I have Gears and Halo for the PC, it's not the games, it's the unreliable RRoD and dumb/stupid idiotic DVD ROM drive that limits Next Gen gaming plus the annual 50 dolla rental fee, which is a BIG BIG deal breaker for me. Don't have Live for Windows so Gears on the PC is a challenge.

Xbox Live > FreeSN Network any day of the week. You only know PSN so your sample size is limited. BTW the buddy/friends list on the PS3 is pathetic and you know it. You cant do half the things you can do compared to the Lives friends list. And Live is much much more than Avatars and friends. Are you that hard up on cash you cant spend 50 bucks A YEAR? Actually you can get them on Amazon for 38 many many times. 10 cents a day gonna make you broke? Pathetic argument.

PSP around the world? Useless. Remember that whole PRINT FROM YOUR PS3 that NB pimped? Useless. PSN Home? USELESS. You can ROFLMAOFLAL LOLZ all you want about Halo but Halo 3 has more players PER DAY than any PS3 game. Something to think about.

PS3 browser is junk, not sure why you pimp it other than the fact that is has one. Yay. Trophies? Please tell me you think those are a good add on? Wait, oh you have to MANUALLY tell Sony what you have earned, for what? Oh to MANUALLY go on a site and tell them what you have unlocked? Get real with that, the trophies are another tacked on pile of **** on the PS3.

I love my PS3, however I can see what the differences are between them and where $ONY (oh look I can do that too!) has tried to take ideas from LIVE (guess its not as ****ty as you say) only to have it looked like it was added on after the fact. Oh wait, it was. The PS3 is a great media device, I copy my NFL games on there to watch them, however as far as streaming music, it bloooooooooows compared to the 360. Maybe I will show you a video about it.

For example, on the PS3 you have to go to the Music drop down, then your folder, then another folder, then oh a massive list. 360 it pops RIGHT up as soon as you go to play it. In game music? PS3 cant. What I do like is that I can copy my music on to my PS3, however I cant rename it or put it into folders (which is dumb considering I copied them from folders). Ever wonder why devs seem to drop content or demos first on LIVE? Its for a reason, think about it.

Much like your pathetic attempt at posting that rumor that LIVE was going up in cost (oh wait I think that must go against your "But as far as trolling pro 360 threads. You to have me mistaken with someone else. Go ahead, do the search by date!")

A couple things about the above:

1. I've used my PS3 to print from the web browser. It would be nice if the sports games developers actually implemented it in their software. Those of us in Madden Online Franchise would love to be able to print out rosters to examine trade possibilities for instance. EA may do that for Madden 11. It's a very cool tool to have, just a matter of game developers implementing it.

2. I wouldn't call the web browser junk - it's not Firefox but if i wanted that, I'd install Linux and Firefox on my PS3. But it does what I want from it, stream NFL games I don't get from regional broadcast.

3. I have no problem streaming music, not sure what you mean there.

4. In game music? Yes it can. It does so with Warhawk and I believe MLB The Show had it too. It's not that the PS3 "can't", it certainly can. But that's like the printer thing, the game developers have to let us do it. Different type of application to do so, but it can do it.

5. ""But as far as trolling pro 360 threads. You to have me mistaken with someone else. Go ahead, do the search by date!" ....... that's me, not McMadden. I don't have a post in that thread you linked.

why are we excited about an XBox360 Arcade for 200? its always 200. lol

The way it was explained to me is the gift card which actually knocks the price down by $100 (sort of). I ain't excited though ... just sharing b/c sharing is caring.
