12 million xbox live gold users can't be wrong.... we pay for it to ensure we get as many possible games that have online multiplayer... allow me to explain... wheres the online multiplayer for Virtua tennis 3, Virtua fighter 5 and Tony hawks project 8 but to name a few on ps3? they all have online multiplayer on the 360, theres now over 150 XBLA titles and a very high percentage of them have online multiplayer...... I love Doom multiplayer or playing 2 player on Ikaruga or Streets of rage 2, if microsoft make xbox live free it wouldn't have 80%+ of games that have online multiplayer that it currently has, if it was free it would have around the same amount of games that have online multiplayer as ps3 does... a POOR 55% |
I'm not certain I see your logic.
You are suggesting that if Live goes free, that less games will be compatible with it? Despite the fact that one of the big selling points for 360 titles is such play? Am I reading you correctly?

look at how many ps3 games have online multiplayer.... and look how many playstation network games have multiplayer.... they pale in comparison to games that have online multiplayer for 360 games and xbox live.... if xbox live was free, then a lot of games that have multiplayer on xbla could cease to exist... we know the big games (Gears, Halo , forza ect) will always have multiplayer, but if xbla was free a lot of the older games would no longer have multiplayer.... now Quake 4 or Prey might not mean much to some people but they do to me and i enjoy playing them online... and on xbla i love Ikaruga, streets of rage 2 and Doom multiplayer.... also remember that SEGA never bothered to give the ps3 versions of Virtua tennis 3 or Virtua fighter 5 any multiplayer on ps3.... VT 3 and VF 5 have multiplayer on 360.... if xbla was free games like that could go by the wayside and no longer have multiplayer..... hence myself and many millions more will continue to pay for xbox live to keep those games multiplayer for many years to come.... i currently own 24 xbox 360 games and of those 24 games 22 of them have online multiplayer... i own 13 xbla games and 12 of them offer online multiplayer.... would i like to see these games lose their multiplayer capabilities sometime down the road.... HELL NO....

Wow, your post is very confusing. We're talking about Xbox Live, I'm not sure how this would mean games on Xbox Live and the Xbox Live Arcade would be worse if Xbox Live didn't have the yearly fee?
I don't think this makes any sense at all. Not having a yearly fee suddenly makes Microsoft not require that games have online or have certain features?
*edit* Also, I don't know about Virtua Tennis, but with Virtua Fighter, the lack of online was because of the arcade version I believe. They even said that they could implement it because they did with the 360, but I doubt they didn't because the PSN is free.

why do so few psn games have online multiplayer compared to xbox live.... in short, thats what im getting at and i know that if xbox live was free it would have a POOR amount of games that have online multiplayer just like psn has... thats the be all and end all of it.....
