It's tough to deny that Xbox Live is a more refined service than the PlayStation Network in its current state. It has been around for almost 6 years, so you'd expect a higher level of service, especially when you're paying $50 a year. But the PSN has been making strides to recover lost ground through numerous firmware updates.
BLG writes, "Some of the most popular games have had a rough start, with some of them being downright unplayable.
Despite that, developers have managed to turn it around for them and make their game worth playing. Here are some games that had a rough start but were pretty great."
Sea of Thieves... I'm not disagreeing that the game has improved in terms of content. But I feel that the most significant change between now and its release is actually the public perception. Nowadays, most people are aware that the game is a multiplayer PvP-focused experience first and foremost, and not "Black Flag made by Rare". Consequently, people dismissing the whole experience because the single-player aspect is lacking or the story is plain are much less common.
Several years ago, i submitted an idea to Rare that would change up the mechanics of battling opponents in the game. whereby if you died in battle, you turned into a skeleton warrior and had to fight your way back to the land of the living. It was an interesting twist on respawning and would allow the player to experience both sides of a battle.
I keep hoping to see something like that get added to the game.

They aren't going to give more. We are talking about a company that has rereleased an 13 year old game at least 5 times.
Things are heating up in May a bit with Senua's Saga: Hellblade II, the Paper Mario TTYD remake, and a ton of promising indies. We pick the most interesting May games, from AAA to indie, so you can make sense of everything coming out.
Doesn't seem to be that bad of a month. Got a bit of something for everyone.
Please do not support braid anniversary edition. Don't support Phil phish, he's a very despicable person, a a cry baby.
One example

Wrong developer. Phil Phish was the developer behind Fez.
Jonathan Blow was behind Braid. If you're gonna cancel culture, don't take down the wrong indie...
Man, I don’t know why, but it also irks me when people try to tell others what to do. Fez was an awesome game, I couldn’t care less if the dev was a douche.
This is just extra cringe since the person actually doesn’t know what they’re talking about 🤦♂️
I wasn't cancel culturing shit. Phil phish is a complete douche. Did you bother to watch the video? Probably not.
I was wrong but call me cancel culture is just plain dumb also
Also crimson.
As you I'm human and we make mistakes. That was a mistake I mixed the games up. Shit happens. So go cringe yourself
Honest mistake, if you can watch that video and support the guy. Then I guess your in the same camp
You were wrong and that's that. Don't be so angry.
And yeah, that is a case example of cancel culture. It was a dozen years ago, he's apologized since, had Japanese developers rationalize with his remark, barely has done anything in the industry since Fez, and yet here you are, not even remembering the one game he made...
With in-game XMB and cross-game invites, there's not much on the gaming side of things that are very different between the two services. I'm sure both Sony and Microsoft will be debuting new features for their respective online platforms at E3 next month.
I can tell you all this right now XMB isn't going to offer you in game music for your games or internet access, either. When you try to boot a song from the xmb in game and resume play it exits out of the player all together.
Trust me.
Edit:
All I want is the option to change my ressolution while in game. That's it. I'll be 100% happy when that happens. Oh and they start tweaking the ps1 and ps2 upscaler again. I'd love to have a full screen fixed ratio like ps2 games are suppose to have. I have these absurd black bars on the sides of my screen and it pisses me off. If you make it normal then it stretches it out and looks like garbage.
"When you get here, I'll be gone" a wise man once said.
When PSN reaches Live capabilities, Live will be on another level.
I don't know why everyone cares so much about listening to music and talking to their friends. When I'm online, I just want to play. I don't want to chat with someone playing a different game.
