Although it may be true that they are making a big leap forward for their console, this is how I would have worded it.

The Playstation 3 is making a big leap forward....and has caught-up with the 360.

To see what I'm talking about, click here. What I'm saying is that this "big leap" they are making with Firmware 2.40 is not a very big leap compared to other consoles. Let's compare the new features to the Xbox 360.

Trophies-The Xbox 360 already has achievements.
In-Game XMB-Already has the Xbox Guide.
Text chat in the in-game XMB-The Xbox 360 has VOICE chat, and they don't even have to be in the same game either.
In-Game XMB can be accessed from the PS3 titles but NOT while watching movies and playing PS2 games-You can access the guide from both games and movies, but NOT while playing original Xbox games.
You can view downloads and see how close it is to completetion-Already have active downloads.

Yes, they have made a big leap, but have they really gotten ahead of the competition?

I didn't say this, but my last three posts including this has been part of my new Gloqwi's Soapbox, my point of view on news. If you ARE reading these, please comment or respond to these posts and share your ideas with me. I would LOVE to hear some constructive conversations.

I am also planning to remove my blog was seeing some sort of depression, where either nobody posted, or we posted crap.
