As long as you got a stable connection that's relatively fast you're good.. They're still adding games, library isn't as extensive as other platforms but that's kind of to be expected from something quite new. I'm guessing we're gonna see the real advantage when new hardware upgrades become available before the next gen of consoles is coming. Right now there's been the recent update so the difference is small or even still in favor of the physical consoles, I think that might change over time.

Biggest reason for me was being annoyed with a PS3 breaking down and never getting round to fixing it and spending time/money on that. This way all that can break is a controller, replacing that isn't that big a deal
