I wonder how many of the commenters on this page actually own a 360.
I will put money on the minority.
stick together????
Its non 360 owning PS3 fanboys telling 360 owners that they are paying too much. Good luck with that.
Right along with those Kinect sucks articles. I'm sure you aren't complaining about those.
Welcome to N4G.
This is a pretty huge deal for Sony. I don't know how you can say it isn't. I hope Sony squashes it.
a new XBL feature :) They gotta justify that $10/month increase. /s
it sounds like the latter
I hope they get this thing stopped. From the looks of it, it ain't happening.
"but why did MS wait till MW2"
Because that is when the pirates come out of the walls. Same with Halo.
The most hyped games of the year come out and the pirates all want to get them before they are out. You are seeing it with Reach as we speak.
Pirates aren't going to go nuts over the smaller games.
"but you can clearly see the PS3 lies in the "cause-and-effect" situation. "
Sony has...

I agree. MS is banning people in waves because it is the smartest way to gain back revenue that the pirates stole from them. That is smart business, not a show of being greedy. Who is making these pirates buy another 360. NO ONE. The pirates deserve no leniency, and by blaming MS for strategically banning console to recover lost profit instead of questioning the root of the problem is wrong.
Sony deserves to recover the sales that they are losing and ...
yeah, there is no tire damage
Stop calling people xbots because people don't agree with your fanboy biased opinion. I own a launch PS3 and it is my favorite and it is the best console this gen. But how is a one console owning fanboy supposed to tell everyone else what the owners of the console they don't own should be doing. They can't.
"no matter how much they jack up they price you guys continue to bite, when will you guys say enough is enough?"
Interesting...as ...
whether or not they lied, they did say that these are from the PS3 and 360
how is that a fact?
That is an opinion, and probably one of a fanboy.
XBL offers more than PSN. FACT
PS3 fanboys care more about the pricing of XBL than anyone else. FACT
I don't really care what you think. The majority of online console gaming is done on XBL. You can bitch about how you think online gaming service should always be free because the only console you have has free online, but do me a favor and deal with the...
I would hope you aren't a PSN + member.
Those xbox live arcade GAMES that aren't released on PSN? PSN has good downloadable titles, but so does XBL. You can argue that XBL titles are better.
Not to mention I can download those GAMES and other updates that make those GAMES 10 times faster on XBL.
The invite system for PSN to connect to those GAMES is broke. IT takes 2 button pushes to accept an XBL....try that with PSN.
"gold charter member of live...beeen paying for Live since day one..what is that like 5 yrs.....or so.. "
You have been paying for live for 5 years now. I have been paying since it first came about 7+ years ago. I payed the same amount then as I do now.
Don't you think its odd that MS basically had a monopoly on online console gaming services but didn't raise the price once? Can you please explain that. How does that show you that they are anything b...
The majority of 360 owners don't care.
I talk to plenty of them that don't visit N4G. All they say is" I use XBL so much that its not a big deal."
And its awesome you can use PSN for free, but it just isn't the same. IT is AMAZING FREE service and Sony is the shit for making it so good, but I have both services and XBL is still worth paying for. No matter how much N4G PS3 fanboys want to complain, it is inexpensive.
As s...
@MAiku
Yeah Kevin Butlers PS3 commercials are good. And they stick in your head, but I just don't understand how you can honestly say that the Halo live action trailers are bad and how that shows that MS is bad ad campaigning. The lack of any other type of ad campaigns for 360 and 360 games are what shows that MS is bad at campaigning.
"Yet which one stuck in your head and stood out the most."
There have been 10+ Kevin Butler ads an...
"at least Sony makes the AD campaign funny while MS in the case of HALO doesn't even show a game... They make a movie! Live action "
So Sony is better at ad campaigning for the PS3 because they have funny commercials with Kevin Butler making jokes, but MS is not because they have a live action trailer (which are pretty awesome) for one game?
The Kevin Butler commercials are really funny, but you are really going to try and say that Halo comm...
kasasensei
still more than PSN and its free
fanboy moderators ftw
chill son
I have XBL
I usualy defend it, and I have had the service for 7+ years. Lighten up.
I'm not going to stop payign for XBL, but can I make a joke?
