Helium: The 2000s saw the demise of Sega in the game console industry, and then the rise of another perhaps more potent player. In their place, Microsoft emerged with new and exciting game console. (Culture)

I want to know why the PSN "doesn't even come close to xbox live" that in itself is bullshit and I stopped watching after wards.
BeaArthur  +   1084d ago
It's called an opinion.
Wrathman  +   1084d ago
why did you stop watching?is it because your in denial?or because you cant stand the truth?

aww poor baby..do you need a hug?would that make you feel better?
mal_tez92  +   1084d ago
I think he means: "In terms of price, PSN doesn't even come close to xbox live"

As far as both services go, PSN has some games with dedicated servers which allow for lag free games for 32 - 60, or even 256 players with MAG

XBL has more advanced communication features and feels more structured

But in NO WAY should either of them cost money. So PSN win hands down as it is free. Also dedicated servers on huge games are awesome!
Anarki  +   1084d ago
Yeah an opinion in which he didn't back up. So far the xboxlive only has one thing over the PS3, which is 1 feature. That is cross game chat. Everything else is similar.

Froma personal point of view, I've played both, and I'm yet to lag on the PS3. Even with my wag160n router(which has severe problems with the ps3(google it if you don't believe me).

@wrathman; Wtf are you talking about? I have a xbox360 and ps3, my xbox has a reoccuring 12month live subscription... Why would I be in denial?

It's an industry catchphrase that people rarely challenge because they don't think for themselves.

I've spent plenty of quality time on PC, 360, and PS3's online setups over the years, and the only major difference is that I had to pay a yearly fee for one of them.

Yawn

@Wrathman
a hug wouldn't make him feel better, a kick on on your nut(s) would definitely make him feel much better :)
Cold 2000  +   1084d ago
IMO PS2 and 360.
RedDevils  +   1084d ago
imo
ps2 ps3 and maybe the 360 but most games I like on the 360 is mostly on the PC, so I would say the PC, since the pc got way better games than the 360

ps2
sid4gamerfreak  +   1084d ago
Come on, stop approving this bs. Flame bait not accepted in n4g!!
BeaArthur  +   1084d ago
Agreed, it's just some dude on his couch talking about what game systems he likes. This is probably the least news worthy piece of crap I have ever seen. I could go home and make a video of me playing games and it would get approved here. The title could be "random dude plays his PS3".
nikkisixx2  +   1084d ago
All gaming consoles were great, except for gamecube.
BeaArthur  +   1084d ago
I kind of liked the Gamecube. They had some solid titles for it.

Gamecube is better than the Wii.

My Wii never gets played. It just sits there.. taunting me... keeping me up at night... it haunts me!!!!

I will be getting SMG 2 after hearing so much about it.

I just think if you compare it to the regular xbox and ps2 at the time it was not a number 1 buy for the majority of people.
JussBlazn  +   1084d ago
ps3 is the first playstation he's ever owned...any and all credibility he had just went out the window. though i agree, ps3 is the better console.
FiftyFourPointTwo  +   1084d ago
The console that only does everything. :)
wazzim  +   1084d ago
I know,
the Dreamcast rocks. =)
FanboyAttack  +   1084d ago
SEGA net ushered in the online revolution. Dreamcast was the most revoulutionary system ever. Was sad when it went kaput.
FanboyAttack  +   1084d ago
Lemme sum this up for you

" Some unknown turd tells what console he likes" - The End

Who gives a sh!t.
NnT3291  +   1084d ago
Ps2 for me. I still remember how excited I was when I bought it back in 2002.
BIGBOSS08  +   1084d ago
you current gen owners can argue all you like, the best console ever and BY FAR is SONY'S PLAYSTATION 2!!!!
OO7  +   1084d ago

Well the ps3 has a better game library and everyone can play online as long as you have a connection So of course ps3 is the best. With hardware that allows for bigger better games It's undeniable. I still don't know what the big deal about xbox lives cross game chat is. So you have an easier way to connect to friends........so what? I can still connect to those friends with text through the ps3. PS3 really lacks no capability where the 360 is concerned while the 360 does lack some of the capabilities do to underdeveloped technology.
saimcheeda  +   1084d ago
For me
its the PlayStation 2
ghostgaming  +   1084d ago
Best - PS2

Worst - sorry guys, but its the wii. It has limited system power, poor online service, and no {non-gaming} entertainment factors.

Most Underrated - Dreamcast - it was awesome

Most important - Xbox, because it fueled MS into gaming
