[IGN] GTA IV looks and runs BETTER on PS3

[Neil]

Lol, the Xbox 360 gets so many sales because it dirt cheap, yet to get a half-decent experiance you need to fork out £40 odd quid to get Live. Plus they mess up all the time...I don't even want to guess how many 360's the average user is going to get through until the next gen.

And no, you don't know it's crap until it's released. For example, Halo 3.

You can tell if something is pointless, you bought a PS3 to play games on it, HOME is a virtual world where you chat, make your little guy look good and make a room, which you can do on habbo and just about any chat client, the difference is PS3 allows it to have fancy graphics, it still has no real purpose, all people will ever use it for is probably for clan meetings or something, which isn't exactly a big deal

You get more than a half-decent experience from paying £40 a year for xbox live, it's well worth the money
To be quite honest I haven't got a problem with an xbox breaking, yes they're unrealiable, they are pretty badly made but I get what I paid for, I didn't buy it to sit and play about in a chat client, obviously that isn't available to the 360 but if it was it still wouldn't interest me, I bought it to play games, I will buy a PS3 in a few weeks hopefully to play the games, I bought a Wii for the games, when I get a PS3 and HOME is released I will download it, see what it's like then delete it to save the space for game installs, my opinion - Home will be as useless as every other chat client.

I got a fair bit of play time out of Halo 3.

The 'strikes' your coming up with are barely better. Definitly not a significant difference.

So HOME's just like some random little chat thing where you can do pretty much **** all? Clutching at straws against LIVE if you ask me.

It's not just a chat room :rolleyes: It's bringing all the achievements and stuff and places where we can download extra things for games. R* themselves have said they will be using Home to bring us DLC. The reason for the client is to make it easier to meet and communicate with your freinds, because atm our system for that is pretty crap.

So its like a more time consuming version of the LIVE marketplace? Instead of selecting something you get to walk upto it, and then buy it? The joy...

It's like habbo, same sort of features like customize your guy but I bet most of the stuff costs, make a room, which will also cost for furniture but you can watch game trailers on it but it's got nothing really useful that you can't already do on PSN

Edit - Except for being able to meet up and chat without actually play a game

No, because we also have the PSS

I hate the PSS...It's so annoying trying to use, well I found it annoying...Why not just do what MS did and put it like "demos" "game trailers" "arcade games" "ps1 games" or something..

Have you used the new store? I find that alot better

I donno, I have no idea what the old one was, I just couldn't work it though...It's kinda simple but just not too obvious by listing in genres and stuff :S

The new store is alot different to that now The Wii store is easier to use though, but that's another kettle of fish

HOME looks good, it brings together mucking around with friends in a virtual world and achievements and stuff. Although it would be useful if you could compare achievements without it, have to wait and see though.
