hey guys.. im just wondering which console has better features in terms of online gaming... i have a 360 and i've tried xbox live on it and it looks good... the only thing i'm concerned about is that i have to pay to play online where as the ps3.. it's all free of charge.... but it kept me thinking whether ps3's online features are just as good as the 360.. i just wanted to know what's better cuz i wanna play online obviously.. anways.. hope u guys can help me out...
Well to be honest they both have their advantages. You will pay to Play on the Xbox 360, but the library of games is stellar compared to the PS3. The PS3 is free and has great games, but the lack of games just does not keep it going for me. As of right now I have to go with the 360.
Actually once PS3's HOME comes out you will never be able to compare it to Xbox LIVE anymore because LIVE focuses on chat and online gaming whilst HOME is going to focus on online community and online gaming so the only way you could compare them when HOME comes out is through online games... on which one would have better reception... but as of now reception through online games is better on the 360 because more often than not when I play resistance online I always get connection errors a little later in the game and I already have a fast internet connection... so right now I give online gaming to 360... but who knows... maybe Sony will find out where they're going wrong and fix it to give us a more fluid online experience... and anyway HOME is going to be an online community and not a chatroom which means that it would suck if you were online but the people you are friends with aren't whilst in LIVE even though you don't know the person you could easily join in to their match if they allow you which is more user friendly if you ask me...
i own a ps3, after selling an xbox elite. the ps3 online features are better. the ps3 hardware is not locked to ms either, so you could upgrade if you have downloaded loads of free trailers and stuff. the ps3 is doesnt have as many great titles. but heavenly swords and resistance are brill
Right now the PS3's on-line capabilities aren't anywhere near as good as the 360's. However, the PS3 is working on their on-line interface called Home, which looks absolutely amazing. There is no release date as of yet, but once it goes live I think it will give XBox live some serious competition.
ps3 or xbox 360 for online gaming?
