I hope PSN gets better and pushes Live to a free service, but Live is less than $4 a month as it is. It's really not a big deal. That same $4 won't buy you a gallon of gas, a six pack of beer or a McD's happy meal. Chump change.

As of today I have a new reason to favor Live....Shane's on PSN.

Depends on the game, Karmz. Some games have better online integration than others. On F1, Resistance and Warhawk, you can invite and read messages from within the game's menus themselves, just not during gameplay. I know it's still Xbox 1 standard, but it's better than seeing Alex naked.
