Snoop Dogg's message to Xbox One

Snoop going Playstation could only mean one thing.

That's gold.

Xbox Live's online being so great is a fabrication. I've had numerous connection problem issues with both Blops 3 and Battlefront.

Not that Sony is amazing, but Xbox is nothing to boast about that's for damn sure.

How is it Nintendo's service is free and has by far the least problems?

(Yes, this may be a leading question)

But there's like 60 bajillion 3DS owners and look stupid still using their DS and Wii online.

The online features on Nintendo hardware are few and far between. Standardized voice chat, parties, trophies, etc.

I mean, look at Share Play alone on PS4. Seriously.

There's just less going on.

If he gets that upset over downtime, switching to PlayStation probably isn't a wise move.

Didn't you hear? Bill has the switch to the internet at his house! His house man!

He probably just turns the PSN switch off every now and then to make Xbox look better.

When I had a Ps4 it would go down weekly for 1-2 days for the store update. I don't know how it is now. With that said, Xb1 has had way too many problems compared to the 360.
 
Psst. Nobody tell those guys that PSN (aside from a 6h emergency maintenance last week I guess) has been even more stable than Live for a while now, it might cause unwanted distress.
Also getting great download speed since a fix a few months back.

Funny, that emergency maintenance tanked PSN for almost 12 hours. But I guess 6 hours sounds better. ;)

Speak for yourself my downloads are actually really fast.

I speak for myself and the tons of other people constantly posting about shitty speeds here, at reddit, at IGN etc etc. We post those things not to get a rise out of the super fans, but because it's actually happening.

Is it still down? I've seen the message on the Deatiny subreddit but don't know the current status of it.

Says "Social and Gaming" are both down. So I'd assume yep.

I've actually started using my PS4 since Thanksgiving a lot because of holidays and because I decided to purchase all the games I've wanted for cheap. In that time I've played a lot of Destiny. Not once did I have issues with not being able to access stuff on PSN or issues playing Destiny. You would think PSN has issues every single month from the posts I've read here generally.

I wonder how he would react with the weekly maintenances of the PSN.

(not on a weekly basis per se but more frequently than on XBL)
 
Both Sony and Microsoft should be embarrassed with their networks.

eh, keeping an entire network up as complex as PSN and XBL takes an enormous amount of effort and resources. I don't think the engineers at MS or Sony get enough credit. If one hiccup occurs not matter what the length there are masses of people freaking out. Shit happens guys, lots of of shit, calm down and stop freaking out if you can't get online for a few hours. These networks are up 99.9% of the time. The fact that you think its embarrassing that the networks aren't up the 0.01% is embarrassing.

Don't you mean every single week? I've yet to see a claim of daily issues. Anyone wanna take it up a notch?

If it's not part of some scheduled maintenance, then Xbox should be taken to task. (And Sony whenever they go down)

People are paying money for the subscription... where the hell is the money going to? Fix it.

Ironically enough PSN has had an issue in every single month you've owned it so far. Prior to these past few months though has been very good in regards to it being up. Speeds are a totally other story.

You have no idea how computers work do you?

Sure I do. On computers they don't pay additional fees to play all their online games.

I should search you in PSN down threads, just tell me in advance and save me the trouble .I seriously don't care, you can be anti-MS all you want.
Please, if you'd be so kind. I'm on my tablet computer entertainment system ATM.
 
I'm pretty sure XBL goes down quite often. Ask the people on Xbox reddit. They'll tell you. It seems like once a week, XBL is going down. But not a peep here on Neogaf. I mean, its down right now.

PSN down though? Ohh fuck, you better believe there'll be a thread on here, lol.

Totally agree.

Quick your corporate overlords need you to back them up!

For a network that relies on peer to peer connections for most its multiplayer its still pretty embarrassing
Except you have no empirical data to prove the opposite is true either, just the usual statement "PSN is worse" with zero proof
Can't we look at download speeds for obvious differences..
