dont worry... he is going to use the friend's house argumentDidnt you say before that you had the Forza 2 demo, well i'm nearly sure you can only get that through marketplace, and to get a demo from marketplace you need to atleast have a Xbox Live Silver account.
I never questioned whether you had a 360 before, but after reading this thread, i highly doubt you have a 360.
You could say this thread completely backfired.

Seriously people, a new TV isn't gonna change the way you game. I tried some of my games on an HDTV and im glad I didn't buy one. My friend also bought an HDTV as soon as he bought his 360 (launch day) I got my 360 5 months later and playing on regular TV, and now, when he had a 5 month headstart he still hasn't even reached 10k points, nor has he played as many games as I have.no **** it makes the experience better
I'm mentioning this because many people think having an HDTV makes them better gamers...just like some people think getting a console launch day makes them better ganers too.

[QUOTE="Flame1"] all the features of home will be available in menus additionally if the user prefers it that way. heres a way it can improve online: say for instance you have a bunch of friends who live far away. you can hang out in your little appartment and shoot the s***, listen to music, watch movies, play a little pool minigame (a poker minigame in the appartment would be sweet), and then instantly jump into an online game all together. thats how it would makes things better.

I guess thats pretty cool for some people but the whole idea of making an avatar and hanging out in a virtual world still doesn't appeal to me
in my opinion is quite fruity....[QUOTE="format_kid"]I honestly do not understand why cows think Home is going to make PSN so much better than Xbox Live. You all brag about how the features are going to destroy Xbox Live. I'm not going to just go out an make stuff up, and honestly, I don't know a whole lot about Home, but I do know this: It's pretty much pointless. There is only one point I want to bring up and that is this: 3D is not better than Xbox Lives text based menus. First off, the menus are simple, if I want to see my achievements, takes about a second to get there and then I select the game I want; if I want to add a friend, it only takes as long to click on "Send Friend Request"; I could go on but I'm sure you get the point - the menus are easy to use and nothing takes more than a couple seconds to get too. And Secondly, the main point I wanted to bring up, I spend a very small amount of time in the menus compared to how much I'm actually playing games, maybe 1%, even if that much. If I had a PS3 with Home, I don't see that changing at all. I'm not going to walk around wasting time doing absolutely nothing when I could be enjoying a game. So with that in mind, what's so special about Home that t's going to make PSN amazingly better? I don't see the point of it, it improves online gameplay in no way at all. Have fun walking around in a little sim world while I'm playing games. Or perhaps you cows just bought a PS3 for a 3D version of myspace and not to play games.BrutonNYC
Well for starters... It offers everything that xbox live offers in a more visceral 3d enviroment for free... Reason enough?
does home come with the large community that live offers? What about all the great live games? How much support is their for psn games?[QUOTE="tempest91"][QUOTE="Game13a13y"][QUOTE="adrian_sig"]I've bet you've never even used the service because at the bottom of your post it looks like you a sonyfanboy because all the games are ps3 exept one or two Wii games, dont be jelous just because the 360 has better online then the Ps3 (right now) and the Wii.

ok, let me make it clear again like in my previous post.
i don't hate Xbox 360, in fact, i do really want to play games like Lost Planet, Too Human, Mass Effect, and among several others. the only thing holding me back is the hardware problem and XBL fees.
i'll happily get one if they fix some of those problems, Wi-Fi, 65 nm chip, quieter fan and DVD drive, and make the XBL more approachable, (at least make the online match making part free).
i'm not "bashing" (as some of you thought so) just because.
Check this out: buy the system, use the free trial you get with it, then discover why it is so much better than Home and you won't worry about the fees just like every other user on Xbox Live.
sigh... like i said, i don't want to get it now until they fix the hardware issues. and i know, i've played 360 numerous times, and its really not the live feature that got me want to buy one. as it's $50 a year whereas its free on PC and PS 3. so as a owner of those 2 systems. the live just seems so obsolete to me. what i'm interested in are the games. but heck, the hardware problem didn't get solved with the Elite.
well, ya.. so there goes my "fanboy" point of view if you'd like to call it.
you dont understand.... How many great PSN games are there?
Now how many great live games are there? How large is the psn community? How large is the live community? To me if you can answer those questions honestly.... you will finally realize why live is worth the 50 a year
[QUOTE="chubz256"][QUOTE="Yellow_Rose"][QUOTE="Game13a13y"]and i don't need to state the obvious reasons rite? and sooner or later, Home will come out to match with XBL.

Thank you! Wow, all i got in home was a virtual instant messenger that will take me away from my games. Nah, i rather go play the sims.
And exactly how will HOME improve the online gaming experience?
for one, you can make an avatar of yourself and no, its not as cute as Mii, but it looks way cooler.
second, Home gives you a virtual apartment thingy that lets you customize your furnitures, decorations and stuffs. it also let you watch movies like you're in a real house.
last but not least, you can walk outside of your house to meet different people around the world and play games with each other, go to a movie theater to see movie previews, or watch a actual movie (but you have to pay of course), and go inside a trophy room thingy that lets you show off your achievements.
sounds quite interesting to me :wink:
just because something is in 3d does not make it a great gaming experience.... You have yet to mention ONE THING on how it will imprive online gaming? Why are devs making so many great xbox live games and there are hardly any psn games that are worth playing online?
Face it kid... without the community and games, it doesn't matter how flashy home is.
There is a worlds of difference between playing a game on the psn and playing a game on live. Playing a game on psn is a DEAD expereince. Few people use headsets... No one uses teamwork. There arnt many other users to play with....
Live is different however. Most players actually use their headsets. They actually use teamwork....
live is better because of the community, dev support and the games....thats the gist of why Live is better... Do you see now?
really how can you call 120gb huge, it was mainstream in 2004 in desktops and now its the main drive size found in laptops, and even a buget laptop comes with 80gb now and you call 120gb huge? just becuase x360 and ps3 is the only way you can get a 20gb hard drive now doesn't mean 120gb is huge. 1 got 400gb for my pc a few months ago now for about 2/3 the price of the x360 120gb hard drive.imprezawrx500a pc user has to store much more than what a typical xbox360 user has to store. A pc has to store a whole entire O/S plus every game someone installs must be stored in the hard drive. Games take up about 4-8 gigs now a days on a pc hardrive.
[QUOTE="osusfaith"][QUOTE="shungokustasu"][QUOTE="xjet039"][QUOTE="shungokustasu"]lmao, they going to try this agin I see. shungokustasu
they will do well just like blue dragon.
Blue Dragon did well? LMAO!!!!!! You so funny.
Blue Dragon increased 360 console sales by like 200% for it's opening week and upped it's general numbers for a solid month before tapering off. That's better then nothing. So yea, you fail for trolling
I don't troll. And you think 200k copies sold is a great achievement very, very funny. Sorry, I have higher standards than that for ALL games that are release.
we are sorry Master Cow. The TC humbely requests your forgivness for not following your god like standard.
