PSN vs XBOX LIVE WHICH 1 IS BETTER

this forum is for people who have BOTH 360 and ps3.

comparing the 2 online services.

psn = free

360 = 50$

WINNER = PS3 (FREE IS ALWAYS GOOD)

psn = lots of amazing games (flower , tekken 5 ,stardust)

360 = ALOT more games but most of them are trash and OVERPRICED.

WINNER = PS3 (HAVING A SMALL GREAT GAME COLLECTION IS BETTER THAN HAVING A HUGE GARBAGE COLLECTION)

psn vs 360 soulcalibur 4 = they are practically identical with no lag if some1 has 4 or 5 bars.

WINNER = ITS A TIE. BOTH GAMES PLAY THE SAME ONLINE BUT ONE IS FOR FREE WHILE ANOTHER IS NOT.

psn vs 360 online exclusive games.

psn

1. resistence 2 = 0 lag + 60 mp matchs and the games does not take long to start

2. killzone 2 = u will find online lag and aiming lag in this game. but mp experience is amazing.

360

1. halo 3 = 1 of my fav fps but matches take long time to start.

2. gears 2 = my fav 360 game but online is so bad. sometimes it take up to 15 minutes for a wingman match to start.

WINNER = HANDS DOWN PS3. A FREE SERVICE PROVIDES GREAT GAME THAT RUN BETTER(WITH NO LAG) ONLINE THAN A NON FREE SERVICE. HALO 3 AND GEARS 2 SHULD BE FLAWLESS ONLINE WITH NO LAG SINCE THE ONLINE MP IS NOT FREE. SO BASICALLY THE BEST ONLINE GAMES FOR 360 LAAAAAAAAAG SO MUCH AND TAKE SO MUCH TIME FOR THE MATCH TO START YET THEY CHARGE U FOR IT.

psn vs 360 online experience.

i am no fan of ps home or the 360 avatars but ps home wins hand down on this.

WINNER = PS3. I DONT LIKE PS3 HOME BUT I THINK IT IS VERY CLEEAR THAT PS HOME WHIPS 360 AVATARS BUTT.

psn vs 360 applications.

360 can use msn messenger while ps3 can surf the net (so u can say this is a tie)

WINNER = ITS A TIE

online updates.

360 get demos usually a week or 2 weeks earlier than ps3 does. it is excpected since the service is not free.

WINNER = 360. 360 GET DEMOS EARLIER THAN THE PSN DOES.

FINAL VERDICT.

PS3 ONLINE is so much better with so much lesser lag in game and is FREE. better downloadable games and 20 mil psn subscribers compared to the 17 mill the 360 has. i am a new ps3 owner but the psn is so much better than 360 live yet u pay for 360. 360 live is the biggest rip off ive ever seen(THEY SHUD CHANGE IT FROM 360 LIVE TO 360 LAG). i think 360 live shud be the free one and sony shud start asking for money to play online since it is so much more superior to the 360 live. every single aspect of the online experience is almost better in psn. most of the online expirience on 360 live is ACTUALLY WAITING FOR A GAME TO START. the ps3 does not have this problem and yet it is free.

PSN > 360 live (ANY1 WHO SAYS OTHERWISE IS EITHER LYING TO HIMSELF OR NEVER COMPARED THEM BOTH FIRST HAND)

I own a PS3 and I will freely admit that Xbox Live is superior to PSN.

Since I hate paying for over priced crap, ill vote for PSN.

PSN quite obviously

i did this threat because i just recently got a ps3. all the BS lag stories i was hearing about the psn where lies. xbox live lag so much more compared to the psn.

I hate how 360 fanboys say with xbl you get what you pay for when in fact its just a big con.

There's no real difference, except for three things.

1. Everyone on XBL has a headset.
2. 360 has a nice party system.
3. PSN is free.

They're both Peer 2 Peer, both get the same demos, both have downloadable movies / tv shows and so forth. Its a moot debate really. If you have more friends on one over the other, thats the only obvious reason why one would be superior. I still think XBL is a shaft job though due to the fact that everything you get on Xbox Live Gold for $50, you get on XBL Silver for Free with the exception of online play which is peer 2 peer to begin with, oh and demos a week early.

I love these completely unbiased threads.

I prefer Live, because there's so many more things to Download/watch and demos are earlier generally.
Also DLC.

the thing is people want online mp. no one really care about surfing the net or msn messenger on consoles. every1 care abnout being able to PLAY online. ps3 does that for free. thats the only thing that matters in a console online service is being able to play online. i think microsoft is mocking us with the BS silver account.

XBL - more online games, better online features, faster and easier to use, centrally managed, better community, designed from the ground up for the best online gaming experience.

PSN - fewer online games, worse online features, harder to use, not centrally managed, worse community, cobbled together to try and copy XBL. But hey, it's free.

XBL is far better than PSN.

What a silly topic. Steam is much better than both of them. XD
