Nope. Correct answer is: Better support. PS3 Malaysia can play online. 360 no online play because Gold account not available in Malaysia.

360 Gold is needed for everything- Facebook, Twitter, Youtube, even just web browser need Gold to be able to use. Even to play multiplayer game need Gold.

PS3: PS Plus is optional. Youtube is accessible for free. Web browser is accessible for free. Twitter and Facebook client not available on PS3, but can use web browser to access. Multiplayer game is free.

What's the point of buying a console that cripples the online experience? Only reason to buy 360 is for Lost Odyssey and Blue Dragon.

But at least PS+ is available in Malaysia, rite?

It'd do Microsoft good to launch XBL Gold in Malaysia if they want the Xbox One to catch up, but then they don't even care about Asia, let alone Malaysia. Singapore will get Xbone one year after US, what about Malaysia? will MS follow the 360 and launch Xbone here 5 years after Singapore?

Stupidest thing, Xbone CPU made in Penang by AMD Penang gomen should threaten AMD to GTFO if they don't force MS to launch Xbone in Malaysia same day as US and launch XBL Gold in Malaysia

That's one of the rumors I've heard (if it's true, it is a stupid reason if you ask me). The other rumor is that Malaysia uptake of HSBB too slow (lame excuse, everyone outside of the city area in the US have no access to HSBB either) and that MS Singapore playing wargames with MS Malaysia because scared that Singaporeans will buy Malaysian XBL Gold instead of Singaporean XBL Gold and blocking MS Malaysia from launching because Malaysian version will be cheaper (again, lame excuse and will not happen if they maintain SG and MY same pricing).

Should note that Live is already launched in Malaysia since January. Just that Malaysian Live account cannot do anything other than buy XBLA games and DLC because XBL Gold still not available in Malaysia. I think they only launch Live because of Lumia phones needing it to use the store!
