Even though I picked up a 360 this gen I'm thinking PS4 next gen because stupid fucking xbox live costs $60 with ads when on PS it's free. Is the online service for PS comparable in terms of quality?
What are your main things you're looking for?
PSN isn't that bad. It gets the job done. Problem is it feels like half the games don't implement a quick invite feature. Feels like you always have to use the in-game invite system which sucks balls.
Is it as smooth as xbl? not at all. in terms of gameplay it feels the same, if anything ps lags less since you don't have taco bell hosts plaguing psn.
xbl isn't worth $60, it's not worth $40. It's not even worth it at all compared to PS+. I'm sure PS4 will have party chat and have a better and smoother UI next gen. Sony clearly underestimated it's importance this gen.
blows my mind how people support paying $60/yr to unlock half their game.
You can't play those free games once the PSN+ subscription runs out.
wasn't aware you kept all the perks to xbl gold when your subscription expired
