Xbox President dismisses Sony's online efforts

Xbox president: Microsoft's Robbie Bach has dismissed Sony's PlayStation Network, saying he doesn't believe the console rival offers an online gaming service comparable to Xbox Live.

The company is currently celebrating five years of Xbox Live, with over 8 million users signed up to the service. "It's fair to say that Xbox Live is clearly head and shoulders above anything anyone else has tried to do. We don't have competition," said Bach, speaking to the LA Times.

"Sony has done some things online, but nothing that can be called a service. We have a big advantage and we're going to keep pressing that advantage," Bach added.

Robbie Bach, the 45-year-old president of the division that runs Microsoft's games and music business, talks with the Los Angeles Times before the five-year anniversary of Xbox Live.
