    Default PS3 Vs Xbox 360

    I'm in a pickle right now...

    I already know what these consoles have to offer in games but not so much online.

    I hear that the Playstation Network is a tad bit "water down" compared to Xbox live.

    This is a concern for me since I want to play online.

    Discuss.

    pc. 10pc's

    edit; fine i'll contribute more

    360 online
    -*****y 11 year olds
    -they 'force' you to play with americans as it does not filter.
    -subscription
    -very smooth online system (communication, parties, joining n shit)
    -achievement system
    -download system
    -streaming
    -good connection? (well mine is pretty ****ed as I have to reset my connection before i can sign into xboxlive but everyone else is fine, asides that no lag)
    -microsoft point shop
    -avatar customization (if your a faggy like that)

    pc is much better, don't buy a console.

    What games are you planning to get?

    Do you want to pay for online?
    You need people like me. You need people like me so you can point your %$&#! fingers and say, "That's the bad guy."

    Live is a premium service with premium features. It IS superior to the PSN but that doesn't mean the PSN is shat.

    You can have your friends, send/receive msgs, and start a text/video chat, basic stuff. It tells you who signs off/on. It doesn't have the cross-game chat like Live does. You won't be lagging in a game unless it's of your own connection's fault or the host of a lobby. Since servers aren't hosted by Sony, unlike Microsoft, all the games that are enabled with online multiplayer counts on the developers to make good servers. There's the Playstation store where you buy movies, games, add-on content, videos, etc off of. Other than that, the PSN service is a good deal for the price of "free".

    Live's service is great, it's everything the PSN has to offer AND more. The whole "you get what you pay for" deal works well here. That $50 a year towards Live is a perfect price.

    Oh, for the love of any deity that may exist.

    I swear we need a goddamn sticky thread for this topic. I'm genuinely sick of these threads. It's not bad enough that it's a simple decision between two consoles, but with the amount of threads there have been you should know EVERYTHING by now.

    They're basically the same.. Fk.
    You don't notice lag in either one.
    Even with Lives supposibly amazing servers, you lag in new games, and games with a lot of players like CoD(Surprisingly the PS3's connection was better for CoD, they kept fking up sht on 360 version- it was so annoying).

    Either way you're pretty much getting the same games. The chat is helpful on Live - but soon PS3 will have that.
    I think PS3 is better because overtime you save more money not playing for live, and fking BluRay.. fk my games. D;!

    Like you waste so much money on live that you could of spent on another game, or FOOD when you're bored of the games you got.
    I pay my damn internet bill, why I gotta pay a live bill when I'm hardly playing.

    I seriously think they should have Live free to connect and play online.. then a Live premium with all the extras.

    Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell Conviction




    I just want to know if i could play these games well on the Playstaion Network.

    If not, I'll just get a Xbox 360.
    Bioshock on PS3
    CoD On PS3
    Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell Conviction on PS3
    Don't get Mass Effect - but everyone knows its better on the PC anyways.

    -And no I haven't lagged in any of them. I haven't played Splinter Cell, but I doubt I'll lag in that neither on the PSN.
