LIVE is superior to PSN for online. After all these years and many to come, Microsoft is going to outperform Sony in that arena. It is their core (besides marketing) strength they bring to the game industry, but they do it better or as good as anybody across any industry.
But that alone doesn't define the experience for many gamers. It is still the value of the games for the dollar that is going to win over gamers. For that reason PS Plus is such a better value...more ...
"Meanwhile, my Xbox is still collecting dust, and those $50 for Live were spent for nothing because I'm not even using it."
That's your problem not your 360. Show it some love.

Most of those I wouldn't consider for myself personally. Others I wouldn't consider full-featured games exclusive to the Vita. That's left goes into the twenty.
From your list I would consider Unit 13, Orgarhythm Frobisher and Kickbeat to be exclusives, but not Sound Shape or Dragon's Crown. They are on the PS3 too and I'd rather have the experience on my TV than a handheld. Escape Plan, Dokuro, Smart As, Reality Fighter are n...
I have one simple rule when it comes to society's disapproval of things I enjoy: F--k 'em.
I whipped mine out in public and started playing with it. A few young ladies saw me and asked to play with it too. They were all into it too, so much they drew a crowd. Guys were patting me on the back, wishing they had one like it. It is pretty awesome I guess.
...the Vita I mean.
If I can get at least 20 games for my Vita in the next 2 year, I'll be happy. Full featured games that I can't get on any other console.
Lumines and Wipeout don't count, as I have those elsewhere, but I want my GTA stories, Ghosts of Sparta, KZ Liberation, AC Bloodlines (which sucked), etc...but I want my LocoRocos and Patapons too. That's what people really are looking for. Original IP...not necessarily cute cartoony games.
That will only ...
Random mewlings:
Here's hoping for a stateside release...
Ortho should license this game on its commercials...
This game makes me feel itchy...
I thought MAG was absolutely awesome; I got the most out of that game than any other this gen. I remember running down a street in Domination, with like 20 bullet tracers whizzing around me from random directions at any one time. I thought this probably close to a real battle as one could get. Multi-player in other FPS feel like a simulation of a practice combat now.
The price is high which prompts one to ask how many online games do you plan to purchase. I have made money back from PS+, it drives most of my game purchases. I've saved well over a hundred the past year alone. Sure there are games I wouldn't have played otherwise, but some turned out to be real gems.
He did mention gameplay on the Vita as well? He said it isn't a shooter, but then what? Puzzles?
Two words. Mon. Taj.
Don't forget House!
Yeah he's honest. He pretty much confessed that Sony's marketing stinks. "Oh, all those Vita games? We really under-represented that!" Just like in advertising.
At least they got COD on Vita. That's the brass ring for my E3 - hoping for some gameplay before the week.
I was good before, now I'm better.
Did anyone buy a PSP? Remember that? I was buying my first one when it was as old as the Vita is now. It had dick for games when I bought it and for the next six months.
The Vita has a Minis, PSP games that I haven't played yet, and Resistance, Nathan Drake, Wipeout, Unit 13, Marvel vs. Capcom, Gravity Daze. I'm not bitchin' at all about Vita games. I'm good.
Cool. I haven't bought Infamous 2 yet.
I had hopes, but this is nothing like Wii U or even Vita. It is like Windows Mobile XBox functionality shoehorned on to Android and iOS. Feels like Microsoft's surrender to the current mobile ecosystem.
How many people buy foreign games anymore, especially Lik-Sang being closed? Still it shows that most people can get by with one console.
Regardless if I have all the consoles or not, I'm going to miss out on games. I don't have the time, and I have other things to do with my money. So I just games on my PS3. I have only wanted Gears and Mass Effect. I have played the former on a friends system, and the later is on PS3.
So don't feel sorry fo...
Diversity?
Shovelware...? Alot of it was I remember.
Superman was originally a supervillain with telepathic powers and centered around the heroes who tried to stop him. So what. He's convoluted and he stinks.
Steam is pretty awesome.
