    Why not? Would it have been smart for Sony to announce everything about their online service with enough time for MS to copy what they didn't have already?

    No.

        so what you're saying is, Sony has an original idea for their "Live Service". Sony is not going to copy anything from MS? You, my friend, have lost it.


        You better hope that PS3 is all it's being hyped to be or you're going to eating crow 3 times per day, 7 days per week, twice on Sunday. I can't believe you have so much faith in a company that has been nothing but big on talk and small on substance when it comes to their consoles.

            If you read what I said about Sony matching all features of Xbox Live, what would that tell you? Yes, that Sony copied MS. Apparently that didn't register with some.

            Anyway, I'm not here to argue. If Sony means everything they have "unofficially" said thus far, I hope we all get a chance to experience it. It would be great for the online gaming universe.

                Just like Microsoft did with the 360, right. Unfortunetly, MS didn't put a consumer alrert on the box that informed people the system may only work for a few weeks before you have to send it in for a new one. I know there are those of you who claim you have never had a problem since you bought your 360 at lauch, but you know you have been frozen up playing a game before once or twice. The specs are the same in each one.

                A lot of people realize now they should have waited and have begun selling their systems (isn't that right ExtremeGamer?).

                  LOL, you are the most uninformed person I've ever seen. You didn't read the post on why he was selling it, so we'll leave it at that. I really hope the PS3 is the end all be all, if it's not, we may have to put you on suicide watch.

                  And oh yeah, I have played by 360 for hours every single day since launch, so probably over 200 hours into the system now, not a single freeze or lock up.

                  You don't own a 360, so you have no idea. You haven't played one either probably, you hate MS, it's obvious. You are in love with the PS3 without ever seeing an in game video on it. There are fan boys, then there are FANBOYS. You my friend, fall into the latter.

                    No, that's not true. My 360 has NEVER froze or locked up on me playing any game. Nor has it froze/locked up in the dashboard. It's been running flawlessly since I bought it.

                    So please don't make statements such as this which are 100% wrong.

                      HA!

                      Sure.

                      You don't own a 360, so you have no idea. You haven't played one either probably, you hate MS, it's obvious. You are in love with the PS3 without ever seeing an in game video on it. There are fan boys, then there are FANBOYS. You my friend, fall into the latter.
                      No, I cancelled my pre-order at EB in August. I didn't by into the hype for long. I have had 0 regrets, and glad I didn't waste my money.

                      All you can say is "probably." Probably is what you rely on. Probably is all you got. I have indeed played NBA 2K6. COD2, PGR, all before and enough to "probably" have an opinion on the 360. If I hadn't played it, I "probably" wouldn't have room to talk about it.

                      Actually, you are in love with the 360. You are, and you know it, but won't admit it. I have indeed stated I prefer the PS3 over the 360 (many times in fact).

                      The truth is, there are FANBOYS...... and then there's you, Mr. Moderator. Self-explanatory.

                          Ummm, from one Sony fan to another, I wouldn't be making statements such as this until we have a flawless PS3 in hand. Maybe you don't remember or have forgotten, but the PS2 was pretty defective when it launched. Sony admitted to using cheap parts and then re-designed the PS2 with better parts and even marked the new boxes of PS2's with an X in the bottom right hand corner to let gamers and sellers know that this system is one made with better parts. After this, we still seen some defective consoles, about the same amount that the 360 is reporting, but it took some major problems for Sony to get to that point.

                          I am looking forward to the PS3, but I hope that Sony learned from their mistakes last year, and the problems that the 360 is having.

                            The ps2 is still pretty defective. It's cheaply made and it breaks way too easily.

                              Probably and hope is all you have right now. The PS3 will probably be good. I hope the online service is better than Live, I hope it doesn't have launch problems like the last 3 Sony launches, It might have better graphics.

                              So, now you are calling me a liar on my 360?

                              I enjoy my 360, great system. Loved my Xbox. Love my PS2. Love my DS... but yeah.

                              Again, I don't believe you've played a 360, I think you read other forums and post info here.

                              Like I said, I hope the PS3 is good, just for your sake. I've never met a single person more in love with something they've never seen, just read rumors about in my life.

                              It's one thing to be hyped for a system, but you take it to a unhealthy level.
