When my live account expires, I'm tempted to buy a ps3 instead of buying one more year for xbox live. After using live for 2 almost years I wonder why I pay money for online gaming when there are free alternatives on the PC and PSN.
The should lower the costs instead of raising it: the quality difference of Live and PSN don't differ that much anymore.


does not compute.  drop live and buy a ps3 instead?

how does that monetary equation work?

Think long term .

this gen will be over by the time that pays off.

 

How so? Sony says PS3 will have a 10-year cycle, so that's six to seven more years. Saving 6 x 50 USD = 300 USD. And let's not forget about the money saved by not having to buy hdds and a network adapter at ridiculous prices.

On topic: Pachter is an idiot, why does anyone keep quoting him? By doing so, you lend credibility to his inane drivel. Just forget he ever existed and don't bring him up again.
