Funny, much of these are non issues. Many repeat, others specific to games, not systems. Many occur on ALL systems. Probably less than 8 legit things here. Product placement in game is result of companies making games, not the systems. MS runs dedicated servers to support their onliners, where Sony doesn't.That is why there is a subscription fee.
Ultimately xbox offers its gamers far more games, content, accessories, features, everything than the competition, and instead of admitting it, fans of the rest find ways to complain about the stuff their not getting.
Some guysaying PS3 is better:
"360 has a TON of games, a lot more than PS3; but why is that? Simply, 360 has been out a much longer time than it's rival. It has, over time, amassed many times more games."
If you think back, the Original X-box came out after PS2, and had nearly twice the hardware, yet PS2 had more games + more fans, so all the PS fans said ``PS2 is better than X-box`` even though X-box was the superior machine. Now that the 360 has reversed the situation with PS3, the PS fans are now switching their story and saying what all the X-box fans were saying in the past about the Original X-box. X-box being the best at it`s time didn`t help it beat out PS2, and PS3 won`t beat out 360 for the same reason.
Same guy earlier:
"Some say PS3 has outrageous prices. I say it has extremely low prices. Why? Think of all the power that is contained inside a PS3. Far greater than any 360 ever. It should be MORE expensive (but thank Zeus it's not)."
The only reason the PS3 costs more than the 360 is sony is trying to give the illusion that their system is better than the 360 because it costs more , but that is not the case. MS worked with IBM on the 360, so although it is older than PS3, it took PS3 that much longer to come up with a system that could contend with it. The 360 has a low price attached to it because MS understands if they sell more systems, there will be more system owners to buy games, so they lose money on the systems ( a lot), where sony is content screwing their customers and destroying their own sales numbers as a result. That is why Sony continues to support and produce content for the PS2, so they can keep themselves afloat in sales. If they would reduce the inflated price of the PS3 and maybe throw a game or 2 in with it they would help themselves and their fans alot.
The one true thing PS3 has over 360 is the blue ray player, which is overrated anyways. Bluray is only worth while for a few movies like Transformers and Ironman.The majority of Bluray movies are ones that don`t matter anyways. Nobody wants to pay $30 for ``My Best Friend`s Wedding in Bluray. Buy the DVD for $6 instead. And why would you want to wear out your game drive watching movies anyways. You`re better off buying a 360 and a separate bluray player. It would be close to the same price as the PS3.
Oh, and lastly (sorry to go on so long), the reason so many of us xbox fans were getting angry on earlier is because we are passionate about our systems. They do so much for us and bring us so many joy. I `d sleep with it under my pillow if I wasn`t afraid of it falling off my bed in my sleep and breaking. I`m sure many PS and Wii fans are the same way with their systems too, so try to understand.
oh and btw i own ps3, wii, and xbox 360, tey are all good for there own reasons, and they all have there faults, and why does everyone complain about RROD ive had mine for over a year and the only time i got a RROD is becuase i plugged it in wrong. and after reading all the things about RROD i started spazzing becuase i thought that i had lost my xbox, my dad took a look and all it was was that is wasen't plugged in right.
