That's a $24 dollar savings every month! Don't you agree that by paying for live it can save you money in the long run? No sony fans' attacks please! |
I believe in hte model M$ has implemented for XBL to-date, and the results have deliver on the best online experience on any console to-date. I don't really know what the PSN is like, and I've have no idea how Sony expects to offset the cost of Home, moving into the future. Looking at the the MMO model in the industry, server support is expensive and very strenous on the system. Sony has several MMO properties, so I'm not sure why they haven't look at pay-as-you need model in those game...ie POTBS Galaxies, but will use it in Home. My gut tells me that incremental improvement approach for XBL is the soundest way to go, and prices are dropping on the annual renewal of XBL.
