I'm on both, run for the hills.

I'll give you the mic thing alright, it is nice not hearing preteens screaming cursing and singing like XBL, but its a bit to quiet.

and XBL is about €55 here, same price of a game, you may say its worth it but i think with the prices games are as it is, its a joke to ask for more to use what is 'included' in the game itself.

if XBL got multi-chat then I would favour it, but at the moment its just not far enough ahead to boast about.

The problem with me is I get bored of games quickly, the main games I played on XBL in the last 12 months, were PES '08, halo3 and COD4.

I whored Halo3 the week it came out, COd4 around crimbo holidays when I got the time, and PES for several weeks in late autumn early winter.
Now you may say I was just unlucky or w/e, but all I know is for half the time I actually had time to play COD over crimbo XBL was severly screwed,and down for long times(why we got undertow) Then with halo3 the week it came out XBL was pretty much overloaded and there was sever lag for everyone and again down time(I remember doing it with TTK that week so its not BS) and PES never worked, that was mainly konamis fault, but it was unplayable and still is online.

Now someone who plays every day all year will tell me that I am biast as i got bad times, but they are the times that I got the time, and the way I play games is whore them when they come out then never play them again, its my way and its fine. BUT from that reasoning I look at XBL and really see a PoS online setup. Im aware XBL had issues because of so many people using it for halo3 and cod4 but that doesnt matter I play €60 for a game then that again for an online service, i expect when i waste 2 hrs on the 360 for it to work, I dont wana have to spend that 2 hrs moaning about it not working and really feeling like im wasting time. just not on.

Thats why even though PSN has major problems and isnt as far ahead as XBL ,when I do use it the odd time its free and it works, so it suits me to the ground.
