/Home > LIVE/Netflix

And the games are better. I respect Microsoft, but I don't appreciate many things they are doing to the industry.

 gotta atleast give me hard drive and guide button in the middle of the controller, and look at how they try to model their online network. Come on you dont think they just thought all that up on their own did you?

The psp had the guide button. Think the PS2 had optional hd support but my memory's hazy and I guess it does'nt count.

PS2 had hdd support. Even if it wouldnt have, it was really the next logical step this gen, not some brillian innovative idea. If anything MS took a step back in this regard by not having a standard HDD in each 360.

Guide button. Once again logical next step. The Wii also has this.

Online structure. While PSN wouldnt be what it is today without competition from LIVE the functions you listed are only common sense to have for an online gaming network.

DLC for movies and games? Really? lol. Even the PS2 had dlc for games.

Wireless controller. Next logical step once again and has been around since last gen.

Gears and Halo? Unless you are trying to say Uncharted is a GeoW rip off because of its cover system. Even though many games had cover systems long before Gears was even a thought. Not to mention Uncharted is a platformer, puzzle solver, and shooter in one. Very different from Gears and its not even developed by Sony. As for Halo I dont know what your getting at.

Achievments? Yes trophies are a blatant rip off. MS really struck gold with achievements and it was a very original idea. I dont care for them, but many others do.

I would assume that "copy" would mean than Sony would not have done it if MS had not.

That leaves achievements which they blatantly copied at the request of their users. 

wireless 360 controller came before the nintendo gamecube wavebird(wireless)? I c.......

the fail is strong in this one.

Is this thread fail worthy?lagreendown

Most definitly.  Let's end this frivolous discussion.  One important point gleaned from it. (Achievements was an excellent M$ idea.)  Thanks for coming out.
