What does Xbox Live have that PSN doesn't? I seriously don't know, not being sarcastic
in-game voice chat, cross game parties and voice messaging is pretty much it
Yay?This topic is locked from further discussion.

Yay?Its the only one that stops you from playing online ranked matches if you don't have them installed ;)[QUOTE="clembo1990"][QUOTE="TheOwnerOner"]
Yes, and Halo is the only game in existence to have map packs
SpinoRaptor24
Wrong. You can still play online ranked matches without the paid map packs.
Yeah, just lone wolf
You can't even play team slayer
[QUOTE="PBSnipes"]
What does that have to do with XBL? Bungie is in charge of what maps are part of what playlist.

Not according to TC its all evil M$'s problem. But anyway TC next time your going to make a thread bashing Xbox live make sure that it doesn't have huge flaws in it next time that we can pick you apart over, because M$ is not to blame here, Bungie is. And even they aren't either because they want to make money after all, plus its not like you can't play Halo 3 online, its just that some games are restricted. So what either buy the pack and join the others, or don't and just have a limited game selection list. Either way you can still play the game so who cares?
Do you honestly think that MS does not control the pricing of content on their store?
Except for the little thing that psn gets errors and is alot less reliable, and the fact you private chat while in game, it's practically unusable.
fracot
Yeah, you keep thinking that :roll:
The legendary maps are going to be free soon, and you're crying because you can't play like 2 playlists? The Mythic map pack is worth the full $10 IMO thanks in part to Sandbox. Why don't you just wait for ODST: and get a brand new campaign with ALL the maps (plus 4 new ones)-RocBoys9489-
I can only play three playlists, I can't even play team slayer

You can play 4 actually. I counted:P Still wack though, I agree. You would think that they would atleast leave Team Slayer open for everyone.XBL still has nothing to do with that.. that is a purely Halo3 issue[QUOTE="Sword-Demon"][QUOTE="thelastguy"]
I am well aware of that BUT, not every playlist should have the maps included
thelastguy
MS controls the pricing of the map packs, so legendary should be free
And where did you pick that kind of information? :?[QUOTE="Ambli"]
Heroic maps are free.
My mistake, I meant legendary
Those aren't free yet? Hmm..yea I'm gonna have to side with ya on that one then, they should be able to bring you to matchmaking with your certain types of maps that you have to resolve that issue. Sorry to guys like you getting low-balled like that, then again I don't think you can link this to XBL but to Bungie's playlists you could probably message them on their website about it. Yea, just the cold storage, and heroic map packs are free. But you can create your own maps and play lists if you want and get people to join, it doesnt HAVE to be only the ones bungie has up. TC just wants to complain i think[QUOTE="moose_knuckler"][QUOTE="thelastguy"]Those aren't free yet?

I pay $60 for this service and can't even use it

Serioulsy, how can you NOT play with your friends on LIVE?? Its way easier than PSN (i know, i have one :P) you just create a playlist with the FREE MAPS, then you hit a button to invite your friends, they join, now you are playing on the FREE MAPS, if any of them have the paid maps, it doesnt matter because YOU chose the FREE maps. Either that, or you can choose a FREE map, and play in forge with your friends, which is also FREE.[QUOTE="thelastguy"][QUOTE="Sword-Demon"] XBL still has nothing to do with that.. that is a purely Halo3 issuelebanese_boy

I cannot play ranked games thoughYes you can. Lone wolfs (Free for all) and the MLG playlist are both ranked.thelastguy
true... and most psn games use dedicated servers... live doesnt (except for L4D) StealthKnifelol, it shows you are just repeating what you hear others say lol, "most" games on PSN dont use servers lol, in fact, the MAJORITY use p2p just like live, just the first party titles that happen to be shooters use dedicated servers. But for every one that use it, there is one on LIVE that use it, so its a wash. PSN is setup like last gen online games, thats why they rely on servers, where as MS has the ALL THE SERVERS that Live runs on, and THEY maintain them, which is why we pay. So just imagine that every game on PSN that use servers, were ran by sony, instead of the dev. That is why Live is so streamlined, and why any little changes to the service are supported by EVERY game, past , present, and future. Its because all games plug into MS's Servers and Service. Fanboys need to wake up!!
true... and most psn games use dedicated servers... live doesnt (except for L4D) StealthKnifeNo they don't! :x It's only 1st/2nd party Sony games that use dedicated servers.
Yes you can. Lone wolfs (Free for all) and the MLG playlist are both ranked.[QUOTE="thelastguy"]I cannot play ranked games though
killerfist
With lone wolf I can't play with friends and on the MLG ones I would get owned
Pure milkage.
I bought my 360 last week with a gold membership and Halo 3
Well, I discover today that out of the 15 matchmaking playlists, I am only able to select 3 of them because I do not have the Legendary or Mythic map packs
In my opinion that is disgusting. I paid for the game and a live membership, but now I can't even play half of the game. This is absolutely ridiculous.
Sure LIVE has more features overall, but the PSN is far superior when it comes to value
thelastguy
Aw there there princess, there's no need to cry. The solution is simple, buy them and quit whining.....
