Not gonna lie to you guys, I have been an Xbox faithful since the summer before Halo 2 came out. That is when I first took the plunge, and began changing my gears from being a 60/40 Nintendo/Sony guy, to a majority Microsoft man. Probably about 75% MS, 15% PS, and 10%BigN. And So far I have been extremely happen with that decision. You know, like when you meet that really smoking hot blond chick, and the sex is great, and you like the perfume she uses, and you never have to meet her parents.
But now that I have a PS3, I am discovering more and more that the PSN (or PlayStation Network) is a far better service than Xbox Live. Ok, let me put an asterisk next to that- the downloading of videos and games is much better on the PSN.
Let me paint you the picture, I find that searching for tv, movies, and games is not only easier and cleaner on the PSN, but it is also somehow more satisfying. I don’t have to search through archaic menus to get to the content that’s available, I don’t have to wait years for the shit to load, and I don’t have to do calculus-based conversions in my head to find out how many American Pesos 800 goddamned MS points equal.
I mean fuck, shopping about the PSN makes me giddy, like when you realize that not only does that sweet brunette chick in your DifiQ class have a spectacular rack, but that her nips are pierced too. And not creepy like big rings, like petite ones. Because I mean sometimes she wears sheer tops, and we’re all ok with that.
The PSN just seems to be more of an intelligent design, and although it burns my PC-loving mouth to say it, it reminds me a lot of itunes with its maximum accessibility. Xbox Live’s handling of shopping for shit is like clicking through the hierarchy of folders you have to look through to get to a 13 year old’s porn stash (hint, its def not in the folders marked data because NOBODY ever hides porn in there winkwink).
But don’t take this as an insult microsoft, take it as a firm hug and suggestion from an old friend. You had just better straighten out your shit in the fall update is all I’ms sayings, because not only is your competitor smoking you in this department, but its doing it for free…while you charge me $50 a year.
