Xbox Live is "More Juvenile" Than PlayStation Network

[Grey_Focks]

nobody on PSN uses mics, so there really is no way to tell how mature they are, other than a teabag-to-kill ratio.

then again, it seems he's willing to just ignore This [http://www.escapistmagazine.com/news/view/97538-Female-Gamer-Sexually-Assaulted-While-Playing-PS3]

That's probably due to the fact that more people own an Xbox 360 than a PS3.

The individual people are just the same juvenile fucktards.

its Ironic.... I was just downstairs playing L4D2, and everyone was happy and just having a good time! Yet a PS3 fanboy friend of mine swears like a drunk trucker. Generalizations are usually wrong (yaay! more irony!!!)

 

[Tattaglia]

Wow, I didn't expect the developer of a PS3 exclusive to come out and say something like that!

I know, right? What wacky shenanigans can developers get mixed up in next?

Seriously though, this is a great way of garnering attention for MAG. Rabid PS3 fanboys and 360 nuts rejoice, for you have fuel!

i dont get how you can think that

their game consoles


they have online games

idiots get on and call everyone names it'll always happon on any game any console

The only difference between Xbox Live and PSN is that fewer PSN users have a mic.

I bet that if everyone who bought a PS3 got a mic for free there would be just as much swearing as on Xbox live.

actually a survey in 2009 showed that 87 percent of x box's purchased were for 21 and under whereas the ps3's was just under 30 percent (29.6)

i think that this statistic gives a clear impression of the language difference as most x box live players are younger and more likely to just start swearing at one another.... SHOOP DA WHOOP

Still, the demographic of "People who speak a foreign language" and "People who you can't understand shit from" is more than enough to ensure that online on PSN won't be more perfect than Xbox Live.

 

[SantoUno]

Yet another PS3 representative being a fanboy.

Yeah XBL probably does have more assholes but that's simply because has a mic. Obviously PSN would have the same amount if they had mics.

But the stupidest thing he said was that just because of that MAG isn't suited for XBL players because apparently they wouldn't be able to work together.

Which is such a blessing... But you're right, just the same type of people.

 

[Yog Sothoth]

If by " "more juvenile" he actually meant more online supported games, a larger player base and an overall more stable and superior network, then yes, I agree 100%...

 

[Pimppeter2]

Developers who are openly fanboys deserve bops to the head.

If Microsoft was throwing money there way like Sony was we'd be getting the exact opposite statement.

Wow, I didn't expect the developer of a PS3 exclusive to come out and say something like that!

/thread, And whats up? Haven't seen you in a while

 

[rokkolpo]

i refuse playing online with people who can response to me.

i'd rather just shoot them in the head or get shot in the head and call it a day.
not those long arguments about the words Gay and Fuck.

 

[AceDiamond]

Yeah sorry but when every PSN user has a mic then maybe you're allowed to try and compare

But really, how is any argument in favor of PSN going to work when PSN has the troller's paradise known as Playstation Home?

 

[Treblaine]

I've played on a fair amount of XBL and PSN plus PC online a lot. My rank of "sociability":

1. PC
2. PS3
3. XBox 360

However there are exceptions such CSS used to attract some truly psychotically foul mouthed players but they have all mysteriously disappeared as of fairly recently (MW2?) and all too often on 360 I just can't freaking hear the insults people are shouting due to those crap bundled mics or another poor connection.

I mean consider the preview featurettes that game-trailers hosted for Gears of War 2, Cliff Blezinski and the rest of the dev team opined that they fully expected and encouraged players to hurl verbal abuse at each other when killing and that it was "part of the fun" or some crap like that.

 

[ryai458]

you PS3ers have fun on MAG Jan 26 while us PC and Xbox360 people are going to be rocking it on ME2 a much better game (I think PR guy is jealous he can't play ME2 since its not on PS3).

yeah lol. i think its all down to personal preference but mine is ps3... i have noticed that alot of players i meet online are non English speaking on the ps3 for example

on...

lbp
most players i meet are dutch or danish


killzone
most players i meet are Japanese

and so on but i would rather listen to calm words i am unable to comprehend that violent slop which is bearly english itself

 

[SinisterDeath]

As stated, the only difference is few people have mics on the PS3.

As for the game itself, the only thing stopping the 360 from playing it is exclusivity rights.

I see this as an advantage.

PS3 mics, aren't cheap. $60 for a bluetooth head set? Maybe $40?
The younger kids are going to look at that price tag and say... 2 Games, or 1 game & 1 head set?
Those that can afford it are either Kids who have money, Or adults who have a job.
This means that more 'mature' people are going to be talking, or at least those who think of themselves as better leaders. And in those kind of games, I'd follow the guy with the mic, and if only 1 guy in your squad has one, Thats far less confusing then when you have 16 people yapping away, no idea wtf the 'game plan is' since everyones doing there own thing.

In the pro leagues, They all ussually have '1' guy who leads the pack, And the only time the others are really allowed to say anything is when they are being flanked.

Also,nothing more annoying then 13 year olds with high pitched voices.
Specially if htey can kick your ass cause they've been playing console shooters since they were 4, and you've been playing PC shooters since Doom...

(And give it a few more years, my 6 year old niece is going to be capping frags in the pro's asses.)
