Ok here is what I do not get: why are people championing MS and deriding sony? This really isn't about those companies. It boils down to the fact that capcom doesn't want to pay money for the servers.

Now computer games have had free online since the dawn of the internet. So why shouldn't consoles get the same treatment? And if you think oh well the same thing happens on the computer you are wrong. The only online games I have (re)played and tried to go online to find the servers down are for games that were made by a company that went under.

I am not sure if this all these console games shutting down is due to console game companies being greedy and not wanting to pay the costs for a few people or if it is due to the fact that these companies have yet to figure out that they can pretty much cover their costs with ads in the matchmaking menu.
