    Question PSN & XBL

    What is this BIG difference that XBOXers constantly rant on about? Why do they hate us?
    I want to understand more about this XBL "Online Networking" What makes it better than PSN?
    Can some one give me pros and cons? like non-biased. cuz there are TONS the PS3 can do and ive yet to find something that a 360 can do that would make say... "ohhhhhhh yeah das a it! better"

    enlighten me.

    Oh yeah if this is a repost please direct me to the thread

    Everyone on XBOX always says its better...but when I ask them to tell me why..."oh you would just have to play it to see.."


    The internet is the internet....and if its the same game...well its the same game.

    yeah... i get similar responses as well. But with a much more hateful tone. Most XBOXers have never even seen a PS3 to compare. No there are the rare XBOXer like JITB that's played PS3 and have given honest opinions and even pointed out the better traits the PS3 has but the majority arent as open minded as him. They hate PS3 with all their might. Its like segregation all over again.

    personally i like how the interface is set up better than psonline. (i have both systems)

    it is easier to navigate and fnd what i want. it is just more user friendly imo.

    other than that the internet is the internet. i use xbl for all my multi platform games because most of my friends have it too. i have had an xbox360 for years and got a ps3 a year and a half ago.

    i will admit though that the ps3 is a better system because you can browse the net and play blueray and free wireless adapter.

    okay. Interface... now we're getting somewhere. It's good to hear a response outside of "It's just better"
    If recall you got your PS3 around SOCOM time. how did that work out for you? I traded in my SOCOM for MLB The Show

    I have heard that the support is better and faster for XBL than PSN because it is a paid service, but since I only have XBL, I can't give info from personal experience.

    psn is upgrading to a premium version of psn that will allow you to do everything xbox can for less money. the premiun will let you play music while your in chat and you can talk to people in a voice chat while you play a game, instead of just people on your team... so ive heard..... xbox fails btw.

    I heard (HEARD), that you can only directly jump into friends games on XBL, and PS doesn't do that. Ex, if I turn my xbox on and see a buddy playing Team Deathmatch on MW2, I can just click to join and hop directly in his/her game. But Ive never seen how the PS online works

    Before I say anything I want to let it be known I've owned both systems. I sold my PS3 because it never got used.

    1. I can count on one hand how many people I know with PS3's. What fun is playing by yourself? To me there is no fun. I like to shoot shit with my friends while busting heads in MW2. There for xbox > ps3

    2. As someone else mentioned, the interface is much better for xbox. Its quicker and easier.

    3. Other entertainment. When I had my ps3 there were a few movies on there you could watch but nothing like the 360 had. Not sure if the ps3 is still lacking there or not but when I owned mine (about a year ago) is was lacking.

    4. Trophy system is pathetic compared to xbox's achievements


    Now for what PS3 has over 360.

    1. Blu-ray player. Which I have a samsung BR player so that doesn't bother me.
    2. Wireless internet. Don't a problem for me with the 360 but would be nice to have.

    But if you bought the ps3 at its release you paid for those things considering the ps3 was a bit more expensive.

    1. That's a given. Most of the folks I know have a PS3 so I don’t play by myself. It is fun playing with friends so that’s why we PS3ers do it.

    2.I cant speak on the interface seeing that im not familiar with the XBOX’s interface so you can have that

    3.Other entertainment doesn’t lack to me. PSN has plenty movies and now NetFlix so…. Yeah. I personally don’t use any of that since I run everything I download from my computer via a media server. FREE and I can watch whatever at a whim

    4.I’m not sure what you mean by trophy system. Do you mean like comparing trophies with others? I don’t really do that but enlighten me if you will.

    Ive had both PS3 and 360,i played cod4 on both consoles,i sold my PS3 and bought another 360.

    the online interface is very smooth,i love being able to talk to my friends while we play COD without having to listen to dumbasses on my team,or talk without being in a game.

    xbox has netflix,a radiostation,and the zune app lets you watch tv shows.....but i never use any of that stuff. I just use mine for gaming and DVD player,which it does great.

    Well I use my xbox all the time to watch movies and tv shows. last.fm is nice also for when cleaning the house and want to jam or having a party and want to put some music on. The facebook app is kinda cool. Pointless for the most part but still cool and I use it every once and awhile. It always hooked me up with friends that I didn't know where on live.

    As far as the trophies. It just seemed like a weak attempt to copy xbox's achievements.

    Well PS3 has Netflix now. and we have an internet browser and as you know there are MANY online radio stations out there (i know some require flash) but there are radio stations that we can go to and of course there are many places to watch TV shows.
    When the wife is on her facebook on the laptop and a friend is on my PC i have my big ass extra PC (PS3+48" TV) in the living room. i love it!

    Im gonna break it down as best as i can..

    Xbox live interface and setup is easier to navigate and get around.

    XbL party system is another great thing, being able to chat with friends playing 8 different games. Watch movies with friends online..a little gay at first but cool.

    As far as internet is internet, it is, but as far as internet gaming, the xbox live system is geared like 80% gaming, and 20% entertainment.
    The Ps3 seems to be 50/50 split, which is coo.. but most of us own these thigns to play games on.

    XBL overall seems alot more social than PSN, they have spent along time trying to perfect xbl as a paid service. And it is well worth the 50$year-8$month , i havent heard anyone complain about it that plays. Ive been on Xblx since it started nov.15 2002..lol


    you have to play both to really see the difference, on paper it seems foolish to pay for something u can get for free with psn. But Xbl is a better gamer online service..

    Achievements make u want to do extras..and yea the playstation trophies are useless..

    Game with developers,actors,musicians on XBL, I have played with Forza creators a few times. And playing halo with Dane cook!

    PSN will be getting a premium service where you can choose what apps you want to use and pay what you want to pay by choosing those services.
    oh and they will be including the chatting thing that the xbl has. and on some of the services you get to play any and all PS1 classics for free and get game betas.

    the old Dreamcast titles are still up in the air for purchase, id rather see them go to both platforms.. rather than just one..

    but that list of stuff is everything Xbl already has 10$ more a year, and 1$ a more a month... It takes years to get all that stuff ironed out, and working right, Xbl just got to a point to where it runs as smooth as it does.

    that premium stuff sounds cool tho.

    360 users just have their panties in a wad because PSN get to play for free.

    1. The 360 interface is prettier with more navigation tools.

    2. Trophies and Achievements are the same d@mn thing. Saying one is better than the other is pointless.

    3. Both have a WIDE selection of movies and TV shows for rent/purchase.

    4. Both (as far as I recall) have both full games and demos available for purchase/download.

    It comes down to what system you're loyal to. I've had both and can say that both online interfaces function well enough for what they're intended to do: gaming. I've gone through 2x 360's and finally got a PS3 due to being a PS2 fanboy. Some feel otherwise.

    It boils down to this: If you want to pay the monthly fee for XBL and get a shiny interface and some chat options then go with that. If you want a more basic, yet free, interface then go with PSN. That's essentially the only difference.

    Its more user friendly and also I find it to have less problems connecting on XBL and a lot less lag.

    If you ever played FIFA 10 on PSN then FIFA 10 on XBL you would see there is a huge difference. Thats about it. PSN does have more mature people thou, theres a bunch of 10 year olds on XBL.
    You niggas know my pyroclastic flow, its R A W!

    From my experience, XBox has a larger community (of players), therefore making it more fun to play with other people while PSN has a smaller one. And I think to play XBL you need to pay while PSN is free. Plus, XBox has so many games that are "made" for online multiplayer.

    Ive played both and the thing i like about the 360 is the interface and the avatars.

    PS3 FTW though because its free.

    I have owned both and the PS3 has achievments and trophies. The difference is PS3 goes by trophies on how good the achievment, XBL goes by points on how good the achievment is. PS3N is evolving everyday, and remeber 360 has been out longer than the PS3. PS3 system as a whole is better, blu ray, wifi, computer access. Xbox you cant do that even connecting your computer to it. Shoot when I played MW2 online im like wow dont even have to pay to play this online which is a plus.

    I said you can connect to your PC w/ 360, but what is that just photos and personal videos cuz I did it w/ my old one and that's all I got. PS3 you can do everything a computer does I even heard people downloading windows to their PS3. Plus you have to additionally buy the wifi for 360 when Ps3's is built in.

    pics/videos/music thats about all u can or need to share with your system, they updated the 360 a year and a half back to recognize all files on your pc. . You can put windows/linux on ur xbox. You could even do that with the first xbox... so im sure you can do it with the ps3. And yes u have to buy the wireless adapter.

    and 4 years ago, wireless wasnt as popular, and cheap as it is now.

    I remember when he 1st xbox was released, and it was basically a Pc with controller ports, and people some how turned that into a bad thing...lol And now look at the ps3....

    I could never go online w/ my old 360 like I could on a computer only access music, video, and pics that were saved on my computer and connect it to the 360. The PS3 I could go online such as the computer would.

    yea u cant go online like internet explorer on the 360 of course not, but you can access your pc's audio/video/pictures like the ps3. The ps3's pc access is alot easier, but the 360 just takes a few minutes to setup.. But with the new 7 i hear it sets itself up and connects instantly.

    yea i never said you could go on the internet without modding the xbox, but i said with the original xbox it could be modded to do that, so its not a hard thing or something that cant be done by MS in the future. And the 360 can be modified to be a pc and run windows/linux aswell. I think that MS will add Internet explorer as an option with the 360 in the future.... i think when or if they redo the IE it will happen.


    but as far as PSN - XBL online gameplay Xbox LIve wins.. but the ps3 is full of extras, and entertainment that the 360 cant do....yet. It would be nice to have this...but honestly id rather have better games, and a solid multiplayer experience.
