Live Party seems more seamless then Home

With the new XBox experience, Live party allows up to 8 friends to go everywhere on the 360 together....if they all have the same game. Apparently its very seamless with little to no waiting.

Correct me if im wrong here, but Home seems tedious as you all have to meet up in an apartment or the "warhawk lobby" or whatever and then go into a game. It just seems like it takes up too much time for a bunch of people to get into a game together.

i dont know, thats just me.

Ghos....

Marcu....

Fact of the matter is your bashing it as its on PS3

thats also a feature?

didnt know that. very nice!

I could careless for HOME, not sure why Sony is investing so much time in it....but anyways I like the traditional method of doing things, popping in a game, being able to see what room your friend is playing in, then jumping right into it. the end.W1NGMAN-

I agree. Home sounds like a pain in the a**.

Me too, I do see Home as being a good place to meet up though. Almost like a private channel with stuff to do while your waiting for that one friend who has the weak bladder and always needs to use the bathroom at the last minute.

When did that change? Either way I'm going to be hitting up this incredible service seeing how my wife and I can stop buying movies seeing how we'll have over 10,000 to choose from whenever we want. :)

So based on everybodies response........Live Party and the 8 way private chat are just some examples that are really gonna imprrove Live.

So if Home from a gaming standpoint isnt as fast as Live Party and if its used for non-gaming social purposes, how come cows believe Home will elevate PSN to Lives level.........when the New Xbox experience only aims to WIDEN the gap?

it astounds me.

Meh. I dont see how either of them are all that brilliant.

I believe PSN is already better than Live.

It's free, supports bigger games, lets me access my PS3 remotely via PSP, has an internet browser, less DRM, and overall more features. And I'm estimating within 6 months more people actually playing games on it.
