Xbox Live is "More Juvenile" Than PlayStation Network

What tha... huh?Yog Sothoth said:
You do realise that MAG has a TWO HUNDRED AND FIFTY SIX player cap? With Dedicated servers? And SO many other PS3 exclusive games have low-lag dedicated servers like Warhawk as well as Resistance FoM and R2. Resistance 2 had a freaking 64 player cap on huge low lag maps as well as eight player cooperative playthrough way back in early 2008 and it's still going strong.
What the hell are you talking about "less online support" or "more stable and superior". I mean big titles like Halo 3 have a player cap of only 16. The pay-wall for XBL blocks out the majority of XBox 360 owners from online multiplayer, encouraging a huge proportion to never go online. Also it prevents any game adding casual online access like with Demon's Souls there there is subtle but significant interaction between all the players around the world.
I think the lack of bundled mics is good, acts like an idiot barrier. You'd only go to the trouble of getting a USB mic if you really wanted to contribute something constructive, the same applies for PC gaming as well. The bundled 360 mic is just annoying, especially if you play with headphones and I wish I could buy a better quality mic.
Only idiots buy USB mics, when you got a Blue tooth capable system.Treblaine said:You don't need a Bluetooth headset, one of these USB mics for $15 should be enoughSinisterDeath said:
You know, wireless all the way?
A nice cure for this would be the ability of selecting any age range and a gameplay maturity level for yourself, then the teams only being made up of people of similar stats.
Well, I'm not, but if MAG came to XBOX it would be an massive free for all. Players would not be willing to plan strategies, and it would pretty much come down to ever team randomly shooting at each other.
Well for one, Mass Effect 2 comes out on the same day. You can bet what I'll be playing when MAG releases.
OT: I personally play multiplayer games seriously, to work with a team and, through superior skill, coordination, and strategy, defeat the enemy. And most people on Xbox Live simply don't do that. It's full of idiots, noobs, and selfish jerks. Not to say a game like MAG couldn't turnout well on it: I think it would work fine (namely because not everyone on Xbox Live would work well with it, but the number that would is probably similar to the total number of people on the Playstation Network
). But it is true that Xbox Live has plenty of immature people.

This is what I have to say to the developer of PS3.
[HEADING=1] NO SHIT SHERLOCK![/HEADING]
The Xbox 360 owners get a free mic with the purchase of an Xbox 360. which is mostly 12 year olds and lower because it is cheaper (like someone else said) and about 99.5% of those 12 year olds and lower are shit heads that like to swear, call other people noobs when they die, talk about how big their dicks are (when they are probably small), and generally just be a douche because they think they are cooler than everyone else in the entire planet.
I just mute everyone in the game so I don't have to listen to any of this shit.
So in conclusion, you must be pretty fucking proud of yourself PS3 for figuring out something other people have figured out ever since the Xbox 360 ever came out.

Warhawk...? What's that, never heard of it...Treblaine said:
Yes, the player cap in MAG is impressive, but I still think that Live is the better service of the two... Xbox and PSN have about the same number of subscribers last I checked, ergo Sony's free service is just comparable to Xbox Live with it's fees... What does that tell you?
Also, there are a number of games on Xbox that have dedicated servers as well... Left 4 Dead is the first that comes to mind, but I know that there are others...
EDIT: Also want to remind people here that Xbox Live costs less than $5 a month... If you're gonna pay hundreds of dollars for a console & games, you should be able to easily afford the fees for online service.
Oh, I've been around, I've just had my face as a avatar for a while so nobody recognized mePimppeter2 said:
Guaranteed there are going to be a armada more of Fucknuts on XBL but I can tell you with all the hype that MAG is getting, they'll all be going to the PS3 to ruin it for the PSN users. Thanks for taking the bullet on this one guys. Now I can probably play L4D 2 in peace without hearing some would be- Screech yell "FUCKING NOOOB TAKIN MAH KILL IMZ RAPE YOUR MOMZ" (Yeah, I shit you not).
I agree with you, Have fun! we will be chilling out with 2 disks of storyline, and me with an M490 Blackhawk. Because it shoots a fucking giant ball of dark energy and transports you into a toilet (Commercial reference..HAHA NO COOKIE FOR YOU!)ryai458 said:
i doubt it. most of the little kids would just lie about their age (like i do). because the age would also not let them play all of the mature games. then most games would lose alot of players toobjj hero said:
I'm going to go ahead and be really harsh here and go out on a limb and say you prefer the 360, and don't play on the PS3 much, if at all.funksobeefy said:
Am I correct?
Anyway, I've played online on both systems (betas and finished games Funk) and found that what the guy is saying isn't entirely innacurate, maybe it isn't the same setting, but some stereotypes got there for a reason, even if it is cruel.
[sub]For the mods, I said some, not all stereotypes, most stereotypes were made by dicks, but even 360 players characterise most people on xbox live as whiny complaining people.[/sub]
