How fast is your connection?Quote:

Sony need to get this sorted for PS4. but my phat PS3 does look good.
That is true about the 360. It's usually just a few second process. The only time I have seen it take longer is when it's like Battlefield 3, when they have 1gb+ patches because they force DLC on you.
Ah well its fine for me.
I can't deny that. It's true that most Playstation 3 games take a long waiting process before you can play them. The good thing is that it's only needed once but since I play a variety of games, it can get annoying.Quote:

This. I could buy a new controller for about €30 or I could buy a new battery from amazon that has 3 times the charge capacity of the old one for €10. :D I will be doing this soon, as after 3 years of heavy usage, my batteries are losing their legs.Quote:

What would we talk about that I couldn't just send in an XMB message?...
And the ones who's phone number I have, well...I don't really have to explain that...
Same. I've never had the urge on XBL either even though the feature is there.Quote:

Sometimes it's just a big party, lol.
Yeah the cross game chat feature comes in handy for me. The only ones that I see dismissing it here are those with a major PS3 bias or some dont even own a 360 and are PS3 biased. I remember alot of PS3 fans here said all the same things about achievements until the trophy system came along and now suddenly its great and people even put trophy counts in their sigs. If 360 has it and PS3 doesnt its a useless feature. If PS3 gets it down the road then it suddenly becomes awesome. lol
Lol, yeah, just like when the 360 baised said that a hard drive in a console was not necessary... :lol: Now itīs suddenly awsome.Quote:

Yes...? But the claim was that it was not necessary and itīs not actually. Just like trophys, achivements, partychat, blu-ray and online, but some features seem more or less useful for different people.Quote:

Force feedback in steering wheels, that actually gives you a more realistic feeling thou. :)
I always thought a hdd was a good idea and thatīs why I got an xbox elite at launch and a ps3 60gb. The Elite is long gone and so is the 60gb hdd in my ps3. I now have 250gb xbox and a 320gb ps3. I like them both but I have no time to play all the games... :( I just recently finished Rage(picked it up again after a long time unfinished), got Hitman, AC3, Need for speed and Re6. There is not enough hours in a day !!
How do you guys manage to have time for all the gaming ?
Agree with everything u just said jvh.
I understood the first year with all the comparisons, but they r way past old now. Save them for the next gen. Just play what u like. They r both good consoles.

I'd never use it, I don't even use a mic in games that support them.
Awww....did my comment hurt your feelings that much? Feel better now? lolQuote:

I copied your way of posting to show that it is always two sides and that this kind of argument is pointless.... If that translates to hurt feelings for you, then I do apologize for hurting your feelings. It was not my intention to do so.Quote:
