Same with me. People say that Xbox live isnt worth the money but for me i will happily pay the money for Party chat alone, I mainly play singleplayer games and im always in party chat when playing them.

Even if im on the ps3 playing a singleplayer game im still have my xbox turned on and in party chat.

I know ay, xbl is worth it (I get my subscription cheeeeaaaap as) the controller is awesome (im not a fan of fighting games anyway so its algud)

Imo multiplat games is more play to play on x360, so i leave all the exclusives of mine on ps3, even though i still get the xbox exclusives obviously :D

I kicked some @ss in Gears 2 last night and chatting with people is awesome so Xbox Live is well worth the money for me.

That's hilarious! To use your PS3 you first have to turn on your Xbox 360? :D

RRODs and loud noise only affected older units and then only some of them (granted more than they should), but disc read issues have never been an issue unless your machine is worn out which affects all machine. The disc drive is the first part that goes out usually because it is mechanical.

The great thing about the Xbox 360 is the ability to install the entire game to the hard drive. Faster game loading and zero noise!

You make it sound like the Ps3 has no voice chat, no invites, no friends list and basically the online for Ps3 is unplayable.

I prefer PSN because virtually every 1st party game has dedicated servers. I don't know about anyone else but for me the whole point of playing a game is...well... playing a game, so lagless smooth gameplay is my priority.

I guess other people put a higher standard on the features instead of the experience. Each to their own.

Dedicated servers is very nice on PSN. I wish MS would do that more and MS does with Gears of War 3, but it should really just be standard on all games on all platforms.

However, I also like the social aspect of gaming. So no friends/people to chat to, makes it feel like playing a single player game.

Also P2P isn't necessary unplayable, it's just occasionally you get the bad one. The vast majority probably can't even tell the difference.
