I personally don't like X BOX Live because it seema so unorganized. Playstation has everything lined up and makes it easy. Where as Xbox kinda just throws you in a game. Tell me what you think.

Xbox live:

You have to pay, wtf?
You get 1 account, ghey.
You can't even choose what rooms you want to join! It's like socom online, but forget EVERYTHING and just have Autoplay.

Sure it has some nifty things like voice messages, but those aren't necessary, I'd rather be able to join my own room with me choosing.

There is lag, no denying it.
There are glitchers, no denying it.





So, why PAY for a POS online system like that when PS2 online has GREAT organization, choose which rooms, with a great filtering system too, nice clan systems usually and friend lists. You get however many accounts you feel like. There is lag, but not always. There are glitchers, but not always.


So, for basically the same thing, except far better organization and accounts and PRICE (free), I'd choose PS2 online.

the only real plus that x box live has is the voice messages. or you can just get a keyboard for like 10$ and learn to type

Playstation 2 has socom. The servers are quite shoddy alot of lag. Though a great game.

Xbox has many games, alot better communications, less lag havent seena cheat at all. You pay £40 a year. Thats the equivalent to one game a year.

If I were asked to compare Socom II to Xbox Live I would pick Socom II, though overall i think Xbox Live is the better between ps2 and xbl. The amount of games on xbl gives it that step up.

Cheap as5.

Paying isn't that big of a deal but I choose PS2 online just because I don't have X-box online.

Sorry was a bit tired when i wrote that. I meant that like all games are connected in one big server..so you can find players on different games. Also that its international :)

I'd have to say PS2 Online is better because the most important factor to me is the money, I don't feel like paying money to go online thats why I got PS2, and also I have never played Xbox Online.

My parents are fun-nazis (not as in nazis that are fun, as in soup-nazi) so asking them to pay for xbox live would be like asking....um.....i have no analogy at the moment.
