Why does sony think im a broke ass gamer who can't afford things that he wants and needs to budget?

Oh right...cause their system costs an arm and a leg.

 

You sir are so wrong. Charge and Play adds 20 dollars to each controller, Wifi is 100 dollars. 50 dollars a year for live. That right there passes the price point for a PS3. Sorry.

 

Well... actually you can get a WiFi Adapter for less then $40 now, that works with the 360. But thats for people that want WiFi for online gaming.  (I just switched my whole house over from WiFi to Hardline, for my On-Demand and online gaming, only thing WiFi in my home are my Laptops and Wii.

Xbox Live only cost $38.99 from this sites store (Amazon), also every couple months or so Newegg.com and Amazon.com offer Xbox Live even cheaper for $29.99

You have 13 months to find a deal on Xbox Live.... not hard at all.

And I do not mind paying for a great service like XBL, it cost $0.14 a day...

$0.11 a day when buying XBL for $39.99 and $0.08 a day for XBL $29.99..

Considering all the MMO's I spent $14.95 a month on, XBL is cheap...

 

O.. and Rechargeable batteries work just as good if not better then Plug and Play kits.

everyone has rechargeable batteries lying around...

 

 

Even so, the cost of batteries(i dont have rechargeables) I need Wifi to connect to the internet from where my room is. And even after the XBL from the sites, its still going to cost more money in the entire life of the console then the PS3.

 

 

Also half the games I have played on live have been laggy as fuck. Only 1 PS3 game I have played online has been laggy. Why pay for laggy servers?

 

MMOs are differnt. They require far more people to keep the game running smoothly, and they are constanly patching the game and doing work.

 

No matter how you cut it, you pay more overalll for the 360 then you do the PS3. Also you cant just use a 3rd party hardrive, and microsoft overcharges for theirs.
