Is it me or is this thing rotten? It is basically just an RSS feed of arcade releases.
Considering his job it to be heavily involved with the comunity you think he would maybe have some better articles.
Not to start a fanboy war, but the PS blog is 100 times better. Has lots of interesting articles and actually makes me want to go and have a look at it regularly. Am i missing something or do MS also have one like this??
 
He has various blogs doesn't he? There are ones purely for MP content though which do their job perfectly.
 
Yeah but does he also have one with articles like the PSblog too? If so i would be quite interested in it. :)
 
@ the OP: Which PS blog are you talking about btw? The one formerly known as ps3fanboy? Which i do quite enjoy reading

Edit: Ok being a right thicko today, just googled PS blog doh :rolleyes: :D
 
To be honest I quite like MajorNelson.com just to briefly summarise what is released on marketplace.

He occasionally podcasts (not that I listen) but don't think he writes articles as such.
 
I've always found Aceybongos's blog to be more interesting. Although he's blogging a lot less now he's switched to Twitter.

Used to have more articles and stuff (It does seem to just be a release log these days). Also doesn't it still have the weekly podcast he records with all sorts of gaming related info and/or guests? I listened to a few of these on specific topics and they were OK.

But do MS themselves have one? They do so much right regarding the community, so maybe i have missed something.
MJ is MS - his blog was the main comms portal if you wish to talk to them and get info. I have asked him well over ten odd questions over the years, and all received replies. The blog has undergone various makeovers over the years and the present one is just dreadful compared to the older ones.

In terms of data and content news it still is spot on, but for website functionality it is awful to use. Back in the day the PS3 itself didn't even have an MJ equivalent. No idea if that has changed or what but I recall there being a major flaming match on various forums because of that.

I use his twitter feed now to keep upto date.
