So you can see what everyone is playing just like on the 360? Hmmm if it is very similar to Live this is good...I hope Microsoft takes note and makes live cheaper/free

As much as I love my PS3, I have to say Live is definitely more robust than the PSN overall. However the PSN does provide the basic services that Live has as well. Let's just put it this way... The PS Network is sufficient as a free online service for the time being. I for one hope they further enhance it via firmware updates.

To the top.

Mods "could" sticky this and make this much easier

I added everyone in the thread to my list (I hope.)

As far as why I kept mine....that's easy. I didn't want to deal with Ebay, plain and simple. It isn't worth my time, or future frustration to risk the hassle (and possible scam) of losing my money to that site.

I haven't played online but it seems to have all the essentials of Xbox live just minus the messaging during gaming, universal achivements, and gamerscore.
And honestly I don't really care about the achievements or gamerscores or anyone else's.

All you really need from a service is good matchmaking in the game and a way to contact people across games. It's pretty good for free.

What I really wish was the case is if people took a sweeter approach like Blizzard did with Battle.net and diablo II.

They hosted the games as well as the matchmaking. Having a mutual gaming host made playing a whole lot better. I mean if diablo II could do it for free, why not Sony or MS?

I have Marvel Ultimate Alliance, Tiger Woods '07, and Madden '07.

I'll be getting Resistance soon. I'm kind of kicking myself that I got Madden instead of it. Madden '07 is just not very good on either platform. :(

Because my thread was closed....



Question on PS3 Online ID, Personalization, etc
So I've decided to open and play one of my 20GB PS3s....

Now, if I start customizing it, and make an online ID, is the profile stuck to the system, or will I able to get a new 60GB (because I want the built in wireless and chrome) and transfer my setting etc?

As of right now? I don't think so....I did a thorough buzz-through of the ps3 dashboard, and I can't find anywhere to transfer a user ID, bookmarks, etc to a memory card of some nature.

You can delete users, but you lose everything related to that...so it's ALL stored on the machine. Until they (or if they) release a firmware that'll let you move profiles with machines....I think you're SOL.

Is it stored on the HDD?
If so, would the solution simpy be exchanging the HDD?

I guess we'll find out all the details with a little time.
