Just a little rant about PS3

Sirius Satellite radio stations as custom playlists

All good and well, but the radio is laughable. American users who have Sirius account have been streaming Sirius via PS3 browser just nothing in-game though. The radio aint really a "great" selling point. Netflix yes but Sirius :sick: I think users are more than happy with sticking in a flash disk with their own music, no need to filter out crap.

I guess we'll agree to disagree. South Africa is a bad place to compare because, let's be honest, all our radio stations suck badly.

Me, I like to hear new music so I like radio. The thought of Driving around in GTA 4 listening to a real DJ on a Real station is a lot more appealing than listening to the same 12 tunes over and over again.

EDIT: but anyway that doesn't effect the point: 360 dash, new and forthcoming beat the daylights out of the PS3 ;)

You are not serious now are you. You are saying that the PS3 dashboard is better looking than the 360 blades???

Personally yes, the blades are real ugly to me and thats why the new setup will be MUCH easier on the eye, hey it might even reel in the europeans. It comes down to personal preference I guess but now I'm probably gonna here how much better the dash is and all your fanboy banter.
Oh and the themes look real clunky on the blades IMO! Doesn't give a nice feel cause the text just ge splattered over it. I'm sure it'll look better now though

Can say that again, we must have the crappiest Radio in the world. I can't stand to listen to the radio at all. Netflix will probably only get to us 2010, hahahaha. Knowing our country that undersea cable will only be done right before the world cup starts.

I dont have any banter, I do prefer the blades to the ps3 dash though.
The new fallout 3 theme dash is not clunky at all, nicely done actually, cant say the same for the Fable 2 dash - stay away....:sick:

I can understand why the Xbox updates are so small, i mean what more features/upgrades can it handle.

it means the 360 can be used without a hdd as the system software are stored on the console itself, unlike the ps3 :cool: (if my 360 hdd fails i can still use my console until i get a new one but if ur hdd fails u are (F.U.C.T) :D ! oh and the system rom is secure which means a virus infecting it is highly unlikely unlike the psn software which lie exposed on a hdd and which can be infected easily

The blade system is also faster to navigate than the overblown psp menu and NXE will just blow that sorry excuse for system software away ! ms dont imitate (trophies,ingame dash,custom tracks, wonder who came up with that before sony) they innovate :cool: ! Nuff Said !

This looks like a Vista derivative product, not that impressive but a major step up from that ugly looking blades. XMB is pretty plain but at least it can be customized via themes which it aint all bad.

and the xbox cannot be customised with themes in your opinion http://mybroadband.co.za/photos/data/500/medium/xboxcdrip.jpg (then i wonder how i got that pic there in the background)

The nxe looks far from vista it uses the twist UI(what part resembles vista again ? you're just being biased IMO) that is similiar to the media centre and zune interfaces it's also similiar to the coverflow feature of apple !

As far as bias go you take the cake! I never said that Xbox cant take themes. My word I jsut said the XMB ain't all that bad cause the themes make it look a bit better. As for NXE I said Vista derivative NOT VISTA! GEEZ!!!! I was refering to the twist! oh and note I said my personal choice and my opinion. Go pick a fight somewhere else.

What theme doesnt make something look better ? :confused: (thats the objective of a theme if u didnt know that -> to make something look better)

I never said U said it's vista (Dare to quote wot i'v said) but everything ms makes is according to u either derived from dos, a pc, xp, vista etc. (windows 3.1 can tile windows just like that so maybe it's windows 3.1 derived then :rolleyes:) apple uses the twist, linux also uses the twist interface (but it's vista) i guess the xmb is derived from a nokia 3310 menu then (cause it looks the same IMO (IN MY OPINION) :D

did u ever think that the ps3 is a derivative of a pc ?
