Apparently PS3 owners really like their Diesel jeans

Maybe people so eager to look beautiful and fancy in a virtual world look crap in the real one... Oh, sorry, I didn't mean to be so nasty... NOT!!!

Maybe people who have to attack people who do such stuff, are really insecure and need to project their issues onto others? ;)

Jealousy perhaps, to me personally it seems some free Home content is way better than for example Megaman 9. Which I personally find quite sucky, especially for a 10 Euro game when an awesome very impressive game like Super Stardust HD is sooo much better and costs about the same (also for me personally 80's arcade or Amiga games >>>>> simplistic 80's NES style games).

I guess everyone has his or hers own preferences and interests, but I don't see a reason to question the sanity of people paying for things they like. For me Megaman 9 is extremely overpriced shovelware, but if you get a nostalgic kick from this IMO piece of crap (I wouldn't keep on the harddrive if it were free) then more power to you.

What I don't really like about this are a few things:

1) being milked money for every thng in virtual worlds too, as if real world wasn't expensive enough (I find right to pay monthly fees, but starting paying every virtual thing is quite different)

2) paying to appearance in virtual worlds, I fear this can drive them to become full of Paris Hilton wannabes only wishing to be watched, not to socialize

3) even if the risks above were somehow contained, for virtual things those prices are really excessive

4) just think if SW houses started charging extra money for every virtual graphic element in games, you dont buy them, you get untextured polygons or wireframe?

Anyway, I agree that everybody is free to spend money as he wants, but he can't claim everybody's else approval.

The obvious answer is you don't have to participate, and if SW developers get over zelous they will suffer because no one will buy their games if vital portions of their games are expensive extra downloads.
