lol, PSN doesn't blow. Don't let your bias for one system make you say dumbass things about the other.

Live is better than PSN overall. Everyone knows this. Sexbawx Live has better support and service, but in my opinion, that's it. PSN is much simpler to use, and, for me at least, that more than makes up for their "lack of service". I've never, ever, had trouble finding a game or anything like that on multiplayer on ANY game, much less Call of Duty. Some people prefer Live over PSN...in 2007, I had both Xbox and PS3 and played online alot, and I decided to stick with my PS3 and sell my Xbox based on that and the graphics. PSN is 100% free, by the way.

The graphics on PS3 are much, much better. I've seen some Xbox fans try to negate that point with some retarded, other point like "you can't even tell the difference man!". Well, if your TV isn't a piece of shit, yes, you can tell a difference, especially when it comes to war and sports games, and movies. PS3 has a Blu-Ray player, of course, and all the games come are Blu-Ray, and actually pretty damn tough when it comes to scratches and all that from what I can tell. An example of this would be the new Ace Combat game. I started playing it, and I thought God had come down and touched my PS3 and TV. It looked so damn real. Everything from color to sound was top of the line, it gets no better than that. I don't even have to mention the difference in Ble-Ray movies from regular DVD's...If/when I buy movies that come out on DVD, I now buy them on Blu-Ray for the extra $5, unless it's a dumb chick movie that my girl picks out. It's worth it.

Also, I bought my PS3 in spring 2007. The disc reader or whatever stopped working for me recently. For what I put that PS3 through, that was GREAT. I moved it all over the country. It went through probably 8 flights, 2 changes of duty-station, 2 very, very violent ex's, and kids. One of my ex's even kicked it and tried to throw it at me..my damn PS3 hit the ground from about 4 feet, and it only got scratched, I couldn't believe it. Definitely the closest I've ever came to pimp slapping the shit out of a female, though. But anyway, the thing was tougher than Rihanna's face. ucwutididthur?

I bought one of the new PS3's about two months ago, and it has been absolutely great for me. In my experience, the risk/reward has been much, much better with the PS3. I don't have any kind of subscription I have to waste money on (because I go out of town alot), don't have to worry about the Ring of Death or any other problem that will make my PS3 just stop working, or anything else really. If I felt the SexBawks was better for you as a COD lover, I'd tell ya bro, but I really don't. I've played every COD with a passion, online and campaign, on my PS3, and it has always been great for me.

You can probably find an un-biased website that will list the pro's and con's of each system and each system's specs...I don't know the exact graphics specs, but the PS3's are much better, that is one thing that can't be argued. Everything else I've said can. Some people have had Xbox for years and have not had a problem with it, others have had a PS3 die on them after 2 days. Ya just never know. But, for the most part, I'd say PS3 is tougher, much more of a beast, and is just much simpler to use. Xbox has better online gaming (though like I've said before on here, I wouldn't use Live if someone was trying to give me a life-time subscription. To me, it just looks to damn stupid, and I don't like how you move around the store and all that. It looks like a kid's game to me, I don't like that shit), better system-specific games (overall). I've also found that the 360 has MANY, MANY more dumbass 12 yr olds cussing like crazy in their little girly voices than PSN has.

Also, your friend is wrong about PSN going down "ALOT". Back in the Summer, Sony got hacked and was down for quite a while, but I don't see that happening ever again, at least not on that scale, and pretty soon after the actual hacking, we could already play online again, just not use the Playstation Store. That incident caused Sony to square away ALOT of things, and now, I'm kind of glad it happened. Don't even consider the hacking thing or any of that when you're trying to figure out which system you want though..it's just not going to happen on that scale again.

Overall bro, I'd say go with the PS3. It's just so simple and so damn reliable, and that's everything to me, especially since I travel alot and I'm so damn busy. Do some Google-ing and hit us back up with what you're thinking.
