A) PSN is great. No lag, no monthly fees. Just about a Xbox Live, although Xbox Live has cross-game voice chat, but that's about the only thing xbox live has over PSN.Originally Posted by Dreakon
GTA4? Maybe. Usually there is always a hand full of players playing a game, and seeing on how it was popular, I'd assume so. NHL games are released every year, so I would buy the most recent and play that. Littlebig Planet has tons of people on it.
C) Download movies, game demos, buy full games (even games found in stores), talk with friends in chat rooms, talk via Playstation Eye (webcam), everything the xbox can do (but cross-game chat voice chat)
I own both systems. PS3 all the way.
Not only does it have WAY more exclusives than the 360, but it has free PSN with built in Wifi (you have to buy a wireless adapter for $100 if you get a 360). It costs $60 a year to play online while PS3 is free. The PS3 also has a blue ray player.
After you buy a 360, you're looking at around $160 + $60 per year extra just to play online.
If price isn't a limit though, I'd still recommend the PS3. Overall, it's a more powerful system, capable of hosting 128vs128 war battles while the 360 can't do more than 10 players in Gears of War without slow texture loading.
PS. If you have an HD television, rent a blueray DVD. You wont go back.
EDIT: I see your next few posts are about internet connectivity. Let me put it this way.
My friend, has a router upstairs and a PS3 downstairs. It is separated by freakin everything. He plays at 20% wireless connectivity without a hiccup. I was kind of amazed actually, I mean, the PS3's wireless isn't god mode, but It certainly doesn't disappoint. The only thing I can see wrong with it is the lack of wireless N compatibility; but that's for high-end routers.
EDIT EDIT: You can set your router from N to something the PS3 is compatible with (I forgot the term. B/G maybe?) We tried wireless N. It was no different than the rest.
