Any link to back up this claim? I have pretty bad news for you, it was MS with the Toy Story statement. It appears MS fanboys again did what they do best: lie and twist the facts. Here is exclusively for you the lovely MS statement:
"One of the basic premises of the Xbox is to put the power in the hands of the artist," Blackley said, which is why Xbox developers "are achieving a level of visual detail you really get in 'Toy Story.'"
PNP is shaping up to a great service and although beeing late to the party, it's doing some things better than Live:
"the PlayStation Store, even at this early stage, looks like being one aspect of the service which will be a genuine improvement over Microsoft's offering, Xbox Live Marketplace - which is well-stocked, but has a terrible user interface that struggles to cope with the amount of content now available, and has only been marginally improved by recent updates."
<...
"However, Microsoft is quoted as indicating that due to shortages of blue-laser diodes, Microsoft is reluctant to launch a hardware piece on the markets, which does not have enough movies, particularly, in Asia."

Sorry but unlinke you we can play for FREE. Unlike MS, Sony has nothing against user created content and we will get tons of new maps, games, etc. for FREE. If Sony can deliver on these things plus a game lobby, friends list and chat, then there is no need for XLive, PNP will blow XLive just out of the water.

I misunderstood it a little before, Sony will have their own service and Xfire is only the connection to PC gamers. XLive is maybe a little more comfortable, cause now we will pro...
I hope Sony will have also shortages for the Europe launch. I'll preorder at least 5 and sell 4 on Ebay and I'll easily earn me a nice 1080p HDTV. Just saw a nice 1080p HDMI LG for only 1500€.
It will be the first time I'll have a launch console but I don't need to worry, in Europe warranty is regulated per law, everything has 1-2 years warranty :-)

deceased, you made me laugh with this statement
"Only certain publisher or developers will use x-fire. It is like a second choice beside Sony's non-existant network."
It sure seems like that doesn't it. But anyways PC online is the worst because modds are incredibly common and easy to impliment. Not to mention the PS3 has internet so people can directly download cheats to their HDD to ruin online p...
...Xfire Anywhere. That would be great.
...exactly what I predicted when this was only a rumour and the Xfire CEO was denying their service is a part of PNP.
Xfire is the best and leading online PC game platform and I have no doubt now that PS3 online will rock. If it offers the same like on PC a Friend Tracker, One-Click Join, Server Browser, Xfire In-Game (IM While You Play) with Voice Chat, video chat, File & Patch Downloads, Profiles with Automatic Stats, then I'm completely sold. These all of course for free. Xfi...

Its a opinion from a journalist. Not really from Ubisoft. The journalist got to see both versions and they noticed the x360 version looked better. No surprise since Ubisoft has made quite a few games to for xbox 360 so they know how it runs."
Bravo, the first Ms fanboy I met here that makes sense.
Ubisoft didn't say 360 is more powerful. They said: "we’re developing with 360 as our main development ...

All u guys do is lie to trick ppl into buying a ps3 over a 360. Even ubisoft is now saying the 360 has the hardware advantage, and theyr a nonbiased, crossplatform company, what they have in store for the next splinter cell games cannot be handled by the ps3, only 360 and computers. On top of that I gave u perfectly valid links, as always, to back my arguements, I have researched over a y...
...with his comparison. Well it's even not his and he doesn't understand what he copy pastes. Dx10, unified shaders, etc - this all sounds great(that's why I get me a new PC), but even G80/R600 won't have enough horsepower to take enough advantage of it(that's why I'll wait for second gen dx10 cards and quad Core 2 Duo, before I'll get me a new PC).
Both G80/R600 are way more powerful than Xenos, but even these cards won't be enough for 2nd/3rd gen dx10 games. GF5800 and R9700 also sup...
Any link stating the PS2 DVD drive was breaking down almost instantly on every model? Without facts your claims are just worthless. My PS2 works fine and from all people I know only 1 had a problem.
...cause it's an epidemic of failure. PS2 didn't have as many failures as 360 has now. I also wonder how companies are screwing you americans, in Europe everything has 1-2 years warranty. 90 days warranty, this must be a bad joke.

60% overheating? Bull. Link please! Only because your friend and yours broke down? Maybe the conditions weren't good, too close to radiator, build in or just bad luck.

...just another master stroke by Sony. Honestly, who wants to fork out $99 for only 20GB? Probably only blind MS fanboys that doesn't even get MS is screwing them bigtime.
DJ - your linked HDD ain't serial ata, it's the old format ATA = IDE HDD. SATA costs a little more, but not much, around $10. I did a little research for my great slogan that I have as signature in a forum:
Twice the size, but half the price, thanks Sony !!!
Sony said from day one that with free network they mean the things people are taking on the PC for granted:
online multiplayer, friends list, etc.
And sorry it won't end up you paying still, as people doesn't need the extra content to enjoy online multiplayer.
GT:HD btw is not a full game and as stated by the...
