I think Sony is doing just fine for there online stuff IMO.You don't have pay to play online(bonus)Most servers are pretty descent.The things that both you guys like the group chat thing or the install are those really that big of a deal?I could see the group chat thing.Would be nice.The install thing just go and do something else while you it installs don't nit pick at stuff like some do. I'm more of a Sony fan then 360.The games are more graphic wise better on ps3 then xbox IMO.
Paying like $3 a month for the features that Live users get is more than worth the value, so it's hardly bogus.

...and yes, those features are a HUGE deal. If I'm logged into Live, 9 times out of 10 I'm in a party of several people. It makes hopping into a single game so much easier and takes the hassle out of having to organize everything. When I get an achievement, it synchronizes itself immediately. When I get a trophy, I have to wait 20 seconds for the thing to synchronize. Game updates are a real disparity. It's never taken me more than 5 seconds to update a game on 360. It's taken me in excess of an hour before to update a PS3 game on the same internet connection.

Graphics, meh, never did care and never will. If Sony were to ever get an exclusive like Gears of War, I would care. Gears of War and Halo are both examples of world class online shooters, something Sony doesn't have. They were damn close with Resistance: Fall of Man, Killzone 2, and Uncharted 2, but all 3 of those had sequels that went majorly in the wrong direction. I have my eye on Starhawk and Dust 514, but that's about it at this point. KZ3 and S4 left a really sour taste in my mouth.
