It has been clamed by Robbie Bach who is the Xbox 360 Microsoft Entertainment and Devices division president that the Xbox 360 still has the edge on PS3 and Wii, and this is said to be thanks to Xbox Live but what do you think?
Robbie has said that they have more than ten million subscribers at the moment and offer an unparalleled online experience.
At the moment there are rumours circulating around the net that suggest the 20GB hard drive for the Xbox 360 will be phased out for a 60GB model now whether this is true or not guess we will have to wait and see.
So, has a paid online service (Xbox Live) gave the Xbox 360 the edge in your view?

Definitely has the edge in the worst reliability rate of all time..in anything. wtg Microsoft, really did a good job there.
Hmmm…lets see
Flow…and a bunch of stupid Playstation Eye “games” or games like Puzzle Quest, Exit, Carcassonne, Lumines, Poker Smash, Small Arms, Bomberman, Worms, Extend Every Extra or Commanders.
A service where you get at least one new game every week, or a service that basically gives you demos and trailers most of the time?
Besides a couple of the PSONE classics, The only games worth playing on the PS store right now are Flow, Pain and Super Stardust HD. Loco Roco was okay…
what edge
ps3 blu ray + home
wii cheap + fun and verity
xbox ……………fps’s,
Xbox 360 blows is has nothing failure this article is so biased full of crap lies. PS3 is the only real next gen gaming system.
LOL at the FPS comment..
Unreal Tournament
Resistance Fall of Man
Ratchet and Clank
Uncharted…
The games you guys all brag so much about are shooters.
It has the edge, really? LOL
Does it have MGS4, GT5, FF13, Killzone 2, Haze, littleBigPlanet, The Agency, God Of War 3, The Getaway 3, Resistance 2, Motorstorm 2 and Tekken 6 all coming exclsuively over the next 12 months or so like the PS3 does?
If you look at the last 2 major online multi platform games (Burnout Paradise & COD4) the PS3 online gameplay is better.
The 360 certainly used to have the edge but that was because PSN has only just been launched. When the in game XMB and Home come along the PS3 will be vastly supiriour and still free.
DJB, Ratchet and Clank and Uncharted aren’t FPS, flippin tool.
@shelt
Milk comes from cows, the sky is blue and tires are made of rubber.
What was the point of your comment, it’s not like anyone said those games were FPS?
common man get with it.
Dude…they’re 3-D and you shoot things…whats the effing difference? You flippin puppet.
The fact is, you sony fan boys have this fantasy that the XBOX 360 is somehow going to go away
YOU arent TRUE GAMERS. You are just a bunch of puppets who worship a corporation. A Gamer is someone who wants to play great games no matter which platform they are on.
If you want to deny that Mass Effect, Bioshock, Gears of War, etc are crap based on this blind faith, then go for it. The rest of us will own as many consoles as we can get our hands on so we are never limited.
The PS3 will never catch up to XBOX Live…sorry, every week we get up to three new games…what has PSN offered? Every weekend I log on and go…oh, yay..more demos and Rock Band music for a system that doesnt even have voice chat for Rock Band and comes out two days later. Now Les Paul support either because Sony doesnt have the balls to stand up to Activision.
I’m excited about PS3’s potential…but so far, not much has been delievered outside of Warhawk and Ratchet and Clank. Uncharted was just Gears of War in a Tomb Raider dressing with better acting…I didnt even bother finishing it as I didnt really want 20 minute firefights in what I thought was an action adventure game.
I’ll hold judgement about these “Great Exclusives” until I actually see them. Remember the hype that Lair received? What a turd that turned out to be.
Resistance was just another 3-D shooter. Fun, but really didnt bring much new to the table.
Oh, and if you want to talk about Burnout…how about the fact you cant listen to your own music on the PS3? How annoying. Sony should have had an XMB at LAUNCH.
