Why would you need to buy a wireless adapter? Wired is the way to go anyways, and the new 360's support wireless out the box. Hell, I have an old 360 and I simply paid $5 for a long-ass ethernet cord.

I get Xbox Live for $45 a year, and before the price-raise it was even cheaper. You just need to know where to look and not buy the cards from a store. I don't have a PS3 obviously, so I can't say much about PSN, but I have heard from even PS3 owners that the connection can be iffy at time. However, that's just what I've heard so I won't really go and criticize the PSN when I don't have first-hand experience with it. Free is always cool, but if I knew paying would go towards a better experience, I'd do it(but also weep a little when I know I don't have the money for it). I also love my party chat/personal chat outside of games.

PS3 has had its share of hardware issues, please don't ignore them. Also, yes, their being hacked was a very major problem, a lot of personal information was compromised. Dunno what you're trying to say with the bugs/errors... O.o as far as I know, games tend to be coded for the 360 and then ported to the PS3, hence why PS3 versions usually look worse/have more bugs. I already addressed the bluray thing in the other thread. I don't mind swapping discs. Bluray loads way slower than a DVD, even after saving it to the HDD(which is forced for many large games because otherwise the loading would be unbearable).


They called off the free Battlefield 1943 the DAY BATTLEFIELD 3 WAS RELEASED LOL. They announced it on Twitter. Sucks for people who were expecting it. Google it if you want more details.

Um... ya every console has exclusive content. That's not really a selling point, it's what the exclusive content is that matters. Those don't interest me, but a few exclusives games do... but then again 360 also has some interesting exclusive content. Whether you like them or not though is up to you, but you should be objective about it. Console sellers for me for the PS3 would be the Last Guardian and Metal Gear Solid 4, and probably God of War 3. If it weren't for those games I don't think I'd bother as most games are multi-platform and I already own a 360. However, god dammit Last Guardian taunts me so.

Again, it was a very big ****ing deal. Don't understate it, it was big enough for them to compensate all PSN users with a year of identity theft(pretty expensive). That's not even counting how long the service itself was down, and the fact that they knew it was going on for a whole week and never let any of the users know. They know they ****ed up, why do PS3 owners have a hard time admitting it as well? If you want to look at how to properly handle personal info being hacked, Steam was recently targetted as well. They let users know almost immediately.

And Sony Move is...? TBH I don't care, I have no interest in the Kinect or Sony Move, and I consider my relationship with my Wii a tolerated one, though I have gotten much enjoyment out of it.

Are games considered free when you pay $50 a year for them?

Microsoft doesn't really deal much with first-party games, it comes down to the third party devs and what they feel like making. However, what games have recently came out on the PS3 that are exclusive and "hardcore?" Most of the recent big titles are multi-platform games. Also, I hate the whole "casual" vs "hardcore" bull****. Elitist attitude, imo.

All in all, it's quite clear that you're clearly in favor of Sony/PS3 and it's clouding any semblence of reasonable judgement. Your entire post is a lengthy rebuttal against... nothing. It's like your expecting people to attack the PS3.

Like I said, I got the 360 because it was cheaper(especially when I got it, and the PS3 was still $600). If I had the money I'd have a PS3 as well... I just don't get the point of how people are so quick to jump and defend a system, and to criticize another. Let people enjoy/play what they damn well feel like. So you like PS3, I'm happy for you! Why? Because you enjoy it, and in the end your own personal enjoyment is what matters, and I don't see the point of pushing your opinion onto someone else so forcibly.
