(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); So Xbox 720 seems to be coming next year. I have a PS3 now, but I might buy 720 if it fills some requirements I have for a console. What I am wondering now however do you on Xbox get free games like we do on PS3? We get games like Crysis 2, Bulletstorm, Motorstorm, LBP 2, Resident Evil, Batman etc etc for free if we have PSN+.

I've been intrested in Xbox since it seem to be faster than PS3. PS3 lags so fking much in menues at times. If you are running a game and go to chat its so fking slow. The reason I went with PS3 though was because of bluray mainly + you can change the harddrive to a bigger one. I have a 2tb HDD atm in my ps3. Can you do that on Xbox? I'm also wondering if you can have files bigger than 4gb on it. I know Microsoft came up with NTFS so it should work yeah?

And another thing I hate about the PS3 is that it won't use my full internet speed. I have atm 100/10mbps internet. I'm lucky if my PS3 downloads at 1-2mbps but on my computer my download speeds are around 10mbps.

Thanks.

Edit: Seems like XBOX doesn't support NTFS either... Hopefully the next PS3 and Xbox will.

No service like PS+ on xbox.
As for net speed xbox live for some people downloads faster compared to PSN. You may never get to use all of your 100Mb due to how the net works. You can't use a custom HDD in a xbox.
Also that date is a rumour we don't know for sure. Given how bad the economy is I guess 2015 or 14.

Ah I see, so there is no free games for people with xbox live or anything? Hopefully you will be able to upgrade your HDD on 720. I recently got a Lumia 920 (windows phone) and there is features etc that would come in handy if you had an Xbox. For e.g smartglass.

You can buy games on demand but no service like PSN pay £10 a month for 4 games. Pretty sure you get better slice of games to buy compared to PSN.
It worth noting that XBL has alot of good cheap games.
