Xbox 360 owners will watch the video attached to this story with varying levels of intrigue, ranging from ho-hum to ‘those bastards are copying Microsoft Achievements!’ All of which are true, and an understandable reaction.
The Microsoft interface from the get-go was superior to any of its peers, and remains so today. The next PS3 upgrade will need to improve background downloads amongst a smattering of other features before it truly challenges the Xbox 360 experience.
