1. Playstation HOME. Home offers a rich avatar graphical interface for
player interaction, activities, and trophies. Oh and can't forget the posh
apartments.

HAHAHAHAH It'll take you 15 minutes to 'walk' to a room to join a
game!

What ***!


2. Downloadable retro Playstation content (i.e. PS1 games).

Oh, as if you cant download retro games on the 360 too. Pfffft.


3. FREE, FREE, FREE! The PSN is completely free unlike Xbox LIVE.

WRONG

XBOX Live Silver is FREE FREE FREE!


4. Introduced downloadable multitasking/background downloading.


WRONG - 360 had this before PSN

5. Integrated web browser with the PSN store set up similarly for a layout
that most internet gamers are familiar with. PSN thereby branches out from
its own system to the world wide web (gosh, that's so 1995).

GOSH how 1995 . I'd rather have something designed for the present,
like XBOX Live. Marketplace!



6. Future integration of Video On Demand, Music on Demand, Singstar.

Oh how funny! XBOX Live has MOVIES and TV SHOWS ON DEMAND!!!

It has since early this year!!

What does the PS3 have? *** downloads for a game.


7. Easier and cheaper access to the network for Wi-fiers. All PS3s come
standard with wireless capability, whereas it costs $99 for a 360 (yes I
shelled out the cash for my xbox)

Or you could just plug it into the router directly and not suffer
lag.

By the way, yoru precious PS3 costs $100 more to start off with, and
you dont get a headset and high-def cables int he bundle for that
price :-)


8. Folding@Home. Using the power of the PS3 and the PSN users can contribute
to the understanding and possible cure of diseases such as cancer, diabetes,
and MS. Come on, PSN should win hands down for this humanitarian effort.


Oh wow - this really is a system seller!

Save cancer victims by running a high-energy device 24/7 and thus
killing trees with all the carbon dioxide used to generate
electricity!

SAVE CANCER, KILL THE ENVIRONMENT!

9. Frequent firmware updates. Some might gawk at frequency and like only the
large chunky and infrequent updates from MSoft. But the slow yet steady
addition of new bits and bobs is fun.

Yeah, I love how Sony releases slow to download multi-hundred meg
updates just so you can add small, almost insignificant features like
adding backgrounds or using a Japanese only payment card system, or
correcting RGB output, rather than one all-encmpasing update twice a
year that brings wanted features like full 1080p support or a better
layout for the XBOX Live Marketplace....


10. PSN has already accomplished much of what LIVE has done/has in 9 months.
LIVE has existed for nearly 5 years (circa 2002).

Cross-game invites? No.
Achievements viewable anywhere? No.
Auto-player matching? No.
Extensive online statistics? No.
Jump-in multi-player gameplay? No.
Voice standard in all games? No.
Universal interface for all online game features? No.

That's not matching, that's trailing. Consistently.


10.1. Free. Oh wait I already said that. oh well, it's a b(l)iggy.


CRap attempt by a PS3 troll. You forgot so much.

As of August, that difference will be $150-$250!
