[QUOTE="Norg"]It's really not that much, not needed yes, but not exactly bank breaking. I often spend twice that amount, every friday.Same here, plus I get my subscription for LIVE at discount at newegg. The only part thats the same is multi-player capability and the upside is thats it's free. But the rest of the features are far better on LIVE period.PSN because its about the same has XBL and its FREE !!!!!!!!!!!
XBL is like 50 BUCKS a year

[QUOTE="BioShockOwnz"]XBL is obviously better. The industry bigwigs would agree. PSN is good for free, but not good enough to compete with the superior XBL.Panther501i really don't see what XBL does better than PSN other than a few small thingsSorry but not true, they're quite distinct services. PSN is free but not on par with features on LIVE. I play SOCOM everyday because well it's my favorite game right now. I can tell ya it's not the same, but I do like the fact that PSN allows more players in more games. LIVE does have games games that allow more than 16 players but weren't that great to begin with. But I would take LIVE's features over PSN's anyday in terms of comparing both services. You can argue all you want about PSN been better. You can put as much lipstick on a pig as you want, but in the end it's still just a pig.
I changed my pre-order to the xbox 360 version because most of my friends(360 owners) said that they'd be picking it up. I originally assumed that they weren't fans of the fighting game genre and pre-ordered it for PS3.Dyrti_Byrd_2k2Same here, I originally pre ordered for PS3. But all my friends are getting it for 360 and well theres probably going to be more challegers on LIVE. Plus I just received my HORI Real Arcade Pro.EX last week.
I hate to say this, but I thought Gears of War 2 was more impressive. I'm just a sucker for the texutres and lighting.WasdieI agree, it improved from GeOW1. It was definitely more vivid than last go around.
Kaz Hirai comments on the current state of the video game console industry and his view of the future Sony Computer Entertainment chairman Kaz Hirai made several interesting comments in an interview with the Official PlayStation Magazine. The contents of the interview were relayed to the public via Eurogamer and will be available in the February issue of the Official PlayStation Magazine. I laughed my *** off when I read this, whats next! LOL
Although Sony no longer leads the industry in console sales Hirai believes Sony still possesses "Official" leadership of the videogame industry. He stated, "This is not meant in terms of numbers, or who's got the biggest install base, or who's selling most in any particular week or month, but I'd like to think that we continue official leadership in this industry,".
Hirai expanded on his statement explaininghow he did not view the Nintendo Wii as competition and declaring the Xbox 360 as a console that will lack longevity. Describing how he viewed theNintendo Wii's position in the industry Hirai, stated, "It's difficult to talk about Nintendo, because we don't look at their console as being a competitor. They're a different world, and we operate in our world - that's the kind of way I look at things." For the Xbox 360, Hirai continued,"And with the Xbox - again, I can't come up with one word to fit. You need a word that describes something that lacks longevity."
Hirai also reemphasized his belief the PlayStation 3 will have the most units sold at the end of the lifecycle for this generation of videogame consoles. He is quoted as saying, "unless things go really bad, there's no way that at the end of a life cycle our competition is going have a higher install base."
As a wrap up, Hirai commented on how the PlayStation 3 was deliberately designed to be difficult to program for in order to increase the overall lifecycle of the console. Sony has often described the PlayStation 3 as having a 10-year lifecycle. Hirai added, "We don't provide the 'easy to program for' console that [developers] want, because 'easy to program for' means that anybody will be able to take advantage of pretty much what the hardware can do, so then the question is what do you do for the rest of the nine-and-a-half years?"
Holy Cow! Well Everyone's Sales improved thats goodAgentA-Mi6Sony's numbers are actually disappointing in terms of growth from last years holiday and 08's holiday sales. They need a price cut fast, but at the moment it's not feasible because of economic constraints keep it from doing that since Sony as a whole is losing quite a bit of money.
