Scott Pilgrim and PS3 vs. The Xbox 360 Community
It is with a heavy heart that I must tell you that the incredible looking XBLA/PSN game Scott Pilgrim vs. The World will be a PSN exclusive.. For two weeks. That's right, Sony has landed the exclusive rights to 4-player online coop beat 'em up for a full two weeks before Microsoft can get it's filthy rich hands on it. This annoys me, because I wanted to be able to play the game on day one, and I'm sure as hell not going to buy it for PSN, because it's still not impressive enough for my cooperative cohorts to move away from what I think is the superior service, Xbox Live.

Well, apparently this article is moot. I finally got the memo that Scott Pilgrim vs. The World will not have online cooperative multiplayer on either XBL or PSN. Bummer!

Looking forward to this and Shank. PSN for me. Not into Xbox Live. Xbox dash board annoys me, and my microsoft jock riding friend makes me dislike Xbox Live even more. I might make an exception for GOW3 though.
@Dre: Agreed, Shank looks good too.
If the Xbox dashboard bothers you, you'll be glad to know they're redesigning it, to be released in the next few months. It's still probably going to cram useless information down your throat (one of the reasons I like PSN better,) but all in all I think Xbox's social system is so much easier. If I just sign on and my boys are all playing different games, I can get them into chat party, invite them to the game I want to play, and be playing in under 3 minutes. I don't even know if that's possible with PSN..
