As is a silver account on Xbox, go try to play a game online with that "free" account

At the end of the day theres hardly a difference between the two, just pick the one your friends have or the one with exclusives you like and be done with it!

 

I just finished playing online for free.

 

So what does the paid subscription get you?

 

^^^^

 

I don't like either of them. They're putting so much into these systems but also taking away simple pleasures like being able to play CDs. I'll keep my PS3 until Sony fries the hard drive again with another system update.

 

Yeah I'm holding out for one that will play my 8 tracks and vinyl records.

 

Lmao^ I'm just hoping to hook my walkman up to them. Lol

 

Both the Xbox 360 and PS3 had the ability to rip CDs and use the music for custom soundtracks in the games.

Personally, I consider the fact that this ability has been removed is a step backwards in technology. The new generation of console actually does LESS than the last one.

 

The fact is CD's are just outdated, and that feature was half-assed anyway. I'm sure a lot more people stream music to their consoles. Now that the One can multitask, I'm sure even more people will be streaming internet radio while they play.

Just because it doesn't play CD's, doesn't mean it does less. I'm excited to see what improvements have been made ASIDE from the gaming console aspect of it, and it looks to be greatly improved. Even with the 360, I use it more for tv (and other media) than I do for gaming...

 

Their just making room for more important things. Hardly anyone buys a physical cd anymore and if it's that important to you , you can rip them to a flash drive then transfer them over. Problem solved

 

the stupid **** people cry about....

cd's.. really... come on... 8 track.. hehe

free monthly.. really.... you will pay $399-700 for the system and games and yet find issue with 8 bucks a month? The one pack of cig's or a trip to star bucks or a jar of peanut butter.

The ps3 60 gig units played the old games. If you have the games one would think in most cases you had the system. New gens are about graphics and ability. People now days think 3-6 months old games are out dated. The low resale and crazy low trade in value is proof of that.

if you want cheap games and a system that plays old games just mod they system and enjoy.

 

Xbox...because Forza:

 

More important things, such as removing the BluRay 3D playback that the PS3 had?

Oh wait, don't tell me. BluRay is outdated, right? Or is it 3D that is outdated? I'm so confused.

 

Mostly because 3d is a dying medium.

 

3D never got out of the gate.

 

Exactly, thank you. I'll be getting an Xbox if I buy either because that's what my friends will have.

 

That and forza!! She's waiting on the front porch for me right now! I can finally buy that 13' Shelby I've always wanted.....

 

same. I bought a 360 and a ps3 and a wii when they first came out. The ps3 never got played because everyone I know for the most part had a xbox. The wii was fun for the first month or two then was never used after. The xbox died after 3 years. I sold the wii and ps3. I bought another xbox.

 

The Xbox one may not come with a lot of things you guys want but it does however come with a day one update :/

 

Hahahaha Yes. I do plan on getting the new forza. I'm currently sitting here playing F4
