[QUOTE="ZombieKiller7"]Basic functionality = Console + online
360 cost = $299 + $50/year for 6 years = $599 for basic functionality
PS3 cost = $299 = $299 for basic functionality
I am not aware of any dedicated servers for 360 games. It might have some, but I don't know any off the top of my head.
PSN has dedicated servers for : MAG, Resistance, Warhawk, Killzone. This I know for a fact.
You can have cross-game chat, I'll take dedicated servers.
PSN Free > XBL Gold
Now.
If you /want/ to, optionally you can get PS+ depending on which games you like, it can save you some money with discounts and freebies. I can totally see this being worth $50 a year.
XBL $50 a year? Ripoff. Consumer Fraud. Theft. Class Action lawsuit. "Drive your own car and pay me for gas."
tormentos
This is the whole truth about the matter and the reason why XBL and PNS+ can't be even compare,they don't do the same or have the same purpose,one charge you for huge discounts,and given you a chance to play games without actually paying for them individually and the other charge you for online play. What kind of flawed logic is this. PSN+ charges you for discounts. Guess that defeats the purpose of having a discount doesn't it.
Hypothetical situation: Your being charged $10 to get an item at $10 discount, now anyone tell me how much you saved.
And just for your information.
