Xbox 360 Experience vs PlayStation 3 Home: virtual worlds collide

Who gives a damn? I buy my consoles to play games, not to play with the avatars, if they each add some features that help you hook up to online games then all well and good but otherwise i couldn’t really care less, but then i’m not a 12 year old girl or a dumb fanboy so maybe i’m not the target audience for this.

Hahahaha! You said it man! ROFL

Sony and its deep virtual world of Sony Home looks to be lame. Correct me if Im wrong but you have to walk around some shopping mall? or walk to your appartment? Maybe the japanese gamers with their love of the RPG will eat this up… But im from North America and want my stuff to be one click away. So If Microsoft keeps it clean and simple with 3D avitars, thats fine. But dont forget that its a OS and not a game. Do not stick me in a game that I cant sell or return.

Haha, I just use my consoles to play games, I can use my PC to do everything else!

Well. In touch with what the article is about. The winner will be relative to each person. Those whole like a TRUE 3D world experience will love PS3 Home. Those who like that a more simple interface they will like the Xbox Experience.

But please remember that HOME is OPTIONAL. You don’t have to use if don’t want to. You can still launch games, download movies and trailers with having to use to HOME. Home is an option for the users.

That is what I like. I like to have OPTIONS.

In Home you don’t have to “walk to your apartment”, you can just click and appear there. Personally, I like the idea of Home better, but I will probably get an xbox 360 later too, not for xbox 360 experience, but because I want to play some games that exclusive to the xbox. Yes people, exclusives do matter.

ps3 is gonna be well kool HOME is gonna be sick you can go in pubs,play arcade machines,play snooker with a mate,play bowling with a mate there may even make home better by adding tennis courts,baseball stadiums,football stadiums and make it easier to play these game with simple controls sometimes u can play with a friend that maybe living in a diffrent country like brazil,japan etc. everywhere it would be better in a virtual world then in a party or something like that so HOME will be availiable everywhere + for adults there will be x-rated places in HOME as well.
+There will be tons of ps3 exclusives out there in the future did u know this is just the beginning of the ps3 console 2 years already passed but x-box 360 been out here for longer around 3 years so dont rely on the 360 you havnt seen the FULL ps3 experence yet!!!!

As usual Sony and Nintendo have good ideas, whereas Microsoft is just a parasitic copycat.

Meh, i guess its a bonus, wouldn’t effect me much i guess..

I agree with Daryl more plagiarism from Microsoft.

I also agree with Daryl, Sony has has great ideas and brought us great technology: Blu ray, Sixaxis, WiFi, Internal powerblock, Bluetooth, (built in CHARGEABLE) wireless light controllers, Home, Motion sensitive eyetoy, other OS, list goes on. Its even funny how they even copied the Playstation controller, moved the joystick, and made it fatter…haha! If they were half as smart as the Japanese Companies, they would hire better engineers and put better hardware in the 360. Now they are trying to get the rights from Sony to use Blu ray on their next generation sh*t console. Years from now !!

how is microsoft copy cat Daryl look at all the same features sony put on the 360. Playstation store. The button in the middle that brings you to the dashboard. and so many more things so dont give that bs.

I honestly might switch over to PS3. Home sounds more interactive and fun. By the sound of xbox’s target audience who seem to be present here, I’d be willing to bet that Xbox doesn’t upgrade Experience (cloths aside), keeping it simple and wanting; like it is now in my opinion.

who the hell would play virtual chess or go to a virtual bowling alley over cod5, gears 2 or gta IV

The systems are so close but one has Blu-Ray its a easy choice from thier

I would Millsy. I have a lot of friends that live over sees in other countries that I love to hang out and talk, play pool, share stuff on the hdd, and even get the clan together to lauch games like Warhawk. Just remember, not everyone plays Gears of War for ten hours a day. I use mine for Blu-ray, internet, socialize with my friends, and even use it for my computer (linux). I belive Home is a great idea from Sony. They just need to hurry and finish it before its too late.

yo haters! I don’t get why you people are raging which console is better. Sony and Microsoft doesn’t know u! they just want your money. so give it a rest. Oh and er, PS HOME is the NEXT GEN experience because PS3 is truly a NEXT GEN console. nuf said! PEACE!

it’s really not important to have home. game consoles are mostly made to play games and sure ya play online(y not) and let me say this who the hell thinks Microsoft is plagiarizing i mean its all the same games games games. and whose who say Microsoft are just copying are retards, because i mean look Xbox has the best selling games and the most on market, isn’t that what game consoles are about????
