Naughty Dog: PSN to Gain Edge Over Xbox Live

Continuing its support for Sony, Naughty Dog designer Richard Lemarchand went on record to state how good he thinks the PlayStation Network is over Xbox Live, and how Sony is planning to improve it.

The Uncharted developer, speaking with IGN, said that the PS3’s trophies build off of Xbox 360’s Achievements, noting that the social aspects provided by the system could become “the norm across all gaming systems.”

“I like the fact that you can pull them up and look at them in-game anywhere you are on the PS3 interface,” he added. “I think there’s going to be other things coming down the pipe that’s going to give PSN as a whole a competitive edge.”

While he would not divulge details of upcoming additions, he was excited by web connectivity and user-oriented content systems offered in Sony’s upcoming lineup.
