Sony: Xbox Live is Static, 2D and Can't Match HOME

http://news.teamxbox.com/xbox/12974/Sony-Xbox-Live-is-Static-2D-and-Cant-Match-HOME/

Speaking to Three Speech, a sort of official unofficial PlayStation blog, a Sony spokesperson has provided some answers for those of use that claim the new Home service is simply a rip-off of Ninteno Miis, Second Life and Xbox 360 achievements. When asked if Home isn’t a rip-off of Xbox Live, the Sony representative said:

Home is a first of its kind 3D community that allows for open interaction between consumers, SCE and third party partners. It is a truly interactive, global community of users. Xbox Live is a static, 2D, text-heavy environment that can’t match the rich community features found in Home. Xbox Live community interaction is much more passive and limited to the members on that friend’s list.

Someone should tell this Sony representative you can send voice messages and have voice chat conversations; plus, when you get the Xbox Live Vision camera, you can also do video messages and chat.

After Sony's weak and cheap response, we still believe Home is just a copy of the best the Xbox 360 and Wii have to offer. To read more responses from Sony regarding Home,

Im sorry sony but there this other program called THERE which sonys home complete ripped off and is 100% the same thing just doesn't look as good.  http://www.there.com/ and has been out for like 7 yrs.

when will the damage control end :lol:

We get it 360 fans, you guys feel threatened, you don't need to shove it down our throats with your constant "Home is teh live wipoff :cry:" :lol:

Oh noes! The 360 dashboard is 2D? You know what? That *completely* ruins my online gaming experience, as well as my marketplace experience, and I mean, ffs my friend's list would be MUCH more efficient if it was 3D. Achievements are nice and simple, you have a gamerscore, you can check games, and you can check descriptions for achievements. I'd rather have 3 taps of the A button than have a virtual character looking at lame virtual trophies in a virtual apartment in which the money I'm spending to furnish the virtual apartment is not in the least way virtual.playwithfire17

D-D-D-D-Damage Control, but you left out the most important part ITS FREE. XBL=rip-off

I have LIVE, Home will be better than LIVE at it's current state. But who cares it's about the games.Riviera_Phantom

Wow. Technically Sony is right. Home is a 3d MMO based Service, while Live is more Text Based. Anyway, all you arguments don't matter as Sony already had those things on the Ps2.

And I'm Sorry. Xbox Live is a copy of Gamespy and Xfire, if you want to play the "Who Copied Who" Game

Xbox Vision is also a copy of Eye toy...

So, it really doesn't matter.
