Hate me for this one again like you did for my other article, if you don’t want to face the facts now, don’t even read this article! For another load of truth is about to be unveiled!
All I hear is people saying is “Online play is where it’s at”, “It’s all about the online”, “Online is what it’s all about” “The PS3 isn’t up to date with the online play” and other remarks like so. How ignorant are these people that they still think theres no one or little people online on PSN? Like many people say, its not about the content on the stores, but the online experience! So why do they just go out and spring for a PS3? PS3 has a big install base of users who play on PSN, and with games like DC Universe and The Agency, its only going to expand on this, seeing how players will be able to join the fight and play with there copy of those games for their PC.
Maybe all those remarks would apply to the PSN 2 years ago, but since 2007, the PSN has really picked itself up. Yeah yeah, the PSN still doesn’t offer a wide variety of music (So you can listen through your XMB, it offers too much for add-on content for video games though) or as many exclusive games for the network as XBL does. So what, the 360 has so many games, many that were horrible, that they deleted them completely off there network, the many few that survived, still aren’t the best of downloadable games, they deleted the ones that weren’t selling well. so much for all that great content huh? As for the music issue, so what, you would still have to pay for the music you wanted when you can just import that music to your PS3 from your PC via flash drive/SD card/Disks and many others, and you do that for free! Besides, gaming isn’t much about music if at all. Now if your worried about movies, don’t even worry about that, just because Sony doesn’t have The “Great Experience of NetFlex”, doesn’t mean anything. Sony still has a wide variety of movies, T.V. shows, and Anime (Shyeah… anime), anyways Sony can say they offer Sony Pictures and Columbia Pictures, can Microsoft say this? I think not, since Sony removed there movies from the streaming on NetFlix to the 360!
Now, finally, about the games with the online playability. What, you think if you get games like COD:WAW, GTA4, Madden, Killzone 2, RE:5 (if the rumors are true about 16 p multi-player), etc. that there won’t be anyone online? I can assure you there will be lobbies full of players getting ready for some head to head games with you! There is no other factor in this that 360 owners that don’t call them selves “fanboys” can say “PSN isn’t up with online, thats why I still haven’t bought one”. If there’s people missing from the PSN, it’s all of you who decide that the PSN isn’t as fully flexed as the XBL. The only problem you can still bring up is, “The PS3 takes to long to update, but guess what, thats usually once a month, if not once every two months… before it would be once every other week, but it hasn’t been like that for a good long while, and as apposed to the 360s constant updates every time you put in a game for another go! PS3 has more Firmware updates, but 360 has more game updates! equals out don’t it?
And if you try to bring up that the PS3 lags, don’t even get me started, I play 360 to you know, and they both have lag! This all depends on the people and there connection speeds! At least you can’t use lag machines on the PS3 i’ll tell you what! Not just that, but remember the other features that PSN also has!

Anyways XBL is better because it has a large console base and PS3 hasn't.
