No, you're missing the point. You're a PS3 fanboy, go back to the PS3 section. no one cares about your opinions here, and all you're doing is making yourself look like a troll with no life.

dur, kid. read my earlier posts. with the PS3 i can download x264 HD bluray rips and put them on my PS3 over my local network and save them for later, can't do that with the 360. can't store videos on the 360s overpriced HDD (you can install any SATA 2.5" HD into a PS3... 360 you have to buy a specialty overpriced HDD, only a 15 year old would think this is ok)
I can also just plain stream the videos without putting them on the HDD which you can do with the 360 also IF you buy a wireless adapter seperately ,I don't have to burn them.
But on top of that they don't have to have AAC2 audio if they are AVCHD mpeg4 format to play them like you do if you use a 360.
Also, PSN, offers everything xbox 360 does now. you can do everything you said. even has the nerdy gamerscore now with nerdy trophies. which, face it, are nothing more than nerd cred.
Also, you failed to mentioned a GOOD 360 exclusive that hasn't been ported to PC. (which by no means makes it a bad game, being ported. just makes it not exclusive.)
This post
proves you don't have a 360. Or, you weren't smart enough to figure out how to use it.
True, you can only store videos you buy from the video store. So? You don't need a wireless adapter to stream to the 360. You only need to have to have Windows Media Center, either the copy that came with your PC or downloaded. Macs can use the other alternative that was listed here a while ago. All you have to do is pair up your 360 with your PC(s) and you can
browse their hard drives, no need to mess with slow 2.5" laptop drives.
As for the hard drive issue... well... we don't have to install our games to the hard drive now do we?
Does PSN have video rentals/downloads? A large arcade section? Private in game chat? Can you even invite friends to join your game? Can you play music to replace ingame music in
any game, or even while you're doing something else(custom soundtracks)? Private video chat? Achievements for every game? Can you submit feedback to the people you just played with (what if they were cheaters? Or they were so awesome you want to add them as a friend?)
And how long did it take you to get these features, which we were enjoying since launch?
Yes, Microsoft does port a lot of games to PC, but these ports often take over a year (over several years... just look at halo 2...) and you need a really good computer to even consider running them.
Forza Motorsport 2 is one example (that I have, which is why I just thought of it). Blue Dragon and Lost Odyssey(RPGs which the PS3 seems to lack)... And there are other titles that are not on PS3, such as Gears 1, Bioshock (while Bioshock 2 is on its way already, still hasn't been released), Mass Effect...
And upcoming exclusives... Gears 2, Halo Wars, and Tales of Vesperia (yes, now a 360 exclusive). Note I'm only listing games that I care about, there are other exclusives...
Whatever I spent too much time on this post. You can reply but I'll probably just laugh at it.
