I am really disappointed. I have known that the PS3 has had a web browser, but when I went to my friends house. I found out the Wii had one to.

Last I heard, Xbox Live is suppose to be innovative and suppose to have good service. So why doesn't the Xbox360 have a web browser? Do I have dollar a week for nothing?

I never said that, I'm giving you the EXACT reason MS reps gave when they announced Xbox Live was a closed Network Service.

It's a gaming console, why do you need a web browser? We all have internet access on computers and MS knows that...besides, there's a lot of people that don't even have xboxlive, including myself.

You are disappointed that the 360 lacks a web browser yet you are posting this most likely from a PC? Ironic.

I tried using the ps3 browser ONCE. Afterward, i just try to pretend it does not have one. Consoles dont need browsers. I have a decent pc in the same room, so why do i need to surf the web on a clunky, slow , limited console browser?

Lemmings/Hermits response: Just use your computer. Consoles suck for web browsing.

Cows response: Its awesome and easy to use. Its great for porn and looking up other stuff. Its also free. You can easily download movies/pics straight to your harddrive.

I support the cows view on web browsing on consoles.

If you have a high speed connection in your house, chances are you have a computer.  I personally don't care that the 360 didn't come with a browser.  I just want good games with a good online service, which the 360 delivers.  Also, it can be used as a media box unlike the PS3.  That's way more useful than internet browsing.

I need to get people to think this way

The Xbox360 has the best online... With Xbox Live

Why do inferior online capable consoles have a browser while the Xbox360 doesnt?

No thanks. It's a pain to use a controller to browse the web. I'll just stick with my laptop...

Why the Bloody hell would you want to surf the web on a Console?  I think it's pretty cool that M$ offers up TV/Movie programming over Live, but to me even that's stretching it alittle.  What ever happened to buying a Game console to play GAMES on it?  When you're done being dissapointed about the 360's lack of web browsing maybe you can concentrait on what's dissapointing about the PS3/Wii... the lack of GAMES..

Yeah. Thats why I said "funner" in my thread, not "good" The Xbox360 is already fun and good. The webrowser would make it better.

You obviously can't be that dissapointed, because you are using your own PC/Mac right now:shock: And has anyone actually used the PS3's browser? Cause I have, and it literally is garbage:|

One word: WEB-TV...

...yeah, we all know how that turned out.

You can't seriously tell me that you typed this message faster with a PS3 controller, or Wii-mote, if at all!

no need for a web browser when I have media center connected directly to my pc. I can get movies like vongo directly to my 360 from my pc and my complete music catalog. I can also use web type services like mtv overdrive and get all videos, tv shows etc. Can the ps3 do that? There is no need when media center adds way more to my experience than simply surfing the web.

I have a PS3 and only find the web browser useful for looking at flickr.com (photo sharing site) with friends/family... you're not missing out on much. The web browser is great for PSP because you can wake up in the morning, check the weather or news without even getting out of bed... but a web browser on a console? I find that useless...

Hey..
You know what? I got a computer and i got internet. Why should i waste my time surfing on my console? Plus you have to make a link with your router. lol. Even if my house was big and my computer was in the 5th floor and my console right beside me, i'd rather go on my computer.
