@ Da Truth
That's funny. Back in July of 2007 I could not open a 360/MS article without seeing the comments section riddled with the PS3 fanboys. I too wondered what was wrong with these people. It amazes me how the grass in one yard can look brown and another looks green depending on which side of the fence you are on.

LMAO. That is terrible. I must have been one of the lucky ones back when I had Xbox Live Gold. I never experienced any of that on PSN for that matter. My son used his allowance to pay for a Live Gold account and so far has not experienced anything too bad unless he is not being truthful with me. I try to listen in when I can and I told him he will lose access to Live if I catch him carrying like some that I have heard on YouTube.
All of this love is making me feel funny inside. I've been gaming for roughly 30 years now and I have seen companies come and go. I know MS is not innocent and should be called out for their crap. On that same note, Sony may have earned their legacy in this business but that should not have given them reason to think they could get away with anything they wanted. I know there are many arguments that can be made up and down about this but the bottom line is that all of them only care about our...
Lol, you complete me.

It's your loss. I agree with some of what you said but for the most part this sounds much like a rant that I expect to hear from PS3 owners that say they don't want a 360.
It was the arrogance of Sony and so many of its supporters that I had/have an issue with. The console itself is a beast of a gaming machine.
You already know the answer to that. Anyway, kudos to Sony. I have a question now about my PS3 repair that cost me $157. Did Sony count the refurbished 60GB unit that they sent me as a new sale? Just wondering since some claim that MS does the same thing.
Edit: BTW, I think my 5 step plan works for sales arguments too, for all sides of this so called "console war."

Day 1 beta and day 1 purchase for me too. Bubble for giving props to my 5 step plan.
You and Jedward are still in step 1 I see. Keep going one step at a time.

1. Denial - "This can't be happening. The 360 was supposed to be dead by now."
2. Anger - "WTF, Halo is not supposed to look this good. Time to troll 360 news on N4G. There's no way I'm going to let them enjoy this without a fight!"

In this case free is better but who's paying $60 for Xbox Live? I no longer have Xbox Live because PSN gets the basics done for free but with a little research, you can find deals for the definitive online gaming service which is Xbox Live.
Bought mine new. It broke and I paid $ony $156 USD to get a second hand replacement.
MS paying to keep Gears exclusive is not a bad thing. After all, Gears came to life on a MS console. They should pay to keep it exclusive with the potential to attract new buyers to their consoles.
So what's wrong with that?
@ ViciousBoston
GTA's following is spread out. Would you feel the same way if Agent was being made exclusively for the 360? Would PS3 fans go rushing out to buy a 360?
@ LevelHead
Nice idea but I agree with IdleLeeSiuLung that it would not work in practice. Maybe time will prove otherwise.
Looking forward to more great gaming and entertainment from my 360.
I hope it becomes a PS3 exclusive.
Gran Turismo and Metal Gear.
