This is quite a serious Extra Gameaday Competition

The challenge is to write an interesting piece about online gaming as:
XBOX Live Experience - Pro's and Cons
or
PS2 Networking Experience - Pro's and Cons
or
PS2 Networking vs XBOX Live - Comparison

The winner will be the best entry (in the opinion of the judges) submitted before midnight on Sunday November 14th.

Your entry will be judged on the basis of concise, readable, well written information. i.e. it must be written like a review. Try to include your experiences from initial interest and sign up through to full use.

All entries, whether they are the winner or not, may be used elsewhere on our site. The best entries will probably appear on a subsection of the UKconsoles site.

DO NOT COPY ANY WORK. These must be original.

I recommend that you save your work into a word processing document before entering it in case you want to work on it later.

Good Luck Chaps and Chapesses

Oh and Tony, ask your staff about these new-fangled 'sticky topics'

You can't go into an arcade naked and reeking of stale lager.

My Entry

PS2 Online

The good things about having your playstation two online are:

i) You can play people from all over the world and even talk to them with that headset thing you get free with Socom - wicked!

ii) You can shoot people of all different colours and greeds, even those crazy Japs. You never know what they're planning! :-O

iii) You can use the chatrooms to meet people called sally_123. We're getting married online next month. Teehee.

iv) My rich ass parents bought it for me so they can continue laundering money in the spare room without me distracting them

v) It r0x0rs


The bad things about having your playstation two online are:

i) You can't look at pr0n with it :-( :-(

ii) Hax0rs

iii) The Japs always beat me. Suxors :-(

iv) I'm not l33t

v) Sally_123 was a guy :-( :-(

This is unfair on those without such consoles.

Expect to hear from my lawyer over the discrimination lawsuit by the morning.

I'll probably be entering as well, although my experience of online gaming and consoles aren't exactly that great.

Still, it's worth a bash...
