In a way it's true, the gamertag is there, but their trophies is based upon awards and ranking system of each game while 360 games is based upon gamerscore achieved in challenges they take up... but Microsoft copy not just one but two? And they even take Nintendo Wii's avatar (surprisingly from Rare, creators of Viva Pinata)... so what does that make Microsoft as? I mean, Xbox 360 got Fables 2 (great for them) and Gears of War 2 (going to miss the sequel)... both great games and exclusive... but why do the avatar thing that is similar to Nintendo Wii and called it Mii and implement a copy version of Sony's Home in it?

They can stand up for themselves since they manage to stand on their own.

I vouch for both systems... it's just ripping off in so many other platform games as their own isn't looking too good on their part...

Not exactly a copy of Mii...WeeWorld since 2006. laugh.gif

Still there is no denial both the "inspiration" & pressure come from Mii, but i see nothing of Sony Home resemblance (appearance customization is Home...wut?) and Home is "inspired" by Second Life, no? The Live party system feels more like the Halo party system (since Halo 2) and now a standard of the overall Live experience.

The thing about this generation of console wars is it's full of irony. Just when you thought they are repeating the mistake of the past, it turn out to be a success instead.
-motion control...
-Soooo many different SKU~
-awesome hardware failure rate!
-PC console game installation, lol?
-whoever launch the console first will be "dreamcasted"

If any of the scenario above is in the last generation console, it would have been an epic fail. The current console war is far from over & it's an interesting one.

If you ask me... their Party Room is like Home... another ripoff too... I mean, PS3 Home is yes... still not available yet... but doing this ripoff thing is a bit too much... their new game Lips is a real ripoff of Singstar (exclusive to PS3)... the difference is that you can put your Ipod songs and sing your favorite songs there... wow... but then... it's still a ripoff...
