Too expensive! Thats gonna equal around £100, no way im i paying that

I agree. I hate paying $7 per month for Xbox, but $10 on PSN???? I know its optional but still...

 

Before people were saying "Ill never pay for online" and "$50 a year is too much" and now its "you got my money sony" and "good job sony"..

 

Granted You must pay to play online for xbox, but still, What happened to your never gonna pay?

The difference is that you're not paying to play online.

If you look at it, this is nothing like Xbox Live Gold. Did you read the article?

This is assuming the article is true, which we do have to assume if we assume that $10/month is the real price.

Yeah i konw its nothing like XBL, But people swore up and down they wont pay. So does that mean Paying for XBL is fine now? I know online is still free for PSN but your still paying, additional features or not. Just like Gold has additional features that silver doesnt, your still paying.

 

and Free online gaming > XBLG

i don't get this...

you know that this is nothing like xbl and that people "swore up and down" that they woudn't pay FOR ONLINE GAMING. so what is being argued here?

psn+ isn't required for online gaming. it's an added service like paying for a warranty. not buying the warranty won't make your purchase any worse (like not buying xbl).

My point is that if your goign to pay $10  (which is more than XBL) Whey not pay for the superior online service? Im happy that PSN isnt making people pay, but no matter what features are included in premium PSN, XBL will still be better, until they do a complete dashboard overhaul. So paying seems pointless if you have both systems.

 

IMO, of course.

We don't know what other features will come alongisde these PSN+ features.  I would expect for a much improved friends list for all users, for example, alongside these premium features.

Also, cloud saving, the PRP, and first hour demos for *all* games are features that this service will provide that XBL does not have.

I think it's somewhat silly that you're making statements about what people should buy based on a rumored and most likely incomplete feature list.
