Sony > Microsoft.

Shocking.

Basically, the highlights are:


Microsoft reserves the right to deny games a release on Xbox Live Arcade if they launch on PSN first.
Microsoft's third party guidelines are reportedly adamant that all games released on the Xbox 360 must launch "at least simultaneously" with other systems and must have "at least" the same features and content. It reserves the right to veto release if those guidelines are not met.
"I think they want to dumb it down and keep it as pedestrian as possible so that if you want to do anything for Blu-ray, or you have extra content above 9GB, or you want to do anything of that nature, you'd better sure as heck remember that Microsoft can't handle that," said Dyer.
"So from a creativity standpoint and what we are doing to try to make it better for the consumer, our view is Microsoft's doing everything they can to eliminate that because they have an inferior technology."

GG Microsoft.

Yea... PS3's processing power is pretty supreme, tbh. Fuck the 360. Do you even have to pay to play on the PS network? I don't think you do...

No, you don't. Playing a game on the PSN is completely free, along with voice chat and all the bells and whistles.

They do offer a Premium service, but all that does is give you access to betas, and early releases, and stuff among other things like that. Just goodies 'n stuff.

If only consoles hadn't been outdated for the last four years... I might have cared.

Good luck playing some amazing exclusives on your PC, bro.

When you find a (working) PS3, or 360 emulator, get at me.

If it's on those platforms as an exclusive, I'm not really interested anyway.

Actually, it's the loss of the game manufacturer or whoever controls which platforms it's released on (suz).
