heh just to homour you I did a gt5 delayed search, one site says gt 5 is delayed Forza motorsports forum. gt5 is a tba title. And why did you get a ps3?
Of course I'm gonna gloat over something as xbl going down, after everyone heralded it as the best thing ever and that the stability is why you pay for live.. and then lights out..
I bought a PS3 because I was hoping that there would be decent games for it, plus, having never owned a PS2, I wanted to be able to play the classics on that system as well.
I've only been disappointed up to this point. Resistance is unplayable to me until Sony (or a third party) releases a controller that doesn't suck. PS2 games look like crap. The few exclusive games that I figure may be worth playing don't come out until March at the earliest, so I'm seriously considering unloading this thing, buying a PStwo, and pocketing the difference. (I justified not buying a PS2 before the PS3 launch by figuring that the PS3's hardware emulation would provide the same experience. Instead, it took already-poor PS2 graphics and made them worse.
)
Oh, and stability is only part of the reason I pay for XBL. I also pay for unified design (stuff works the same no matter what I'm doing), friend functions, Achievements, and more, and at $4.17 a month I figure I'm getting a pretty good deal, even if parts of the system drop for two hours once or twice a year. Hell, one of my client's DSL line drops more often than that.
BTW, since you don't own a PS3 yourself, doesn't that prevent you from taking part in this forum, based on what you've said previously?
