As a PS3 gamer I can honestly say that they have managed to make me look at Xbox Live for my online gaming needs, which if you consider how much I hate Microsoft&#8217;s nickel and dimming Gold schemes should indicate how bad the situation has gotten.  Basically I have come to the conclusion that no console has a perfect or even adequate service for Internet gaming, they all are a sucky mess of crap that makes me actually miss the days of Dreamcast Online Gaming.  I&#8217;d write more, but I&#8217;ve got to go change my Credit Card info in between Xbox Live&#8217;s Call of Duty crashes.<\/p>\n<p>Zero-lives is a weekly comic strip lampooning the world of video games from the 8bit predecessors to the current systems. If it&#8217;s video game related it&#8217;s fair game.
