My friend (a PS2 fanboy) recieved the NA today and called me to brag about it and he invited me over to play SOCOM. When I came over he barely finish setting it up. It took about 14 tries to get connected to the network (chuckle) and he has a cable (BB). I can\'t believe the LAG the network has (chuckle) and I know he is not the only one because after reading alot forums about the NA most of the people are having the same problem (chuckle).
Thats why NA will fail. Think about it if only a few people have the NA and it is having this problem imagine when more people get it!!!! If they beta tested for NA, why are they having this problem, shouldn\'t these problems have been fixed.
All you PS2 fanboys always talked about little of no lag!!!! hahahhahahhahh... Here are few examples why XBOX live will dominate the online gaming console.
(by the way I forgot to mention I am a beta tester for Xbox LiVe)
1. Only 16 companies are confirmed to make games for PS2, while 60 companies are for the XBOX. That means alot of publishers are not going to make PS2 games have online capabilites because they have to RUN and MAINTAIN the servers (that cost money you know). Unless they want to charge meaning more money out of your pocket. hahahah!!!!. .. Believe me when I say after all the complaints the NA will have, either Sony or the Publishers will have to upgrade the servers.... hmmm doesn\'t that cost money and who do you think is going to pay for it.
2. NO PUBLISHER for the PS2 has announced if they are going to charge for their server or it will be completly free!!! WHY? Are they trying to hide something? All we know is that Sony will not charge for online gaming, that\'s a funny statement knowing that they are not even running the servers.
3. I would rather pay $50.00 for a full year subscription to XBOX live and know what Im getting and feel secure that there are going to be more online games than the PS2!!!
4. There are more features available for Xbox live!!! I will agree with some statements you PS2 fanboys say that your not going to use all the features, but guess what you dont need radio, air conditioner, power windows, power sterring, etc... to run a car but it\'s nice to have!!!!!
5. Who ever said tha Microsoft is going to charge $10.00 a month for XBOX when the subscription runs out? That\'s just speculation. Even people at MS dont know. And if you say it is true .. where is your PROOF????..
Provide a link!!!
6. You peeps are saying that PSO will charge a monthly fee!!! Where is your proof? Provide a link!!!!
7. All you 56ker\'s out there.. remember one thing your not always running at 56K you can drop as low as 28.8K, so i would be bragging about online play because us BB people hate playing with you LAGGERS!!!
8. If Sony wanted to please everyone by having 56K and Broadband then why are some of the games BB only!!! How does that make sense.
By the way: I\'v probably played about 10-13 games on XBOX live and have not EXPERIENCED any lag!!!
Conclusion: I guess everybody seem to forget the ol cliche\'s.
1 " Nothing in this world is Free"
2 " You get what you pay for" meaning if your paying nothing to play online then you get NOTHING.
