Not all of the stuff in your list is exclusive to the PS3.

whitetiger3521

Who cares? I doesnt have to be exclusive but alot of stuff is exclusive

almost none of it is exclusive.

Self owned for the 19 of the 20 best points for owning your system not being games.

Also good online >> free online.

Who doesnt like trailors or game demo's? I think it's a great feature. Also fyi there is at least 10 exclusive features on that list.

Free>Fee's

Not when free ='s something no one would pay for. No universal friends list, not widely supported voice chat and games that will have online for 360 but not PS3 FTL.

I'm tired of Lemmings bragging about Xbox live, the only difference is you can send voice messages, and that will be present on PSN as well with a simple download. The meat and potatoes are there, so what make XBL so much better to cost 50 bucks when PSN is free. And I'm sick of hearing about achievements, its nothing more than a high score. Does achievements unlock extra content in a game, does it enhance gaming experience? no So stop bragging about it, no one except Lemmings care about achievements.

As far as I can tell, I don't really need any of those, it only adds up to the price. What I really want are games... that's why I chose a 360.

You're talking out of your arse, PSN has unified friends lists and those other features are not worth 50 dollars. Also voice messages will be available to PSN through download. Soon enough, we'll have the same features as PSN but for free. 360 sucks, its Dreamcast 2. After Halo 3, what is their to play, a bunch of PC ports, no thanks.   When Halo 3 is over 360 is dead, get over it.

I don't use live, so I'm not gonna tell anything about it. But about the achievements: IT DOES enhance gaming experience. Ask about any Xbox owner, instead of bashing it when you never really got into it.

First off, I don't plan on ever being Nr.1, I like the fact that I accomplished something that not many other people can do. AND I got proof. Another thing then: What is the point of playing live? Cause you'll never going to be Nr.1 either.

I don't think that just because Sony manufactures something doesn't mean it's automatically great, let alone "The Best". Espescially not just because someone says so. I think you'll be able to find people that will think it's terrible for that exact same reason that you think it's great. But then again it's SW so I guess we run into you folks now and again who think they're just plain right.

There are alot of advantages of it being built in, Plus Sony is giving it to you for a very reasonable price.

So for the very few exclusive reasons you list.. is it worth paying 200 dollars more for a game console without games?

AS A REASON TO BUY THIS!!!, I really dont want it in my console, and its the only reason its the most expensive console, WHY DID THEY PUSH THIS DOWN the throats of consumers??? cant they just have it as an add-on for some hundred dollars???

I think you need to move on

There are alot of advantages of it being built in, Plus Sony is giving it to you for a very reasonable price.



to take the full advantage of a Blue ray player, im going to need a large HDTV capable of outputting 1080p, and im sure as you know, they arent exactly cheap, plus, the jump in quality, it is great but it is definately not necessary to move on as you say, have you seen an upscaled DVD in 720p? it looks fantastic in my opinion, it looks superb, now tell me, why would  should i, AT THIS POINT IN TIME, not in the future, spend 600 + 2k+ for a decent 1080p set, for some more vibrant colors and less jaggies that i would notice marginally, when my upscaler looks fantastic? please provide me with some logic as to why i need a blu ray player at this time, and honestly even if it is winning, its only from the ps3 sales, and even so i do not fully know the fate of it, i think the best thing to do at this point is wait and watch everything unfold before i start making large purchases, im not saying ill never buy a ps3 before i die, theres a high possibility i would in the future, but now is an iffy time to do this.
