Xbox Live has been updated to include a shop. In the Microsoft shop you can download arcade games, download demos for games, rent movies, download new content for games and wallpapers for your menu. The Sony Playstation 3 now has it’s own shop, the Playstation Store. In this store you can download old and new games, download new content for the games, and put your old Playstation games onto your system directly through the store.
Xbox Live allows you to play and communicate with friends from around the world. In games you can play with up to 18 people. The PS3 took this to a new level. On the Playstation Network you can still communicate with friends, however, you can play with up to 40 people in one game. This will allow for more realistic and more chaotic games.
In the new Playstation Network you are able to surf the web. This feature turns the Sony Playstation 3 into a computer. You can surf with up to six Internet tabs open at once. This is a feature that is not available on Microsoft’s Xbox Live, and Microsoft has shown no interest in adding it.
Some may find the fact that Microsoft is charging you $50 a year to use their Xbox Live is outrageous. This has been solved by Sony. The Playstation Network is free to whoever owns a PS3. All you have to do is connect to the Internet and you are playing live against people from around the world. The only cost is you have to pay for the Internet bill, which you are already doing.
Sony is trying to get it’s Internet to a level where it can finally compete with Microsoft’s Xbox Live. This is a hard level to reach since Xbox has dominated the live gaming level for years. Sony is starting to become up to the level and in the next couple of years we could see both systems tied at the same level.
I have ps3 but ive also played xbox live a lot, so trust me.
They are almost exactly the same. xbl is has some more people, but that is the only difference when you are playing games.
PS Network has Home though which is cool, if you havent seen it ,google it.
