What's the difference when it comes to online gameplay between PSN and XboxLive?

[QUOTE="clone01"][QUOTE="campzor"]that has what to do with gameplay?campzor

XBL has a few extra features.Cross game chat for example,which is great.

Other than that..Nothing.

[QUOTE="campzor"][QUOTE="clone01"] Quite a bit actually. Have you used it? Judging from your signature, I'm guessing no.clone01

I think he means the actual gameplay, like connections and lag and such, with those there is no difference.White_Dreams

The fuss is over the fact you do alot more than simply game online. You talk to friends, you watch/play content, you interact with the online community ect. Xbox Live does all of these things 100% better than PSN.

There is no difference at all, some lems just say that xbl is superior to justify that they pay for something everyone else gets for free

[QUOTE="clone01"] PSN has party chat?tormentos

Parties are something you can do in a game. And outside of a game for that matter.

Same thing with cross game invites and chat. Implemented at the OS level and works in ALL games with no need to start a separate app to take advantage of its features.

It more than meet the criteria.

Not really no. This topic is about the actual gameplay itself. Like lag and such. This is not about features.

When I want to invite a friend or better yet a NON FRIEND on ps3 it is a hassle, a headache, on the 360 its very easy to do.

There is a huge difference if you play with friends when you compare the two.

I have both PSN and Xbox Live and Xbox LIVE is clearly superior in everyway. The only thing great about PSN is its free to play online. But everything else including content, usability, speed, etc is very bare bones and lackluster.

[QUOTE="campzor"]the difference is this much clone01

XBL has a virtual 3d interactive community like PS HOME?

Tit for tat...

Don't konw why so many lemmings act like XBL is the only online service with exclusive features,

really its actually very easy. I dont get how people have such a hard time and yes iv used both live and psn. Only thing live has over the friend invite is that you can make your party before the game. Besides that though its very easy to invite in game and is far far far far far from a hassle.

Then I think the TC is missing the point regarding the appeal of Xbox Live. It's NOT just about the actual gameplay. The reason the TC's original post doesn't make sense to me because he's inferring that that's all there is to being online.

There is no difference.

Na its pretty dang easy. When I play online I go to invite friend select which friend or friends in 1 go and thats it. If that really is a hassle to you then I dont know what to say to you then. Again iv used both and they are both very easy to use.

I noticed from my personal experiences that XBL is a lot simpiler and more reliable to use. When playing Call of Duty on my PS3 i constanly cant connect to the host, and i can hardly ever join some players parties. With XBL i dont have that problem. I also like how XBL has Cross Game Invites and Chat.

What's the difference?

Your Connection and nothing more.

Both PSN and Xbox Live really don't have a lot of Differences in terms of Online Play.

they're the same. that's why i will never pay for Live. seriously.

also, not everyone has a gamer friend. all of my friends do not play video games, probably only 1 or 2 has a PS3 like me so i could care less about Cross game chat or whatever. if i wanna spend some time with my friends we go out and have fun and not lock ourselves inside our houses and talk inside a virtual world. gaming for me is time for myself and away from reality.

again, only 1 or 2 of my friends have a ps3, and it's not even theirs it's their sibling's consoles. they play once in a while, but gaming is my hobby. when we go out we don't sit in front of a couch and play splitscreen what i mean is we physically go outside the house and burn calories or go somewhere else.

[QUOTE="White_Dreams"][QUOTE="clone01"] Oh, I know. Play-wise, you're absolutely right. I just find it amusing that, just because one doesn't find value in XBL, they assume that no one else does either, which I believe he was insinuating.tormentos

Yea i can send you a invite while your playing cod trust me it constally happens to me. though you would need to stop playing cod and put uncharted 2 in.

There is nothing that is not user friendly on PSN,it should be call interface for mummies,is simple is fast and easy to learn,even more if you owned a PSP,which more than 70 million used,that is 15 million more than the xbox 360.tormentos

Xbox online thing is better, but the PSN community is better.

I have XBL but i used to own a PS3, fyi

From what i've seen (playing COD4 a few years back), its easier to mod on the PS3. Just because its OS seems to be a bit more open, and maybe the consequences of getting banned are smaller (since its a free account). But otherwise, its pretty much identical.

Nothing...I've owned Assassin's Creed Brotherhood and Call of Duty MW2 & Call of Duty Black Ops for both 360 and PS3 and the matchmaking for both is exactly the same...all the fanboy logic of there being a huge glaring difference between PSN & Live is make believe.
