Ya, the PS3 has awesome features.

Awesome features :
1) Blu-ray player that's upgradeable
2) Swapping to a larger hard drive

Not so awesome features :
1) Waiting for games to come out 1 month after another system. (i.e. Rock Band 2)
2) Online community sucks


FYI - Fixed your post

Playing games online is terrible compared to XBOX Live.
I'm not just talking trash, I've actually played COD4 on PS3.
It was a joke compared to XBOX.
For the XBOX gamers;
Picture all the little kids that frustrate you online.
Whether they play stupid or just a bunch of kids screwing around.
That's 90% of everyone on PS3.
When you have a free online community, 10-12 year olds that can't pay
for service play on it, because it's free.

Although, in PS3's defense, PS2 online community is actually a lot worse, if that's possible.
I had a PS2 forever. The only time I could play a real game online was with a friend.
We played SOCOM all the time, but it gets old when it's just 2 people on a map.

And I know, some people will say. "I don't really play online so it doesn't bother me."
That's similar to people on dial-up saying "Ya my internet is slow, but I don't really
download stuff or do any media streaming so I don't mind."

If your forced to live w/ it, or you never see a better option, it becomes acceptable.
Like all of us are happy now that gas is under $4. But not too long ago it was $2.50.
We've been conditioned to accept higher gas prices because we don't have a choice.
PS3 players have been conditioned to accept a lousy online community because they don't have a choice.



Nice post!

I highlighted some key words in your post.
I know I've been hanging out w/ Jedi too long.
I read that, and all I could think is, "He takes it to a car wash?!?!"

Hopefully he goes to SS, but I feel bad for that car.

So I got the tire taken care of, so now the WORk wheels are ready to go on the car. But wait . . .. . the lug nuts do not fit, and I threw out the old ones.

Considering I am gonna sell these wheels, is it worth it to go get a new set of lugs JUST for SSXI???
