action-packedThere sure ain't a bigger critic than a fan. That's why Microsoft is asking you for your suggestions as to the future of the Xbox 360, Xbox.com and Xbox Live. Yep, they want your ideas. And for sure, they are not gonna be ignored.

Ozymandias aka Andre from the XBox team has this to say, "...we're looking at a future where multiple devices will be able to connect into [Live on Windows]. My question to you is what big features would you want to see out of Live in the future?" Apart from that, he's also asking for suggestions on the devices based around the future of Live anywhere.

Major Nelson add, "With your input, you have helped mold what the service is today. You talk, we listen...that's one of the ways we get feedback. I get a couple of hundred emails each week suggesting new Xbox Live features and I pass those onto the developers here in the building...so we are listening."

So there. Feel free to pitch in your ideas via their blogs, Ozymandias's and Major Nelson's.

will sony listen to their customers' suggestions?

Where can people send their suggestions for the playstation network? Nowhere because they can't afford customer support or improvments! At least it's free and you can play resistence with 40 players. Better get used to that game because that's about it for now haha!

Your stupid

Sony listens and changes the PSN alot more then what Microsoft does to Xbox Live. It takes a long time before Microsoft does anything to fix Xbox Live. Since the last major update, they haven't done much to it at all. Its like windows, takes them months to fix simple problems and nearly a year to fix the major ones.

They need

1. Make dedicated servers for games that needs them. Like Halo2, GoW, Lost Planet, etc. Stop using an online system thats over a decade old and put that 50/year from millions of users to good use. 2. Make a XNA unified community. Make a browser or a network where XNA devs can post their creations and have it on the Xbox Live network. Currently it sucks because alot of good stuff barely makes it to anyones Xbox360.

LIVE IS THE BEST CONSOLE EXPERIENCE YOU GET WHAT YOU PAY FOR

Microsoft are the masters of software and FOOLS like the poster who is trying to tell M$ their job is deluded and I am also sure that same FOOL believes he is cleverer than the entire windows/360 programming teams,The 360 is the best ever online gaming experience and that is why you get charged a very small fee for the privilege, go play on a SO CALLED FREE SYSTEM and then you will find out what the word crap really means and as it is so called free who is gonna listen to your complaints,oh and one more thing if a so called FREE system proves successful how long do you think it will remain so called FREE after that?.Well done M$ for asking the REAL PEOPLE THAT MATTER THE PEOPLE WHO OWN XBOXES. THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS A FREE LUNCH AND SOMEWHERE DOWN THE LINE SOMEONE IS GOING TO HAVE TO PAY FOR IT.

Well done M$

The worrying thing (for PS3) is one of the posters above who obviously is clinging to his PS3 in hope looks to have gone to every 360 site he can find (Thousands)and tried desperately to spite the XBL by looking for any complaint no matter how minor but it really shows how well the 360 and live must be doing,nice one M$.

PS3 owner helping th3 360

And you and the PS3 needs a game that is actually any good but why would you mention that as that is why you are here as there are no PS3 games worth playing and their new releases are actually revamped old releases anyway.byeee
