    I assume so, I mean, you're account info was stolen if you have an account since it was every single PSN account.

    Gotcha. I don't have a CC on file since I've never bought anything from PSN.

    I don't really care about the PSN+. It never really caught my interest. Discounted games I have no interest in playing....no thanks.

    I just want PSN back...asap.

    I haven't used PSN+, if that's what you are asking. Honestly I don't even know the benefits of it and likely wouldn't use it if they offer it once PSN gets back up and running.

    Well yeah, I meant mostly the email and stuff.

    The allegation comes from an observer in a chat channel used by hackers, who saw discussion of a plan to launch an attack this weekend.
    I call shenanigans! Really, an "observer in a chat channel"? How much creditability would I have if I stated I read here on a "Sports Forum" that someone posted that the Browns will start practice regardless of the lockout?

    Tis true, but there are rumblings.

    I own both, but this outage has shifted my play back to the 360 a bit.

    PSN is good for what it is, and I liked the fact that it was free and I have a baby now and don't have a lot of time to play, but I just reloaded my Xbox live with a subscription for 12 months, and changed my "Brink" preorder from PS3 to Xbox 360.

    Xbox 360 has slightly better servers in general, in my opinion, but I just like online gaming better on the 360.

    I know I am going to sound like an idiot...but are the graphics as good on the 360?

    I can never tell the difference but I am just a casual gamer.

    Yeah, a major downfall of the 360, in my opinion, for someone looking to purchase 1 system.

    I had the 360 first, then was kind of interested in some PS3 exclusives, and wanted a Blu Ray Player (back when Blu Ray Players weer all around $200+, so a PS3 was a no brainer).

    The games are so close in regards to performance, most major reviews give an edge to the 360 in terms of graphics/technical aspects that I lot of people don't care too much about, but I've played extensively on both and the differences are so miniscule it's not worth mentioning.

    Xbox Live > PSN without a doubt, but is it worth the premium? In my opinion, yes, if you play a lot of games online.

    If you want an overall home media system, the PS3 is where it's at. If you are really interested in online gaming, I say go with the 360....$2.91 per month for Xbox Live isn't gonna make you go broke...

    That's what we use it as and play very very little online. I don't think I have played anything online in over a year.
  • Tiger2003
    Yah I don't even use the PS3 as a Blu Ray player so it won't be any difference there.
